The only thing they have in common is they both use an idler gear to achieve a high enough gear ratio without going to an oversized chainring.

The mobiky is French designed and is a well thought-out professional design... not everyone's cup of tea as I understand it, but in an entirely different league in my book to this one.

Obviously being sold in the UK because of the currency. Yeah, I'm curious too if it would sell at that price.
