ChipasFixed, thanks for insight. Regarding comfty ride, it seems that the CroMo rear construction works as a suspension. Could you test it? Does it provide certain give if you put your weight on the saddle?
What I like in comparison to my Dahon Mu is, that is doesn't have a hinge in the main tube. Other than Birdy or bigger Bike Friday the Tikit's URT design can handle gear hubs or single speed setups without tensioner (version with horizontal dropouts). Folding speed and size seems to be pretty similar to the Dahon's.
