I just saw this bike in NYC CL via my RSS reader... by the time I clicked through to the original CL ad, it was deleted. I wonder who snatched this one up?
Bike that folds (Gramercy) $175
My son has left NYC to practice medicine overseas!! Unfortuniately, he left a lot of useless items in our apartment. My husband and myself need the room!!

I understand that this is a bike that is English in design, and apparently folds up. I think it is called a Prompton Folding Bicycle. I'm not sure how to get it to look like a regular bike, but I guess with a little work, it does. I believe my son bought this bike 2 or 3 years ago. It is a very pleasant colour of green. Looking for a quick sale. Thank You
I wouldn't mind a 'Prompton' for $175!!!

Sounds like the early days of Japanese knock-offs (the 1950's) when the copied products carried names similar to, but slightly different than the originals....or it just might have be a Brompton? Will we ever know?

Regarding the "Prompton" in NYC, I e-mailed the seller this morning and made it before the ad got deleted. I didn't get a response. :(

That seller needs a lesson in basic marketing - rule #1 Show the customer the merchandise. Smartarse jokes will not substitute.

That is the most horrible contraption I ever set eyes on. Who could have thought that was a good idea, let alone put money into manufacturing it? Jeeez - it's enough to destroy your faith in human nature and innate common sense.

And I was embarrassed about riding on a strida lookalike? I obviously need to re-calibrate my ridiculousness meter.

Ummm......, does this mean you're not going to bid on it and then fly over here to pick it up? :D

You know, you really are a most perceptive man.

:lol:

No - I think I might just struggle with myself and resist the temptation. Of course, if I weaken, there will be another along soon enough - 2045 maybe, when I'm long dead - hopefully.

Oh, and one more thing - I wanted to point out that the answer to your rhetorical question is in the Craigslist ad:

"It was designed by an engineer in the aerospace industry in England that wanted a folding bike that didn't look like one (circa 1980's - early 90's)."

I would have guessed Japanese origins, myself.

That's a national disgrace.

I must go and hang myself.
