Anemos vs Brompton vs Ori
 
Anemos is a new Chinese folding bike brand. They currently offer three "Zippy" models with 20" wheels, rear suspension, and caster wheels. Here are some pictures of an Anemos side by side with a Brompton and an Ori:

Looks interesting, i like folding fork. 18inch wheel??

Looks good. They've eliminated the need for a chain tensioner by putting the bottom bracket on the folding rear section. . . the tensioner is one of my most hated aspects of the Brompton, adding loads of friction to the drivetrain.
However, the fold is not particularly tidy with the chainset protruding rearwards as it does.

If I could choose one it would be the OMS then the ORi, then the Brompton. As I have the later two bikes ! (Ori = almost)
Else ORI verse OMS, would be my happy difficult decision.

I sure some of you will drop down dead in shock.

In the case of Dahon, you might have to be willing to wait three months every time you need a part. That's my experience with the hinge on my Speed. I've just replaced mine for the third time, and I've just discovered a crack in the frame. Just ordered a Brompton (which, ironically, is going to take them three months to build, but if it's reliable and they're quick about shipping parts, as my LBS assures me, it'll be well worth it).

(If I somehow could afford one of those bikes...) that would be my selection order for those 3 bikes as well... OMS, ORi then Brompton.
