Nice idea.. how about just having trains actually let real bikes on without all the grief?

tbh. the wheel looks more cumbersome after it's been folded.

i saw it at the RCA show last year, it doesn't actually work. you need to run a tub on it and when you fold it, you need to let all the air out. a totally impractical design IMO.

32h is the new 32h - steel is real, and that goes for spokes too ;)

eeehhhh · 4th February 2008

Can't see it taking off to be honest. If you need a bike that compact, you'd get a Brompton. Mine is just as fast as any hybrid I've ever ridden, if not faster. Must be quite heavy too.
