(Ditching the cassette and derailler to save a kg is an improvement already id say). I will though concur though that I find the "Bootleg" Cinelli extension pretty lame. Cinelli has a super strong brand name already, dont see why they need to tarnish it with this seemingly exxxxtreme nonsense.If I ever get a folder upper, it's gonna be the Bike Friday Tikit. No contest.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQscBxx7wLE Perhaps it’s an improvement on Dahon’s design? (Ditching the cassette and derailler to save a kg is an improvement already id say).

I see why Cinelli only took a month to "develop" it, they took an existing bike and spent the rest of the time coming up with a silly name. Furthermore, I don't see a mention of this bike on the Well-Tech website receiving any award. This is a non-story. I agree with Bartek, this bike is clearly a rebranded Dahon bike.

I really don't understand what the fuss is all about... Sorry, but what is the difference between this bike, and the Dahon Speed P8 besides the internal hub gear?
