Watch out Brompton!

Something new is around the bend

And it's ace! This is the new Bike Friday 'Tikit' (Yay to palindromes) out in the US in a few weeks. BF have a really good reputation for high end packable touring bikes which have always tempted me but they take more than a wee while to dissassemble and pack into their towable cases. So not great for commuting then.

This new fella - as you can see by the vid - is a different animal all together. Expect it to cost a shedload - thanks to the amazingly 'a dollar on a US import nearly equals a pound even though a dollar actually only equals a 50p piece' problem we seem to get here - but boy - look at how easily it folds! And the clever little push handle. I love it. I'd work evenings for a month for an ultra-light fixie Tikit. In baby blue. Or hospital green. Mmm....
