It sounds like a neat idea. A quick website recommendation ... Could you increase the resolution on the pictures? Many people -- old owners as well as potential owners -- attempt to look for details on the bikes or new items and the relatively low resolution photos make discerning anything meaningful difficult. Thanks for your time and consideration. I just read about the bag. It sounds like a neat idea.

Right now, if I'm stuck with a chain, I was wondering if you have any nuvinci built up wheels I can buy to replace my Sachs 3x7 wheel on my circa 1999 bike. I would likely have to get an eccentric BB or a single speed conversion chain tensioner. Have you guys been involved in such a project? -- David Hi, clearly I’ll have to wait for my next Friday to get a belt.

However, I do use the quick fold + beam removal when packing into a soft bag for train travel. I guess the quick fold would be less quick but if the other design problem (removal and re-tensioning) was solved (presumably an eccentric bottom bracket and/or re-designed dropouts won't work, I could cope with the extra inconvenience in order to have Rohloff and Gates. And as I get older that 16 inch gear is looking attractive.

But we only travel with our BF tandem. We use Pocket bikes for commuting because they're nimble, compact, lightweight, and high performance, and you can throw them in a trunk if you have a flat or mechanical breakdown. For non-tikit commuters, carbon drive would be great, and we'd be willing to accept compromises on packability and folding speed. I can understand if that's too far out of the BF mainstream, though.
