Thanks for the link. I'm a fan of little-wheeled bikes myself, owning both a Bike Friday and a Dahon. I wouldn't mind adding a Moulton to the collection someday. For some reason people always think that little wheels are slower, but I've found that my performance is pretty much the same whether I'm on my 451-wheeled Friday or a 700C road bike. It's all in the gearing.

DaveDid his suspension system inspire your design of the DKS?

Yep....Sir Alex and Colin Chapman (founder of Lotus) are the greats of our time. Both use simplicity and redundancy (having one part perform more than one function) as principal design elements.....and both feel that suspension is vital for performance.

True inspirations.
