I've got a Dahon MuXL. More cushy on Big Apples than my Wilbury on GB Hetres. Steering feels twitchy for the first 100-200m then my muscle-memory adapts.
Just a wee bit slower than the Wilbury on my standard 15km commute. Lack of hand positions is my only gripe. I run wrapped albatross on my Riv, so I have 3.6 distinct hand holds. Dahon, basically 1. Love the Nexus-8 on the MuXL too. Feel envy every time a Brompton rider does the rear-wheel tuck 'n park trick. Still lust after a Moulton SST.
