Like to seee a rack on it though. Always feel a towney bike should have a rack you can at least put a rackpack on. Sod carrying a bottle of wine in a rucksack, just way too dangerous.Finally! A ready made Bafang mid-drive 20" wheeled folding bike! At last, a bike manufacturer has realised the advantages of a mid-moror driving 20" wheels. Might be interesting, but not a serious suggestion, belt drive, torque sensored, expensive, and I don't know much about the Bafang M820 motor.
@Woosh and @Wisper Bikes should also blatantly copy me and make something like this IMHO. Fatsos will cease complaining about hills.

Dahon's old folders all had mudguards and pannier racks, or facilty to bolt practical usable ones on. My Helios has both Their newer models might too? There is a 200W Tongsheng mid driven 20" wheeled folding Dahon, but not for the UK - rubbish compared to my conversion, obviously.Like to seee a rack on it though.
