Mark, I have one and have ridden it a bit. I'm still waiting on a nylon
case before trying to carry it in my Archer. My impressions so far are that
1. You need to be competent at adjusting brakes and derailleurs since the
factory doesn't get it quite right 2. It folds relatively easily and I
think I will be able to pass it through the front door to get it into the
baggage compartment and 3. It will probably turn out to be a decent bike,
although not as good as my similarly priced Rock Hopper.

Anyone have these? I am looking at the Mountain Bike version. I don't care
much for the components (since I typically "roll my own"), but Montague
refuses to answer my emails about just buying the frames so I can build a
decent bike around it...

SOOO, I am just interested in anyone's personal experience with these

bikes,
how easy they are to throw in and out of your aircraft, and how useful

they
have been when traveling.

TIA
