    Lots of solid improvements. I have an XP3 that I pre-ordered 2.5 years ago and it still works great. I’ve definitely put money in to upkeep/upgrades with better tires, brakes, brake pads, headlight, and more. It has over 550 miles on it and keeps going.

    Some things I’d love to see from the standpoint of a user that actually folds their bike and stuffs it in to a vehicle…

    1. 68 lbs. is heavy (yes I know they make a lite version but it’s too limited).
    2. Add a catch that locks the folded halves together, makes it more secure when lifting and transporting a folded bike (I use these ROK Straps 12’-42’ Adjustable Pack Strap but having something integrated would be nice)
    3. Add bump-stops or something to prevent metal on metal scraping when folded (I stick a piece of cardboard or styrofoam in between)
