The Kansi folder managed being small while maintaining chain tension, which would be perfect for a fixed folder. Sadly the manufacturing quality was apparently crap. But the idea was better.

Guy at our office had this exact bike, and you're right about the build quality. The hinge stretched/loosened and when he tried to get hold a replacement, I believe the manufacturer has now gone out of business. Had a coaster brake too! Still, props for the genuine Skyways...

Any hinge like that, be it's Dahon, Kansi, Raleigh, whatever is always the weakest part of those design.

I can't believed they're still building them like that.
