Thank you for your input @c00ps - yeah that's what I gathered so far, they're very flexy but people like them anyways

Kingpins are harder to find here, on the other hand we have lots of oldschool German / former East Germany brand folding bikes around here - unfortunately they became quite popular with all the "retro" loving hipsters so they often sell in the 3-digit-range, which is clearly nuts.
Yeah now that you mention it the long cables of course make sense, they do look ridiculous though (I've seen a "country" version of the bike where they are guided / routed in some way though)..
