Also see www.yikebike.com, an interesting concept. Short range and not yet available in the U.S. But cute, 22 pounds, it folds.... might be just the thing for a short trip into town.

Back to VW

. . . so back to the VW . . . does anyone know the specs? It looks like it is not commercially available yet, so nothing is on their web site.
