Putting the bike together is very easy,and can be done on no time. I have a marking on the main tube, so the rear is easily adjusted to suit my x-seam every time. So just slide the rear part on the main tube, "feel" the centering slot on the main tube with the centering blot and tighten it, then just tighten two pinch bolts, connect the rear brake and that's it ! As you can see most of the time I've spent connecting the rear brake cable,(fiddly Ciamillo caliper brake) but if you just remove the whole caliper brake from the frame it's much faster, or even faster if you use V-brakes and then it's just the arm that holds the cable that has to be removed. Packing dimensions are around 110cm long, and 95cm high(with the wheel). About 40cm wide if placed one next to each other as in the beginning of the video, so it can easily be sowed away in a trunk of even the smallest of hatchbacks (usually with the top trunk cover removed) or just laid on it's side if you fold the rear seats, or have a car with a big trunk ;) This bike should fit inside most upright bike transport bags, maybe even without removing the front(drive) wheel. Clever ;)
