Anyone have one of these? Fit one of these?

Another post seeking a "travel bike" made me look into Bike Friday again. Apparently, now they have a Titan-Flex-esque model called the "Air Friday" with a titanium suspension beam. Looks like a pretty sweet setup for those road-warrior types. Lose the drop bars and STI for an integrated cockpit and you'd have a race ready, uber portable ride. Only drawbacks I can see right now are the lack of an aero front wheel (it'd be easy to build your own cover for the rear), limited tyre selection and possibly hydration options (though I suppose you'd face the same with any "exotic" bike).

Thoughts? Comments? Experiences?

I think HED and Aerospoke both make 20" front aero wheels. I'd be concerned with shift quality up front and torsional drivetrain rigidity.

Tufo makes 20" tubulars that would fit it too, so you could [i]really[/i] race on it ...
