One comment that is frequently made by budding bike commuters who want to buy a new bike for their commuting needs is that it's hard!  Not only do you have to find the perfect bike for your style of riding, you also have the problem of having to buy all the components that go along with the bike - lights, pump, etc.  What if there was one bike that fulfilled ALL your cycling needs in one fell swoop?  

The Dahon Ios may just be that bike.  In an Interbike TV broadcast, David Bernstein from the Fredcast Cycling podcast interviews Josh Hon of Dahon, the folding bike manufacturer.  The demonstration of the Ios and its features is absolutely jaw dropping at times. This may be the one bike that has it all - and it'll fit in your trunk, under your desk at work, on the bus, wherever you want to put it.  

The bike won a major award at Eurobike earlier this year, and now it's poising itself to be a hit over here in the States as well.  Check out the video!
