Could it be some sort of friction / resistance mechanism to counter steer 
independently?  I have tightened my handle-bar half-way, to balance hand and 
foot input.  It feels less confusing but hand input still seems unnecessary 
15mph for python.


I like the folding and power transfer to the rear wheel via the middle small 
wheel.  Not sure about the seat though, there are plenty of folding bikes with 
similar level of pain...
