Jon Whyte is an ex-Formula 1 designer, famous for the PRST-1 Whyte MTB. He has said that he spent eight to nine times more time on the development of this project than the work he did on the Whyte mountain bikes. The well known importer ATB Sales is producing Jon Whyte's folding bikes under the Mezzo brand name.

Is it then any wonder that the advent of this folding bike has whetted the appetite of so many who normally feast on ‘full bodied’ wheels be they savoury or sweet. This ‘Boffin’s Banquet’ is dripping with ergonomic delights, straight from the latest compo. cookbooks.

Attached to the MEZZO ‘FEEL-GOOD’ FRAME,  is  GENIUS AT EVERY JOINT.  This bike can be unfolded in less than 10 seconds, is very lightweight at around 11 Kg complete with rack, mudguards, etc. When folded it’s very compact making it ideal for commuting and those longer rides alike.

• Big Bike ride   A non-folding main beam improves performance by removing flex, giving the Mezzo Folding Bike the feel and stability of a larger rigid bike.

This bike is to say the least impressive , we think  it is set to sell in large numbers for it’s category, a real winner with commuters on account of it’s size, low weight and speed of fold and unfolding.  The Anodized finish of these D9’s is especially durable and ideal for the hard life that many of these folders receive.

We list below some of the recent comments that various mags. etc. have said concerning the Mezzo.

“Hot Buy. Excellent design makes for a smart, small fold and nippy bike” Stuff magazine March 2006

“The Mezzo has considerably less of the ‘twitchy’ handling that can put people off city folders”

“The Mezzo is a very impressive, strikingly styled folder - if you don’t get on with Brompton’s skittish handling, it could well be the right one for you - an impressive debut” Cycling Plus March 2006

“ The Mezzo rode like a proper road bike, folded in one movement and had an excellent four-speed gear set. we rest our case.” Motor Caravan December 2005 Geoff Smith

“ A super-quick and compact fold and a good ride” VeloVision December 2005 Peter Eland

“On the road, everyone is hugely impressed by the stability- by far the best 16 inch wheeled bike in terms of neutral handling, and better than many 20 inch wheeled machines...” Folding Society Website - Sept 2005  Mike Hessey
