Conclusion:
For a nondescript Folding the A2B Kuo prescht neatly by his powerful rear engine forward. Here also like the comfortable sitting position, but the comfort is at the space savers to more behind. The engine is expected to turn down some harmony. Nevertheless, the favorable fighting wheel to the test victory — and only fails due to the rather short range.
