Wonderful! Bike Fridays are a little funny looking compared to full-sized bikes, but they are so fun to ride and versatile.
Congratulations on your new bike.

Oh, that's just darling! (I have a Bike Friday Pocket Crusoe so am slightly biased.
) How did you get a chainring to match? I've never seen that -- neato!
Enjoy the ride!!!

They're bikes worth being biased for!

I ordered the power raspberry color, and they did the rest. Dunno specifically how the chainring got to be the same color, but I'm not complaining. It is really cool

I think the chainring is the same color when you only have one ring in the front. Looks like that's the dual drive, right?
On the seat mast - make sure you tighten the quick release. It shouldn't more until you release it, when you're ready to fold.
Pretty bike I was between that color and the purple, and I got the purple...

Neat-looking bike. The color of the Brooks saddle really complements the bike color. I'm not a big fan of pink, but that raspberry--yum! Enjoy!

The seat mast is fine. The problem I was having with the seat is that it wouldn't stay at the angle I set it at. The seat post had a "hook" shaped piece of metal and a single screw to hold the seat on and in place. Except the screw was in a "neutral" position when the seat was tilted nose-up, and it kept wanting to return to that position. I replaced the seatpost with a Thompson one, that is much more stable. I just couldn't have my bike trying to throw me off like that!
I was debating between raspberry and candy apple red. You see which one I chose
