whenever you get a chance, i'm curious about your rucksack setup. maybe you can take a photo of it?

i thought my next bike would be a bike friday pocket companion or new world tourist highly customized, but i'm leaning more towards a bike where front wheel removal or frame separation are part of the intended fold. i really like the idea of putting the front part of bike/wheel in a bag, strapping onto my backpack and carrying the rest. i might consider 24" wheels, but for not mostly 20"

when i emailed moulton, they told me it wasn't made for frequent separation, any ideas why?

...oh and i'm anti-rolling. its either slower than normal walking speed, or a little awkward for your arm to support keeping level. beyond that, i don't like walking around rolling a folded bike, just feels uncomfortable in public, all the stares.
