Even when they are allowed, you may not want big sweeping bars. If it's MUNI metro you are talking about, then you shouldn't bother with a bike.
Having said that, I take a regular frame on BART, but I beat the rush.
Good point. I am taking the Caltrain, so I don't really want constraints on frame size (I would prefer not to ride a folding bike).
I may take the BART on occasion, so it's good to know that beating the rush is a factor
