24" folder small enough to take onto a bus (I know they advertise it as being able to, but I wonder if that would be the case in practice)?
1st passenger at the far end of the route you will have more room..
Fold in half bikes are Wide by nature. bigger wheels wont help..
Front of bus racks for 2 bikes if you are number 3 a big package Folder will be a PIA on a full Bus.
