The fender is my main concern. I called my local bike shop, and they couldn't say whether the bike would fit. Worst case, they can take off the fender, but I'd rather not do that.
The bus guidelines for bicycles clearly state that the hook holding the bike in place needs to contact the tire directly. So maybe I need to give up on the idea of taking this bicycle on the bus. :-( The guidelines also state that up to 2 bikes are allowed inside of the bus (assuming the area for wheelchairs is not being used), but I'm not sure I can count on that...maybe I will have to take the bus a few times without my bike to see how busy it gets.
I have no trouble lifting my bicycle.
Thanks for responding!
