I'm wondering whether I could get a 20" wheel bike into a suitcase. You'd certainly have to take off the fork and wheels. The frames are so much smaller that if one is used to working on adult bikes one might have the wrong expectations. I'm unfamiliar with purchasing stuff in other countries but I understand that shipping costs, tariffs and VATs can add up.

Thanks. I have a bunch of half-written stuff; but the kiddies have reached the age where they want to be independent yet still have you around. It leaves very little time for other things. But it's good to know that someone looks at it.
You can certainly get a 20" folder into a suitcase, and you should not have to remove the fork. You will have to remove the wheels, and some other components depending upon the model.
