Hello Urbanis

Is it a matter of size? I mean are any bikes, folding or otherwise allowed in these places.

I have a few folders and my Brompton I can take into most places in London but some will not allow any bike in,regardless of size ( TESCO FOR EXAMPLE!!!! ).

There has been much mention of the Downtube Mini being a compact fold, do you not think it's small enough? Is the Carry Me smaller?

Bottom line is I would certainly recommend the Brompton, if finances will allow (or the much touted copy, the Merc ). Searching this forum will present you with plenty of angles on the pros and cons of these particular bikes.

Hope you find a solution.
