That's a poorly thought out response...
I carry my bikes on the bus all the time. It's a great way to get into town and still be looking cool and professional. Then I can ride home, when sweating won't be objectionable.
I'm sorry for the O.P. s loss. It may be that CF forks are too fragile for the bus. I have fenders on my bike and when neccessary I can slide the hook under my fender. But I don't unless the bus driver fusses.
