Folding bike for a roadie?

Hello,

I fly for a living and get to go to lots of cool places. And usually these are great places to ride a bike, except I don't have one with me. I've thought for a while that it'd be great to have a nice folding bike I could take with me but hadn't really looked seriously.

I ride roads, I don't do anything off-road or unpaved trails.

What companies should I look at? I've been perusing the forum and have looked at Dahon, they seem to have some nice folding road bikes.

A few other questions. None of the bikes I've seen have drop bars but a few have TT bars. Can I put drop ends on the flat bar bikes? What about the pedals? I'd like to put on clip-less but 1) Some of the bikes have special, folding pedals and 2) How far would the pedals stick out from the folded bike?
