Bike Friday OSATA (One Size Adjusts To All), designed for bicycle schools, especially the Safe Routes to School program to encourage more kids to walk or bike to school. Notice the adjustable telescoping main tube (notice the two small clamp bolts) for adjustable reach:

I showed this bike because the famous 16" Fnhon Gust is not available in Europe.
Sure buddy, as correct as always. Why didn't you show this bike?: https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...9099a3b982.jpg Decathlon is not the first seriously promoting folders with around 80cm wheelbase for people up to 1.95m tall, may i say it - BIRDY Of course those bikes are a pain to ride for people from a certain height. Thats why there is enough options with reasonable wheelsbase |

Thats why there is enough options with reasonable wheelsbase The wheelbase of the ETRTO355 and ETRTO406 Birdy is about 102cm similar to the one of the Brompton. There are two stem with different angle to the front, the "comfort" for smaller people, the "Sport" for taller people. Both have two handlebar positions, one with a shorter reach, the second with a longer reach. And the stem height can be adjusted. The seatpost has two positions, one with a positive offset, one with a negative offset (same has the Brompton Pentaclip, but the Pentaclip has also to positions in height). |

Don't worry, all serious bike manufacturers and cyclists know this.
Liv, Giant specific range for ladies and one of the only major brand focused towards women, offers bikes which are XS or XXS with 650B wheels and wider saddles but still with large handle bars (380 - 400) long stem and long crankset 170mm (which are really for rider with a inseam of 800/850mm). The only manufacturer/assembler/distributor I know of who offers a proper range is HUP; they can build a bike from 700c frame from size 37 to 58 with stem going from 30 to 130, curly handlebar from 32 to 44 (mega large) and crankset from 125 to 175. |
