20" folder that covers the chain ring
I want a 20" folder but need the chainring covered/protected when I fold it, a la the Brompton. Does such a bike exist? I have a Brompton, but want a bike suitable for longer training rides (I know some people do 20 or 50 miles or whatever on a Brompton and say it works great for them. I'm not among them...). Thanks

I have a disc chainguard on my 53t crankset on my Bike Friday.
they have a chain hook to catch the chain when it folds
and I have added a Chainminder around the seat tube to keep the chain on
when the rear swings under..
R'off + chaintensioner..
It could be a feature on a 451 wheel Pocket Rocket too.. they do a BTO setup ..

If it's a SS or internal hub,you can go with Tern's protector(or buy the wire conduit that it's made from). That will keep everything covered up.
