If the height is only 120cm then just remove the front wheel, then it should about 30x70x100.I think they'd be splitting hairs if the train management would bar you from entering the train.

Not totally unrelated: In Sweden you care not allowed to transport bikes on the train. Folder solutions like your bike become important when confronted with such bad service.

Thanks Dirk for the info. Unfortunately, the bike measures 120cm x 70cm x 30cm.  The case that it fits when disassembled is 78cm x 49cm x 30cm, close to airline standard luggage requirement (L+W+H):62 in / 158 cm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDQQZ0jAFBQ  However, riding around with the hard case is not quite practical:)  Perhaps a soft bag is what I need for the train... 

Didn't think about the folding speed but it's a nice feature that I sometimes wish for the Bipolar to have quicker release (magnet?).   Bike Friday seems to be holding the overall record, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQscBxx7wLE

Very neat! The "apartment pivot" allowing for a 180degrees turn really shows a lot of uses. In Danmark the max luggage size is 100cm x 60cm x 30cm. If you are over that they might refuse you on the train. Your bike is quite close to these measurements? If so you just made the fastest folder in the world ;-)

Hi All,

2 donor training wheels are added to the headrest for walking python bike upright.  The small footprint is convenient/safer for walking in pedestrian traffic, taking the training, and space saving for storage.  Folding pedals and chain ring guard would be nice additions... http://youtu.be/wTq2N1fOKgo

Cheers,
