Hello,Every one I've seen, including my own Dahon, weighs at least 25#. If
Can anyone offer suggestions or point me to a web site where i could
get one of those fold-up bicycles i can toss in the back of the plane.
You know the ones you see around Osh Kosh and Sun'n'fun.
you're gonna "toss" 'em, cinch up your jockstrap first. When you've
picked one out, be sure to ride it a ways (The ones with tiny wheels
tend to feel squirrely. You may wind up choosing 20", rather than 16"
wheels for the sake of a less exciting ride.), and investigate how
easy it is to insert the folded bike into your airplane and how much
space is left for other stuff once it's aboard.
The Wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folding_bicycle
has links to other sites. If you're near a large Canadian city, you
should have no trouble finding at least a Dahon dealer. Other makes
are likely to be hard to find, although you may have an advantage over
us Yanks in terms of finding a Brompton or a Moulton.
