Folders! Foldable bicycles, minivelos and demontables

Not wrong way round. Spin the front wheel so it tucks under.
I have the older version of that style of frame.
I'll try and get a picture of it folded later, it's in the loft.

Add to thar, with it spun you can use the crank to lock it together.

That makes sense.

Undo the allen screw which is the expander (If it's like the Dahon), turn round so they fold on the other side.

That's what I was thinking but I will test the other suggestions first

Other suggestion I think is the way to go.

Strutt Worksong. From Ebay a snip at £6500. Shame about the awful mudguard fitting, the upside down rear reflector. I assume the one on the front is for low flying traffic?

Hmmm I am not so sure now? The wheel won't spin all the way round the other way and this bike which looks like a current version of mine indicates it should be folded the way I did it?

Try turning the bars as I first suggested? Have you tried spinning the wheel both ways? Have to say yours looks correct when compared to the bike in the link.

I think if the fold works as you put it away on the train it should be fine. It still looks a bit awkward. I would def try fixing it. But I am a bit of a neat freak when it comes to these sort of things..
