It does depend a bit on what it weighs and how it rides. If the case is
structural and integral, then it need not be heavy; and if the geometry
and suspension are sufficiently sorted it may ride adequately. And you can
take it on those forms of public transport which dislike bikes without any
difficulty.

So I'd personally withhold judgement until I knew someone whose judgement I
respected who had actually ridden one. It doesn't look promising, I'll
admit.

Great idea, suitcase looks savy. I guess its another angle on the
folding bike.
