Puch Picnic folder.....been riding this to work recently after buying it on a whim and I really like it. Single speed (I bought it with the dubious mag wheels on it) but I replaced the original cotter-pin crank & bb with a cartridge bb and Shimano 105 road chainset (52t) and the gearing is spot on. Lowering the seat and handlebars would see this fold quite compact I reckon. I could do that and measure up if that helps?
The Puch is a good basis to modify as, unlike the Raleigh Stowaway, as threads/sizing for bb are euro standard, meaning you can fit std shimano bottom brackets (and I guess headset sizes are std too).
