Keep in mind the paratrooper has you awkwardly holding the front tire when fully folded. I prefer the 26″ Dahon systems because of that.
If you have a single folding bike, get something in the 20″ range, the bigger folders won’t fit in a busy train and can even be a nuisance in a car.
The Torpado seems nice enough, and can be obtained with a 3v hub if you want to fully enclose the chain (but it will be a lesser ride if you have any elevation).
