Of couse that will vary based on frame size, stack height and stem angle, but thats how mine ended up with so it will difffer for other users.
So I'd have to remove the bars for the most compact fold.
In most cases so far, I have not found a need to though.
Getting into a car trunk, storing at home, getting on the train are all fine w/o removing the bars.
The occasion that will need bar removal will be when I pack the bike for air travel.
I'll be packing up the bike for air travel soon.
Already making up a custom box, and I'll update it when thats done.
