Hi Ernie, 

I'm 5'-7" 79/80-ish PBH and owned a 54cm Hunq for a short time. With its 700C 
wheels the standover was nil (why I sold it), but the reach to the Bullmoose 
Bars was perfect. 

I also owned a 52cm NWT which was way too small, and currently have a Bike 
Friday Tikit 56cm that fits great for the upright position I need now 
(arthritis) with an 8cm stem, and felt good with its original 10cm, too. I 
don't know how much taller you are - tall enough to comfortably straddle a 54 
Hunq - but I'm fairly certain you need at least a 56cm Bike Friday. 

A note about folding bikes and "folding" bikes: If you're hopping trains every 
day I can't recommend most BFs, including the NWT. The fold is slow and 
finicky, and the steering mast pops off with no place to attach it to the bike. 
It's really more of a packable bike, which was BF's original mission..it was 
intended to break down into a suitcase for touring journeys. The only 
quick-fold bikes they make are the current Pakit, and my Tikit which is out of 
production. For the kind of commuting you want to do I think you would need one 
of those, or maybe a Brompton.
