I might be missing something here. 0.7m is awful short for a standard bike. Granted, my bike is on the large side for a standard bike (at 6'2" (1.88m) in length, it's just 4" short of the maximum length allowed on the vast majority of transit systems (6'6" or 1.98m). City of Portland (and likely soon, USDOT) consider a single bicycle parking space as minimum 3'x6' (though I'd really prefer it, and wouldn't be surprised, if they bumped that up to 7' or 8' just to be consistent with 6'6" being a popular maxlength requirement and provide for a little extra clearance given inconsistencies with locking strategies between riders).
