Thanks for that link Ed, but no, it's not what I'm speaking of. The link you have posted appears to be a simplified and condensed summary of the situation and naturally the TFL website would rather tell you not to take your bike on the bus - I'd tell you that if I worked for them. The TFL website quite frequently gives me false information though (on train times, for example) so I am wont not to trust it.
However, I have read another, very dense, dull and long document (possibly from a link from this here very same forum) on bus rules & regulations which quite clearly states my original assertion that taking bikes on the bus - any kind of bike - is up to the driver's discretion. Unfortunately I can't be bothered to find the link, sorry. I'm also terribly sorry that you felt insulted!
