To make a BMX rideable while seated (properly rideable with same seat height as on a 700c bike) the seat post needs to be around 500mm, yes that's half a metre! Although thinking about it a Brompton post must be that long.
That is what is wrong with a BMX. These bikes give the advantages? of 20 inch wheels whilst still giving a good ride position - well I presume they do, I have never ridden one so am only guessing on that.
