Dutch bycicles (those with an "open frame") are rather cumbersome, to carry, for those removing both wheels can be really complicated, the first one is somewhat hard to remove but not that much, but be careful and take pictures or you may not be able to set again the front brake (fortunately, the rear brake is the most powerful).

→Hitchhiking with another kind of bycicle
== Hitchhiking with another kind of bycicle ==
*To remove a bycicle you typically need a size 15 wrench, or a size 15 to remove the wheel bolts. An l-shaped angled wrench of the same size can also do the job.
*If you have a regular bycicle, then you can remove either one, or both wheels.
*Multiple speed bycicles have a back wheel that is really complicated to remove.
*Fixies are really simple, and all you need is to use a classic wrench. *If there is very few space you may remove the handlebar, there are two common types of handle bars, one comes of with an allen wrench (L-shape hexagonal small ones), the other has typically two caps clinged over the handlebar.
