Not quite!
Yes they do fit in suitcase.
But they usually custom 2 piece handlebars, and you do have take the pedals off(unless your chainring has more then 60 tooth, the you have take the chainring off). They do make folding pedals.
But, it does ride like a real bike and you don't have to worry about extra airline charges, or space on the train(which is why i bought it in the first place), plus the suitcase converts into a trailer for training
