Default How bendy is a bendy bus?

I have seen exactly this - on Wednesday 19th there were a number of
bendy-buses without destination blinds that seemed to be following the
38's route.

Is it bendy enough to make the left turn from New Oxford Street into
Charing Cross Road, and the turns between Charing Cross Road and
Shaftesbury Avenue? Oh, and the left turn into Piccadilly too?

I ask as the 38 converts to bendy operation soon, and I'll be
interested to see how easily (or not) they can make those movements...


You didn't mention the problems bendies on the 73 already have getting
into New Oxford Street from Bloomsbury Street.

I must say I'm surprised not to have seen a bendy on trials on the 38
route yet.
