Overview
A chromoly steel folding frame is what lets this city bike collapse for compact storage. A rear derailleur with a trigger shifter handles gearing, and caliper brakes stop small aluminum wheels.
Folding down for storage is the purpose here, and the included fenders, bell, pump and folding pedals mean little extra is needed to start commuting. The limits are a rigid frame and small wheels, which suit paved urban terrain and not trails.
Who it's for
Apartment dwellers and commuters with limited storage get the most from this design. Riders over the stated weight limit, or those wanting rough terrain capability, should look at other designs.
Pros and cons
- Folds for compact storage
- Fenders, bell and pump included
- Trigger shifter with rear derailleur
- Chromoly steel frame
- Rigid frame, no suspension
- Caliper brakes only
- Paved roads and urban terrain only
- Rider weight is capped
Performance notes
Small wheels and a rigid frame make the ride direct and quick to turn on smooth pavement, with road bumps passed to the rider since there is no suspension. The rear derailleur and trigger shifter set the gear spread, and the chromoly steel frame carries the load.
