Frame
Frame
Hi-Ten steel frame. The easy lateral-fold system means the bike takes up little space: at home, at the office, in the boot of a car or in a camper... you'll forget your bike is even there. In order to improve your bike's stability once folded, the frame is equipped with a bike stand under its base.
Suspension Fork
Hi-ten steel fork for greater durability.
Drivetrain
Crank

Wheels
Rims
20-inch, single-wall rims. Steel hub. System that holds the wheels together, making it easier to handle and store the bike once folded.
