Folders! Foldable bicycles, minivelos and demontables

This has got me quite excited. Some very clever design. Definitely worth reading imo.

Edit watch the fold videos, they say it unfolds in one second and it actually looks like it does.

I was going to say it's just a standard folder with some pretty curves, then I noticed the fork, which make look at the non drive side, which made me smile.




if it hadn't been built to a price point with the V brakes instead of hub brakes I'd been very much in love.

also, it looks like a quick coupler under the top tube for the cables, which would be a nice addition.


sorry, yer linked worked really.

Picked up this machine today. A Bridgestone Transit T200CS Carbon:

I will be added to my collection (or rather mrs non-fixie's, as she's more Japanese-sized) of quirky prize-winning Bridgestone designs.

A place which it shares with a GR-27 Grantech:

And a (non-folding) Blouson:

That Blouson...

It’s pre ‘98 but I had to share the madness.

A friend has one and I like the idea that you can transform it into a single seater.
