What is a Folding Bike?
A bike that is designed to be folded for ease of storage and carrying. It is ideal where storage space is at a premium. Great for camping, caravanning and while commuting by public transport. Special bags can be supplied to enable the bike to be easily carried on the shoulder. For more information on folding bikes see our Folding Bikes Buying Guide.
