How to Use Foldable Bikes
There are many different ways that a foldable bike can be
used. Most models are standard size and look similar to a regular bike, but they
can be folded down to approximately one-third of their regular size. Whether
for recreation, commuting or shopping, riders can use foldable bikes as a primary source of travel that is conveniently
stowed away when they reach at their destinations. People can also take them
along in the trunk of a car and go for a ride at whim.
Portable
The bike folds into a portable state in minimum time. From a standing position
with the kickstand down, the cycle rider lowers the seat and folds down the
handlebars. A lever unlocks and releases the frame, folding it into thirds. It
can be stored in a car trunk as is, or covered with a custom bag for easy
portability. Typical folding size is about 31 inches by 12 inches by 31 inches.
Commuting
Cycling is good exercise and is also eco-friendly. It also helps the rider to
avoid traffic, using it as a primary source of commuting or as a link to public
transportation. A foldable bike often has a luggage rack, which is very helpful
for bringing a suitcase or other supplies to the workplace. Some styles come
with a bungee cord to attach bags and other items to the luggage rack.
Recreation
When you choose a foldable bike, look for one that has some different gears and
a quick thumb shifter for gear adjustments on the fly. Fenders on the front and
rear and a brush guard provide trail protection. Some models come with an
ergonomic design and a gel saddle for comfort. When you ride a bike to a
favorite garden or other way, the foldable bike can be stowed in the car until
it's time to ride. The foldable bike unfolds quickly. On some models, dual
levers lock into place without any tools and the bike is ready to use in few
seconds.
Shopping
Rather than vying for a parking space in a vehicle, the foldable bike is easy
to use for door-to-door service at the mall. Shoppers can lock it up at a bike
rack or fold it up and carry it inside. Most styles with an aluminum frame
range from 30 to 35 pounds.
When you choose a foldable bike, you should select one that
is light in weight and folds to a compact size without any tools. A luggage
rack with bungee cords and a nylon bike storage and carry bag are accessories
that offer convenience and portability for work, school, shopping or
recreation.
