The Ultimate 16" wheel super compact folder
This 16 inch mini folding bike is our smallest and lightest folding bike making it perfect for travel. It's super compact size allows it to fit in the trunk of a vehicle or into a standard sized suitcase. It comes with a Shimano Alfine 11sp Shimano internal hub and a Gates CDX belt drive system. This is the best drivetrain on any folding bike. The gear range on the 11sp has a whopping 408% gear range which is perfect for the hills and flats. The mini 11 also adds light action trigger shifters, 2.2" wide tires for comfort, and crank with integrated bottom bracket which is highly efficient and external bearings make it super stiff.
It is super lightweight because everything on the bike is aluminum and the Belt employs a lightweight Gates Carbon belt and cogs. You will really fall in love with the idea of having frames made from lightweight aluminum, and bag interface on the headtube ( we have custom head tube bags ). We are now including free rack, kickstand, and rear fender. The rack is perfect to carry loads, and the rear fender will keep you clean even when the terrain gets dirty. A font fender is not necessary since the frame will act as a front fender.
The Tekro V brakes in combination with the machined-sidewall rims are quality and make the bike stop super fast.
Rear derailleurs are known to be the weakest link on a bicycle, removing it makes the entire system stronger and more vibrant. Additionally, by using a belt system it is grease-free, hence there can never be a black streak on your leg, and you need not worry about messing up any place you leave your bike. Shifting will be butter smooth as is standard with Shimano's high end internal hub systems. Overall, this mini bike is really small, light and the drive train is nearly maintenance-free. This is the ideal bike for a boaters, RV'rs, rail and for airport travel.
