The Best Folding Bicycle - EVER!




Strida - the first completely new bicycle geometry in 95 years. Inside a triangular frame of lightweight aluminum, power is transferred to the rear wheels via a silent clean Kevlar belt. Handlebars are mounted horizontally, so the rider can sit comfortably upright with an excellent view of the road. The genius of the triangular frame is that it can fold. In five seconds, you have a light, compact form that you can easily wheel before you, stow in a closet, load in your car or take on the train. With no external grease or oil to soil your clothes, Strida makes daily commuting fun and practical. Now, instead of being snarled up in traffic, you can ride wherever you want, then fold up your transport and take it with you. Designed in England. Now at Zinc Details.

Riding the Strida is Channel 5's Liam Mayclem, who had just finished interviewing Zinc Details' Vasilios Kiniris for an "Eye on the Bay" segment. Deal was, he had to ride the bike. Problem was, we couldn't get him off!
