Airframe bicycle

Another twist on the folding bicycle. Structural hinges allowing the bike to collapse down to a small package for commuting, or for stowing in an apartment or car boot (trunk). Made from aluminium alloy it claims to be the “lightest folding production bike.” At 10.5 kg (23 lbs) the claim might be true. It folds in about 10-15 seconds, into its own carry bag, which does double service as the pannier bag. And like iXi bike the Airframe has folding pedals, which with the folding handlebars make it a snap to store in narrow spaces, like trains and offices. Hoon along with the four speed Shimano Nexus hub. Some reviewers suggest that the Airframe has a level of ‘flexibility’ in the frame structure that takes a bit of getting used to. UK designed and made. ::Airframe [by WM]
