Munich. Spring is just around the corner and with it
the start of the cycling season; the first warm rays of sun beckon you
to explore the great outdoors by pedal power. The new version of the
MINI Folding Bike presented by the brand in time for the new season is
a true all-rounder that is sure to appeal to design fans and MINI
enthusiasts alike. The collapsible two-wheeler can be quickly loaded
into any car boot with ease, and provides a flexible, comfortable and
contemporary means of getting around. Whether it’s a short ride
through town or an excursion through the countryside, riding pleasure
is guaranteed.
Functionality and design.
The new MINI Folding Bike offers supreme functionality combined with
a contemporary design. It features an ingenious mechanism that allows
the high-quality, lightweight aluminium frame to be collapsed and
unfolded again in a matter of seconds. This means the bike can be
downsized into its space-saving form quickly and easily, and stowed
inside the practical transport bag. The matt dark-grey frame with
silver-coloured accents and MINI Wing Logo on the crossbar creates a
very classy, modern look. The saddle and handlebar grips in
cognac-coloured leather put the finishing touches to the design and
ensure the new MINI Folding Bike a visual treat.
Technical details and availability.
A padded leather saddle, eight gears and 20-inch wheels make the bike
extremely comfortable to ride, yet it weighs less than eleven
kilograms. The TeflonÒ-coated chain protects against rusting and
stubborn dirt, so it’s ready for action come rain or shine. There are
also mudguards at the front and rear for additional protection from
dirt and water splashes in wet and muddy conditions.
The MINI Folding Bike is available now at www.shop.mini.com and from
selected MINI dealers. It is priced at €650.00 (RRP) and comes fully
assembled and ready to ride. Matching accessories, such as the MINI
Bike Light, can also be found online and at selected MINI dealers.
