This is the best commuter bike ever—folds and unfolds in 3 seconds! Now there is no excuse not to take a bike with you and ride. Features front disc brakes, 3-speed, supports riders up to 240 lbs, and is made from lightweight 6061 aluminum frame! The Mobiky Genius folding bike is perfect for commuter travel—on and off subways, buses and all over congested city streets. Unlike other folding bikes with multiple steps, the Genius folds inward like an accordion, in one quick and simple step. Best of all, it unfolds and is ready to ride in under 3 seconds too! What makes the Genius unique is that, once folded, it easily rolls along side you as you navigate crowded sidewalks or subway platforms. Never carry your folding bike long distances again! If you do need to pick it up, a convenient padded carry handle sits right in reach. An ingenious dual-chain system allows the durable, 12-inch weather resistant tires to cover two tire rotations with one pedal stroke yet — essentially covering the same ground as a bike with 24-inch tires.
