The Mini Bike Is Back!

March 2015 News, Product

The Downtube Mini Shimano Nexus 8SP Folding Bike has answered the call of demand and is back on the market!

This mini folding bike is a 16-inch super compact model with an 8-speed Shimano Nexus internal hub and optional Gates Carbon belt drive. With no external shifter or gears in the internal hub, you don’t have to worry about cleaning your drive train or improper shifting, thanks to the sealed, maintenance-free environment it’s enclosed in.

This bike is extraordinarily light at only 24 pounds and never runs the risk of getting grease on your pant leg, since the miniB (belt) uses a Gates carbon belt and cogs. It takes less than 15 seconds to fold and can seat a rider up to six feet tall and 215 pounds. The seat is made of Velo Gel with a large spring comfort saddle. This small, maintenance-free, lightweight bike is ideal for docks and houseboat marinas. If you're interested in finding out more, call 215-245-4032 or check out www.downtube.com.
