A "Folding" Bicycle?
I recently bought a "Xootr Swift" folding 16 speed road bike. which i have mounted between two layers of closed cell foam behing my back against the top box, to take along on my soon 4-5 year RTW ride. Being a devoted cyclist at heart i love to have a bicycle along to ride after a day on the moto, to the store, or for a bit of exercise, and this bike is perfect. It folds tiny, has 20inch wheels, but the same geometry as a regular road bike, and its only 21 pounds. It folds into about 10 inces thick, by 32 inches wide and 24 inches high. thats by removing only the front wheel, handlebars/stem, and seat post. All in uner a minute with practise. Now all i need to do is hurry up and GO!
