Strida Folding Bike Review and Price Check

The Strida Bike is a very unique looking ride with style that pops like a piece of candy. Though it's not really made for steep hills this folding bike is great for Train and Bus Commuters, it's also fun to take to the beach or camping, as long as you have paved trails to ride. The color design and minimalist shape definitely draws attention. Though it's not the smallest folding bike it meets some very high criteria for style and comfortable riding. The price is a little steep but the Strida is the equivalent of the mini Cooper in a folding Bike. At 22 pounds it would probably be heavy to lug or carry long distances but since it wheels around sort of like a hand truck when not being ridden the weight really isn't an issue. The silent clean Kevlar belt is a brilliant design that eliminates oily chain issues when storing or transporting. The Strida is just a very Cool folding Bike!

Multiple Colors to Choose From

The first completely new bicycle geometry in 95 years. Inside a triangular frame of lightweight aluminum, this single speed bike transfers power to the rear wheel via a silent clean Kevlar belt. Handlebars are mounted horizontally so the rider can sit comfortably upright with an excellent view of the road. The genius of the triangular frame is that it can quickly fold. In five seconds, you have a light, compact form that you can easily wheel, stow in a closet, load in your car or take on the train.

    I have had mine about a week. A little hard to adjust the seat but once adjusted it ride much better than I had expeced. Took a little getting used to but at 14 mph it is a winner.
