And easy to fold too!\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe want to make your transitions quick, smooth and easy with a simple folding and unfolding system.\n\nUNFOLDING:\nIncredible, in just 1 motion and 1 SECOND!\nThere's no need to touch the hinges at this stage thanks to the patented automatic locking system that's exclusive to Decathlon.\n\nFOLDING:\nThe easy-to-locate levers make the hinges simple to operate.\nThe chunky levers have rounded edges so that they're comfortable to grasp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFrame\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e6061 T6 aluminium frame that's lightweight, dynamic and sturdy.\n\nThe single-arm frame design makes the bike narrow when folded.\nIn fact, it's only 35 cm wide. That's 20% more compact than our 20\" folding bikes.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFork\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eSingle-arm, 6061-T6 aluminium frame for less weight and more strength.\n\nThe single-arm fork design makes the bike incredibly narrow when folded.\nIn fact, it's only 35 cm wide. That's 20% more compact than our 20\" folding bikes.\n\nWe've also used topology optimisation to develop a more \"open\" frame.\nThis technology ensures that we use just the right amount of material while retaining the necessary rigidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFastening system\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Fold Light 1\" is held in its folded position by a brand-new system.\n\nMagnets located on the front and rear hubs hold the bike's wheels parallel.\n\nOnce folded, the stem is held against the frame by a clip system.\n\nThis clever system allows you to push your bike when it's folded, and to carry it without a second thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eThe bike rolls when folded\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eYES, the Fold Light 1\" rolls along nicely when folded!\n\nYou only need to carry it when absolutely necessary. In other words, when you come across a staircase or need to put it in a train luggage rack or car boot.\n\nThe rest of the time, you can easily move it by simply pushing it along, even when folded.\nLeave the seatpost in its raised position and use one hand to steer it anywhere, even in busy pedestrian zones (e.g. stations and shops).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eBrakes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bike has V-brakes with aluminium levers and calipers for powerful, progressive braking.\nRecommendation: your brakes will gradually wear out over time. How quickly they wear out will depend on how much you ride and how you ride.\nIf your brakes become too soft, and your levers end up touching the grips when you squeeze them, we recommend adjusting your brakes yourself or getting a workshop to do this for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWheels\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e16 inches.\nSingle-walled, machined rims. Reinforced single-sided hubs with sealed ball bearings (the same technology that we use on our road bikes).The 16\" wheel size is perfect for a great bike that's very compact.These smaller wheels make a bike easier to handle and agile than with big wheels.After your first rides, you're sure to be convinced.Don't be surprised!Try it, you'll love it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTyres and inner tubes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTyres- Schwalbe Marathon Racer.\nSize 16 x 1.50. - Light and precise, with good puncture protection to suit intensive users.\n- Reflective bands on the sidewalls to make you more visible from the sides at night.\nInner tube: - Schwalbe for better wear.\n\n- Large Schrader valve.\nTips:\nWe recommend inflating your tyres to 6 bar to reduce the risk of punctures and to make your pedalling more efficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDrivetrain\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou'll be amazed by the Fold Light 1\"!\n\nIts Shimano Sora 9-speed drive train (the same one we use on road bikes) makes it incredibly efficient, especially for an ultra-compact bike.\n\nThe trigger system makes gear changes precise and reliable.\nThis bike is great on both flats and downhills.
