SEE IT FOLDED
  • A weekend trip to the farmer’s market.
  • Sunny weekend rides.
  • Lunch rides to that great new café.
  • Grocery shopping the eco-friendly way.

Smooth, effortless, graceful… that’s the dictionary definition of Glide, and it’s the perfect description of our favorite low-step folder. Instead of jumping in the car to get that trip to the local café for a baguette and a latte, grab a Glide and cruise the streets in European style. The UpRide frame geometry puts your body in a relaxed upright position – like you are walking, just a lot faster. You’ve never ridden a smoother, more comfortable bike. And when it comes time to fold, you’ll really appreciate how fast and small the Glide packs down.

  • New Radius V clamp handlepost is stronger and stiffer.
  • Custom-drawn Sonus 7005 aluminum frame tubing with six patented technologies.
  • Patented DFS technology for a fast and easy 15 second fold.
  • Integrated frame luggage bracket permits the attachment of hundreds of * KlickFix compatible baskets and bags.
  • NoLift Technology means that you can fold the bike completely without ever having to lift it – unlike most all other folding bikes on the market.
