SEE IT FOLDED
  • Grocery shopping the eco-friendly way.
  • Sunny weekend rides.
  • Lunch rides to that great new café.

Smooth, effortless, graceful… that’s the dictionary definition of Glide, and it’s the perfect description of our favorite lo-step folder. Instead of jumping in the car for that trip to the local café for a baguette and a latte, grab a Glide and cruise the streets in 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 how small the Glide packs down.

  • Looks and rides like a full-sized city bike but folds up fast and small.
  • UpRide frame geometry lets the rider sit up and take notice comfortably.
  • NoLift design requires no lifting to fold the bike – effortless.
  • Fully equipped for city commuting – the brake levers even have an integrated bell.
  • Dynamo hub light keeps you out of the dark, no batteries required
