  • Fast weekend rides
  • Weekday commutes, flying past cars stuck in traffic
  • Fitness training

The new LockJaw family of mini bikes is a completely new take on urban bike design and the Silvertip promises to be the most popular in the class. It’s a rare combination of speed, performance, styling, and value that becomes obvious after the very first test ride. The Silvertip is a flat bar road bike that is at home in the city for daily commutes as it is on long, fast weekend rides. The Shimano Tiagra drive train and premium components from SRAM, Schwalbe, FSA and Kinetix keep the bike light and fast. Bottom line: it’s a blast to ride.

  • Patented LockJaw folding technology lets the Silvertip fold up to go anywhere
  • Dahon Axis stem adjusts for height and reach so every rider can find the perfect riding position
  • Schwalbe Kojak tires are fast and feature a layer of Kevlar puncture protection
  • BioLogic PostPump – a high capacity pump integrated into the seatpost means you’ll never be caught without a pump again
