Our New Bike, Built With Your Feedback!
We knew that when we were designing this bike, it was you who would have the final say. We asked what you wanted from our latest creation, you answered, and we delivered:
- A lightweight folder- as low as 15 lbs.
- A belt-drive for clean riding and packing
- Gearing options, up to 11 speeds
- Optional racks & fenders
- The frame locks together when folded
- Black, Glacier, White, and Red are our standard colors.
We can't thank you enough for all of the valuable insight that you gave us while we designed this bike. The Pakit is truly a collaboration between you, our most valued customers, and the engineering team at Bike Friday.
In a few weeks we'll be announcing the Pakit to the world with the launch of a new Kickstarter Campaign! We'll be sure to keep you posted on the details of the campaign as they emerge!
And a special thank you to all of the customers who pre-ordered their Pakit- you'll get yours delivered before any of the Kickstarter bikes!
