We'll show you how to "quick-fold" a Bike Friday
Folding a monotube-style Bike Friday is easily learned and can take less than thirty seconds. Photos by Kurt Jensen; the customer is Dawnielle Anderson. The Bike Friday is the Metro.


The rear triangle will swing loose. You may need to shake the bike a little to encourage the rear of the bike to drop.


The fork needs to point towards the back of the bike for the rear wheel to line up next to the front.



The stem should fit snuggly between the wheels. Slide in until the handlebars rest on the rear wheel.

The saddle will nestle against the main tube. If you have your seatpost extended further, the saddle will stop against the headset. You may want to retract the seatpost into the seat mast to avoid getting grease on your saddle

Place the wheels and the latch on the rear triangle on the bottom of the open bag. Pull the bag over the seat mast and zip the front flap up.

The TravelBag has both a shoulder strap and hand grips.
