Product Description
Melon Bicycles 5005239 Slice 20" Folding Bicycle, Red is made from lightweight 7005 aluminum and is easy to put in and out of the trunk, carry into the office or classroom, or store in the apartment closet. The seat is comfortable but firm, allowing you to stay in the saddle as long as you like. The rear mounted kickstand is out of the way but convenient for those moments when you actually have to stop riding. High quality rims and high-powered V-brakes round out the package. The slice is designed with an extra large front chainring that provides the gear ratios necessary to conquer any terrain with only 8 gears. Melon believes that for most people, 24 or 27 gears are completely unnecessary and just get in the way of your enjoyable riding experience. The SRAM MRX Pro grip shifter makes shifting completely intuitive and fun; you click the grip away from you to go to the next higher gear and towards you to go to the next lower gear. The large numerical display by the hand grip lets you see what gear you are in at a glance. Melon designed the slice as the 20" wheel, easily transported alternative to conventional comfort, hybrid, fitness, and commuting bikes. An upright riding position makes for an enjoyable day in the saddle. Did we mention that you will never need to wrestle with a bike rack again? - but that is just the start, wait until you ride it. You'll soon think of the slice as a bike that folds, not a folding bike. If you are ready for some serious fun, the slice folding bike is the one for you.
