	One of the first things you notice when you try a Birdy for the first time is that it doesn’t feel like a folding bike should. The frame is absolutely solid with no flexing or creaking, the riding position is very similar to a mountain bike, and the steering does not suffer from the “small wheel syndrome”. It is also very light.


	Riese & Muller have cleverly designed an aluminium frame with no hinges to weaken it. Instead of a folding frame, the front and back wheels fold in - and the same pivots which let them fold also provide very good front and rear suspension. The suspension also makes the Birdy very fast - you can run the tyres at 100psi+ yet still be comfortable, and the suspension doesn’t dive under braking.

Yet amazingly, the Birdy still folds very well - with a bit of practice you can fold or unfold it in 15-20 seconds.

	We also stock loads of spares - tyres & tubes, wheels and rims...
