Choosing Your Folding Bike

The first step in choosing your folding bicycle is to decide what type of riding you'll be doing. Off road, trips along the towpath, or simply just a quick ride to the shops to pick up supplies, we have a bike for every occasion. At foldingbiikehut we offer bikes with four different wheel diameters: 16", 20", 24", 26". Wheel size affects the rideability and portability of your bike. 

16” Wheel
16" wheel folding bikes are designed to be ultra compact when folded. That makes them ideal for Boats, Motor Homes and Caravans where space is at a premium. However a trade off is that to achieve a very compact folded size, a 16" bike won't be quite as comfortable to ride for longer distances or for taller riders. Choose a 16" model if compact folded size is your main concern.

20” Wheel
We feel that a 20" model delivers the optimal balance of performance and folding convenience. Our 20" wheel folding bikes are slightly larger when folded than the 16" models but they deliver a more comfortable and efficient ride. With the right components, our 20" wheel bikes are good for longer distances. Choose a 20" model if you want performance and portability.

24” & 26” Wheel
24" & 26" wheel folding bikes are essentially "standard" bikes that offer portable convenience and quality. Our 24" & 26" wheel bikes feature standard frame geometries for an excellent ride. Virtually all of the components, except for the frame, are off-the-shelf components that can be repaired or replaced in any bike shop. Choose a 24" or 26" bike if you want the performance and looks of a "regular" bike but still want folding convenience.
