Not All Folding Bikes Are Created Equal - Bike Friday's Pocket Companion | Warm Planet Bikes

The Bike Friday Pocket Companion Gets It Done For Less

The Pocket Companion offers you all the basic elements of a Bike Friday at their most affordable price point.

The Pocket Companion is designed with a chrome-moly steel frame to give riders a comfortable, relaxed position without sacrificing handling.

As with all Bike Friday folding bikes, fit is key to ride performance. The Pocket Companion comes in three sizes (52 cm, 56 cm, 60 cm) to fit individuals from about 4-foot-6 to 6-foot-4 (1.3m to 1.9m).

The bike's telescoping EasyPack seat mast to travel by car, plane or boat. When folded, it is compact and easy to store; making it easy to get on to the train, the trunk of your car or a cab, even on the bus!

The Pocket Companion has parts group for a 24-speed. W/sealed hubs, aluminum rims, touring hybrid tires, in your choice of our standard colors (Flag Red, Cream Soda Blue, Ink Black and Green Gear Green) to match your frame. 

As far as ride quality- Bike Friday bikes practically ride the same as your average road bike. It may not be as fast uphill or when coasting but it is light, comfortable, and just plain fun to ride.
