SwissBike's Folding Commuter Bike

The SwissBike TX is a full-size commuter bike (26” wheel) that folds to fit in the back of a Mini Cooper. The whole philosophy behind this bike is that it offers the full-size stability and ride quality that is needed for a good commuter, while still having all the benefits of a small wheel folder. In short, it can go anywhere. Terrain is not an issue.

With the concept of Drive and Cycle, if your commute is a long one or through an area that is not conducive to riding, leave a SwissBike in the trunk for part of the drive and when you hit traffic, ride the rest of the way in. The ability to commute how you want at any given moment on any given day, goes a long way in removing some of the obstacles that keep people from commuting by bike.

And hey, the bike looks really cool, too!
