Evening all.

Does anyone have any experience of folding ‘mountain’ bike? I mate (who lives on a house boat, so space is at a premium) asked me if I knew anything about them. I didn’t, but thought that the Hive Mind would.

Apparently he’s looked at a Montague X50 (amongst others).

He won’t be doing owt daft, I suspect nothing more gnarcore than towpaths, and straightforward bridleways, so possibly even a hybrid would do (basially a 26er, rather than a Brompton stylee folder).

Your (collective) help, as ever, is appreciated.

Cheers.

Would S&S couplings be an option for him?

One of these must be worth a punt… that way he can spec it nice too:
