Meant to thrive in the congested (and sometimes neglected) urban environment where traditional city bikes falter, the Jens Martin Skibsted-designed Boston utilizes oversized tubing and burly tires to handle whatever comes your way. The most media-recognized bike ever made, the Boston includes an integrated lock that’s a structural part of the frame (if a thief cuts the wire, the bike’s unrideable…but repairable), and quickly folds to fit wherever you need to go: on the bus, in your office, or in your apartment. This Instant Icon—part of the permanent display at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art—is street friendly and street wise, no matter where the streets take you.
U-Geometric
Designed for everyday riding, the bicycle combines commuter with functionality with the ease of use of a BMX. Small and perfectly formed.
Single-speed
With no gear shifting, this is pedalling at its best. A single speed, the bike requires little maintenance and keeps transmission loss at a minimum.
DT-wire lock
The unique locking system uses a Down Tube (DT) chain lock, which is integrated as a structural part of the frame. If the lock is broken so is the bike - why steal it then?
Semi-fold
The quick & easy semi-folding mechanism & folding pedals makes public transport, cars & elevators more accessible. Built for town convenience, the bike goes where you go.
Twin-disc brakes
Stop before you are stopped. Twin-disc brakes provide ultimate braking power for stop and go city traffic.
Heavy-duty
The predominant Downhill and BMX features, slick fat tires and overkill size tubes provide the toughness and durability required for the daily urban grind.
