The New, Faster STRiDA
by Larry Lagarde

Strida SX folding bikeStrida SX folding bikeFollowing is the latest on the new 18" Strida SX folding bike. Essentially, this bike has the features of the cream colored Strida 5.0 (leather saddle and hand grips) but with larger wheels, higher pressure tires and a higher gear ratio for better speed and performance.

Like all other STRiDA models, the SX utilizes a clean and quiet Kevlar belt instead of the traditional greasy and noisy metal chain. With an upright riding position and solid center of gravity, the STRiDA offers an ergonomic ride.

Strida SX folding bikeWith demand high for all things Strida and only 100 Strida SX folding bikes being allocated for the US market for the season, the SX will sell out quickly. If you want one, I'll have an order page for the SX up by later this week. If you prefer not to wait, feel free to place your order now by phone.
