An excellent quality short distance bike that folds
Light. Attractive. Fast folding. Street worthy. Clean. Low maintenance. Time tested. Portable. Reasonably priced. If you crave these features in a bicycle, the Strida 5.0 is for you.

Light
Weighing in at 19.4 lbs, the Strida 5.0 is a very lite folding bike. Only 3 other production bikes that fold weigh less (see Lightweight Folding Bikes - Top 5) and the Strida is the most practical of the lot.

Attractive
The Strida 5.0's chic, attention grabbing good looks demand notice. It's distinctive, minimalistic, 'A' shaped, collapsible-frame design and beautiful finish make you a trend setter simply by association. Talk about making friends and influencing people... not only is the Strida a date magnet; just owning one may gain you a pay raise ;-)

Fast Folding
In a hurry? One, split second step folds the Strida 5.0's frame. Ride right up to the door, dismount, fold the bike and either roll or carry it inside. Magnets and a smart design keep things together (for a smaller footprint or storage, folding the pedals and handlebar ends take just a couple of seconds more).

Street Worthy
The Strida 5.0's 16" alloy wheels take potholes, curbs & cracks better than the smaller wheels of other folding bikes, providing a ride that is less harsh. Nimble, the Strida's low weight provides faster acceleration and effortless manueverability. Disc brakes stop you on a dime in all weather conditions.

Clean
The Strida 5.0's kevlar drive belt, painted aluminum frame, plastic/rubber fenders and disc brakes prevent your body or clothes from getting dirty.

Low Maintenance
The kevlar drive belt, single speed hub and disc brakes will last virtually forever. With disc brakes, the sidewalls of the wheels do not wear down (16" wheels are also stronger than compartive, full size wheels).

Time Tested
The 5.0 is the latest and best example of the Strida, a folding bike that has been sold since 1987. The improvements embodied in the 5.0 make this the lightest, best performing and most durable Strida ever.

Extreme Portable
Folded or unfolded, brake straps prevent the Strida 5.0 from rolling; lean it against the wall of an elevator, subway car, etc. worry free. When folded, the Strida rolls like a wheeled walking stick, easily navigating through crowds. The Strida 5.0's combination of light weight and bundled-stick folding design make it simple to carry free of the straps or bungees other folders need to stay folded. When you set it down, the Strida rests on the wheels and plastic carry rack, preventing the frame from getting scratched.

Reasonably Priced
Considering that the Strida 5.0 is made to last, theft resistant, fun to ride and easy to store, $799 is a small price to pay for a bike this good.
