Folding Bike DI BLASI Mod. R24

It folds in 5 seconds It unfolds in 5 seconds !

Is the most recent of the DI BLASI folding bicycles. It is the smallest when folded and is one of the lightest on the market. It is the perfect bicycle to be carried on the train, in the car, etc. Its wheels mount 16” tyres.

The mod. R24 bicycle is characterized by the ease and quickness of folding, as well as by innovative solutions (patented), such as the automatic folding of the front fork, the automatic folding of the handlebars, and the rapid folding the saddle, which gives a folded volume of only 83,5 litres (the smallest volume among folding bicycles). When opened it has a wheelbase of 92.5 cm which ensures excellent driver stability.

To give the bicycle the maximum rigidity with minimum weight, some components of the frame are made of high resistance steel while others components are made of light alloys, depending on the type of stress on the structure of the frame.

In this way we were able to reduce the weight of the bicycle to only 12,3 Kg, which includes all the standard marine equipment: foldable pedals, gear changer with 7 speed derailleur, V brakes, dynamo-powered front and tail lights for boats, kickstand, transport handle, marine bell, and mudguards.

Upon request, it can be equipped with a SRAM 3-speed hub shifter and pedal activated rear brakes. The frame components of the standard version (R24P) are painted with polyester powder coatings.

For use in a seaside environment, we propose the version (R24S) in which the frame components are made of AISI 304 stainless steel, instead of carbon steel as in the standard version.

Accessories available at extra costs: the carrying boat bag, the rear luggage rack and the shopping bag.
