About Folding Bikes

Wiggle lists a large range of folding bikes to suit most budgets, folding bikes, or folders as they are often called, pack down into a convenient size and are ideal for commuters who do not have room for a normal bike. They can be converted in a matter of seconds and without any tools. They can often be carried on the train, kept under your desk at work, packed into the bottom of a wardrobe, left in the boot of your car or even stowed away on your yacht, they truly are a space-saving, versatile machine. Wiggle's range of modern folding bikes are well geared and ride extremely well and are nothing like the folder of old.

About the Dahon brand

For over 20 years, Dahon have dedicated themselves to building the world's finest folding bicycles. Their award-winning folding bikes combine legendary convenience with an unsurpassed ride. Their patented technologies have revolutionised folding bike design. You'll find their innovations on just about every folding bike on the planet. Small wonder then, that they've been the world's largest manufacturer of folding bicycles since the first bicycle rolled off their production line in 1982. Urban crowding and our dependence on non-renewable sources of energy are problems everybody must face - sooner or later. Folding bikes are part of the solution and Dahon are determined to make a difference. Dahon was founded with the singular purpose of convincing more people to use environmentally-sustainable forms of transport. To accomplish this goal, they've focused on creating innovative but reasonably-priced folding bicycles. Back in 1982, they started a revolution with their first pioneering folding bicycle. That revolution is now changing the way people around the world move themselves from point A to point B. With almost 2 million folding bicycles sold, they are the proud worldwide leader in folding bicycles. They are headquartered in Los Angeles, California and their bicycles are assembled in their factories in Taiwan, Macau, and China with parts sourced from the leading component manufacturers from around the world. Their bicycles are sold in over 30 countries. They are proud to say that a majority of their 700+ worldwide employees travel to work by bicycle, public transport, or a combination of both.
