A folding bicycle is a bicycle designed to fold into a compact form, facilitating transport and storage. When folded, the bikes can be more easily carried into buildings and workplaces or onto public transportation (facilitating mixed-mode commuting) — or more easily stored in compact living quarters or aboard a car, boat or plane. Folding mechanisms vary, with each offering a combination of folding speed, folding ease, compactness, ride, weight, durability and price.
Distinguished by the complexities of their folding mechanism, more demanding structural requirements, greater number of parts, and more specialized market appeal, folding bikes may be more expensive than comparable non-folding models.
Sometimes categorized as folding bicycles, another group of bikes (also called break-away models) separates into pieces rather than fold.
