Bike Friday Pocket Rocket

[kmehrzad]

Hunter Green Bike Friday Pocket Rocket in very good condition. Bike was built for someone 5'10" to 6' tall.

Was built with touring in mind and has nice components (spec sheet available upon request). Also has an internal Sachs Neos 3x7 hub. Here's a link discussing the benefits of a Sachs 3x7 hub: http://www.phred.org/~alex/bikes/3x7.html

Tires are in very good condition, 20 x 1 1/8, Primo Comet, Kevlar belted. Pedals are not included.

A single turn of the pedals on a Bike Friday will cover the same ground as that of a regular wheeled bike - the small wheel just turns a little more. The gears on a Bike Friday are configured to match the ratios of a regular bike.

Small wheels climb better due to a smaller diameter that needs to be rotated. Small wheels accelerate faster for the same reason.

Small wheels, having a lower surface area, have lower wind resistance in headwinds.

Originally sold for $2,180.00, asking $950.00.
