Mercedes Benz Folding Bike

Mercedes-Benz Accessories GmbH has developed a folding high-tech bike in partnership with ADP Engineering GmbH, a company renowned for its exclusive, handcrafted Rotwild brand of cycles. In collaborating on the new bike the partners' aim was to build a cycle which would satisfy the every need of discerning Mercedes-Benz customers.


The new Folding Bike from Mercedes-Benz is perfectly attuned to today's urban mobility needs. The high-tech bike can be unfolded effortlessly in seconds, making it ideal for flexible use in the city. The unique, patented mechanism also allows the bike to be folded in stages. The ergonomically shaped quick-release fastener on the seat dome means that the bike can be folded in seconds. In just one move the front and rear wheels fold together. The advantage here: despite its compact transportation size, the cycle can still be pushed effortlessly. Folded in this way, the bike is perfect for urban " bike and ride" mobility. A further advantage: the cyclist's hands stay clean when folding the bike. The second quick-release fastener above the front wheel allows the handlebars to be pivoted downwards, further reducing the bike's folded dimensions. Fully folded, the exclusive city sprinter measures just 800 x 800 x 280 millimetres.
