Folding bikes have been around for ages now, with the likes of UK folding bike brand Brompton starting out way back in 1981. While Bromptons have 16-inch wheels, the new Tuck Bike - that has just been launched on Kickstarter(link is external) - has full-sized wheels but still manages to fit into small spaces, as those wheels can be folded into thirds.

“[It’s] a full size bike that fits under your desk and is fun to ride whether you fold it or not,” say the Tuck Bike LLC team.
No tools are needed to fold the bike away, and there are three different folding options to choose from depending on whether saving time or saving space is more important.

The 'Curtsy' is the quickest option and best for temporarily storing the bike in a narrow hallway, for example - just fold down the handlebars.

The 'Quickie' is the half fold, and this can be done in five seconds flat according to Tuck Bike. It reckons this is best suited to those rushing to catch a busy train.

Finally there is the 'Full Monty Fold' which, according to Tuck Bike, can be achieved in less than two minutes. This is the method that folds the wheels away into thirds, and then these are tucked inside the frame.

Tiny castor wheels are also attached to make it easy to transport the bike around when it’s folded away; the Tuck Bike can be rolled along as you walk about at your destination. Magnets should also hold the folded frame together.

How compact?
user posted image
The most compact fold measures 26 x 16 x 34 inches (65 x 40 x 86cm), which is small enough to fit into the boot of a compact car, such as the Chevy Bolt hatchback pictured above, and also under the desk at the office.

Tuck Bike acknowledges that you can get a small-wheeled folding bike that’ll fold up smaller, but with its offering you still get a compact bike that rides like a full-size urban bike.

3:44 and 4:22

But in this video his Verge D9 doesn't use the Schwalbe One tyres like in the other video.

Tern also sell the CarryOn cover but I don't know if this is sold here or not.

i wouldn't recommend ppl to park at mcd parking. it's meant for mcd customer for dine-in and takeway. can park kat open space tepi mcd.

parking at masjid besi definitely better.

or else can park at anjung floria, now they have setup a pit stop which include route map and some bike tools. newbie can follow the marking on floor.

newbie don't know then they will just occupy the parking je…haha.

plenty of parking space la…putrajaya impossible unable to get a parking space…

from masjid besi, in front of dorset hotel, food truck area, millennium monument, tepi mcd, dataran putra round about, tepi pmo, etc.

some prefer parking kat seri gemilang bridge area so that they can go either way.

for sure the more u cycle at putrajaya, the more parking area u will discover. by that time u will have your own preferred exact parking lot laugh.gif

while i always park at under bridge to avoid sunlight and rain…haha.

Thanks! sounds perfect. It's just that I'm pretty far from Putrajaya. Need to drive 1 hour there only start cycling. lol!

I think this is normal as cyclists drive from everywhere to go to various cycling venues such as:
Sempah
Perez / Tekala
Frasers
Cyberjaya / Putrajaya
Saujana Putra
etc...etc... sweat.gif
