The clean and prominent design of MODE, a foldable bicycle, has aimed to those travelers who never consider cycles as an option or transportation for various hectic reasons. This superb bicycle avoids complex tubes with unseen dirt traps, oily chains and the other messes of traditional bikes that deprive users from riding a bicycle. MODE from Pacific Cycles features integrated folding (IF) technology that features an automatic, single action fold without the help of any other tools. The IF technology is mainly based on a 4-Bar, 3-dimensional linkage that guides the wheels together automatically when you are trying to fold the bike. Once folded, MODE takes a shape of a convenient wheeled package that you can easily push around.
Designer : Ryan Carroll, Mark Sanders, and Michael Lin
