A Bike That Fits Your Life

Montague Bikes makes cycling easier with performance bikes that fold in seconds for simple storage and transport.

JUNE 2026 – CAMBRIDGE MA   

For many, the biggest obstacle to cycling is not motivation. It’s logistics. Where do you store a bike in an apartment? How do you bring it to the trail without a car rack? Can one bike work for commuting, fitness rides, and weekend adventures?

Montague Bikes was built to answer those questions. As the leader in full-size folding bikes, Montague has a unique line of pavement, mountain, and electric bikes that deliver the performance and ride quality of a traditional bike with the convenience of folding. Each model is designed to fit real life, removing the everyday barriers that keep riders from getting out more often: limited storage, difficult transport, crowded living spaces, and the hassle of hauling a bike on a vehicle.

Unlike most folding bikes with small wheels and tiny frames, which are more akin to a toy than a proper bike, Montagues are full-size bicycles engineered for confident, comfortable riding. They fold quickly to fit in a closet, apartment, office, or car trunk, making it easy to ride before work, commute across town, meet friends for a weekend ride, or access parks and trails without needing a bulky car rack. The result is a bike that fits your lifestyle instead of requiring extra space, extra equipment, or extra planning.

For fitness-focused riders, the Montague FIT offers a fast, responsive road ride with a carbon fork, disc brakes, lightweight frame, and 28mm road tires. It’s built for high-speed pavement, hill climbs, and endurance rides, then folds down compactly when the ride is over.

For riders looking to get off-road, the Paratrooper line brings Montague’s folding design to capable mountain bikes. For those just starting out, the Paratrooper Express and classic Paratrooper models offer high-quality yet affordable options to tackle basic trails. For more rugged terrain the Paratrooper Highline and Elite offer upgraded components, longer suspension, and larger 27.5” wheels. With a Montague’s unique folding capability, trail access doesn’t need to be a stressor; just throw your folded bike in the backseat and go.

For city riders and commuters, Montague’s pavement models make everyday transportation more practical. The commuter lifestyle can often be unglamorous, between crowded train cars, long waits on the platform, and bus delays. With a Montague pavement bike, designed with city riding in mind, you can cruise door-to-door to your destination and skip all the hassle. The Allston, with its greaseless carbon belt drive and internal gear hub, offers a clean, quiet, low-maintenance ride that is especially useful for riders heading to work or social events who can avoid the risk of a grease stain or a trip to the dry cleaners. 

“Cycling allows you to get outside and enjoy life, to feel unburdened by complications,” said Liza Lane at Montague Bikes. “Our bikes make that easier because they are designed for those who want the performance of a real bicycle without the storage and transport headaches that often come with owning one.”

Folding to approximately 36” x 26” x 18”, Montague bikes are designed for anyone who wants to ride more without rearranging their homes, vehicles, or routines around a bike. From commuting and fitness to trails and weekend travel, Montague makes it easy to say yes to cycling.
