Tern Link P9

The Brand new folding bike called Tern Link P9, manufactured by Tern Bicycles sure kicks the folding bike standards up a notch. The Tern Link P9 features a super-solid frame with easy to yuse hinges that make the bike feel like a well made custom frame rather than a folding bike.

The Tern Link P9 sure looks like it will be one of our favorite commuter bikes because of its sturdy design and performance. Enjoy the Tern Link P9 video review below:

Brompton folding bicycle travel - Best Holiday Getaway

How many of you are going abroad for the holidays – or at least visiting other parts of the country? Going some place warm I hope? Well even if you’re going up north to the frigid land of Canada you would be best off taking a little portable transportation with you! After all, who wants to walk 20 minutes from the hotel to that perfect little restaurant you read about when you could bike there in 5? That’s just what some people are doing this holiday season with their folding bicycles for travel!

Burley Travoy Bike Trailer - Stacking the boxes high

With a Burley Travoy bicycle trailer you can really pack on the boxes. It's a super easy way to get from place to place when hauling cargo and nothing beats a Travoy for convenient city hauling. I love to snap one onto by Brompton folding bicycle when taking boxes back from the shop. Also, it's a fun way to keep human powered even when you've got big and awkward loads to carry.

This trip I took a bunch of future Christmas presents home with my Burley Travoy - the fun part being that it was piled 6 feet high with boxes of all shape and size. Lucky for me - and the boxes - this bicycle trailer is built to take a beating and keep going. The Travoy trailer really held up well despite the adverse conditions.

The KickPed kick scooter seems to appeal to everyone

We were a bit surprised at the quick pickup in sales of KickPed kick scooters almost right out of the gate. It took a few months to catch on but now our sales of these kick scooters have outstripped every other in the shop. It seems there is something about the KickPed that really get's people excitied, but what?

We think the minimal design and reliable construction have a lot to do with it but one thing we know for sure is that 90% of people who come into the shop to ride other kick scooters and then the KickPed find the comfort of the KickPed kick scooter so superior that they take it right on the spot. That's the beauty of the KickPed kick scooter's superior design.
