ABSTRACT:
A foldable bicycle has separate front and rear frames coupled to each other at a seat post formed by concentric frame members. A locking mechanism positions the frame members in either a rigid open or folded position. The pedal housing is located on the rear frame member either as an extension of the seat tube or positioned between the seat tube and the chain stays. The bicycle uses standard components to form the drive, brake and steering assemblies. In the folded state, the bicycle may be backpacked using available straps and webs that are attached to the front frame.
