I get excited about our Montague sales. I'm not even a bike rider--don't have the time unfortunately. But I AM a prepper and I have bought three Montagues over the years ... I just got my hands on our new Paratrooper Pro ... will make a great gift for my middle son who is going to school and who just got his pilots license. Anyway, here's the deal ... a really GOOD deal ... It's a bit hush-hush ... the coupon codes are in our coupon bunker: http://www.safecastlebunker.com/ Here are our Montague listings: http://www.safecastle.com/montague-folding-bikes.aspx And here is my son's new bike ...
Here's the classic Paratrooper, updated with the new CLIX system, allowing it to be folded within 20 seconds.
The Strongest Folding Frame Montague took the strongest folding bikes on the market and re-designed them from the ground up to provide an even better ride, an easier folding experience, and a stunning new look. The new DirectConnect™ folding system removes the needs for a quick release on the top tube, connects the front and rear frames with a larger latch, and automatically clicks into place when the bike is unfolded.
Full-size folding bikes. Montague is the world’s leading maker of full-size folding bikes. We focus on performance and ride quality first, creating some of the most versatile bikes on the planet.
Rackstand: six functions in one ... RackStand™ is a new concept in bicycle rack systems. It is a luggage carrier, mudguard, kickstand, and work stand all in one. It even makes folding and storing your folded bike easier. A quick release allows it to rotate under the rear wheel on a specially designed axle mount. When in the lowered position it acts as a kickstand or workstand, stabilizes your bike to make folding easier, and allows the folded bike to be stored or displayed upright.
For serious street riding, have a look at the FIT ... Road Bike Performance With the speed of a road bike, the versatility of a hybrid, and Montague’s legendary folding bike frame, the FIT was created in order to provide the highest performance road ride of any foldable bike available.
Design Philosophy In addition to our innovative technology, our folding bikes were designed with the philosophy that performance comes first – the folding aspect is secondary. Many people in the bike industry agree that bicycles of the future will fold, but that is where the agreement ends. We design full-size, high-performance bicycles that fold, not simply folding bikes. Other folding bike manufacturers compromise on the ride quality of the bike when they use small “circus-style” wheels. Montague is different; our folding bikes use standard, full-size wheels that millions of bikes use all around the globe. These wheel sizes have been chosen by a countless number of riders and all major bike companies because they offer by far the best stability, rolling resistance, and obstacle clearance. Again, our top priority is delivering a high-performance bike. However, what separates us from other high-caliber bike manufactures is our bike’s ability to fold. Between the frames, wheels, and other materials, Montague is able to produce industry-leading folding bikes. A WORD ON SMALL WHEEL “CIRCUS STYLE” FOLDING BIKES: Small wheels offer, well, small performance. When compared to standard bicycle wheels, the small wheels found on most folding bikes sink into smaller potholes, offer less stability, create more rolling resistance, force you to use an increased gearing ratio to go the same speed, and when you get a flat tire, tubes are not readily available at any bike shop.
Standard Features CLIX Wheel Release System All Montague bikes come equipped with the new CLIX Wheel Release System. The CLIX System was designed to make removing and installing your front wheel easier and faster than ever. For more information on the CLIX Wheel Release System check out www.clixqr.com. Octagon Adjustable Stem The Octagon offers all the benefits of an angle adjustable stem without shortening “reach” when raised. This unique design allows for handlebar height to be changed while preserving the way the bike handles and rides. Also, with the octagonal shape of the post, steering remains engaged while raising or lowering the stem. For more information on the OCTAGON check out www.octagoncycles.com. Vibration Reduction Curve The Vibration Reduction Curve (VRC), found on the Montague pavement line is designed to dampen road vibrations, making the ride smoother and more comfortable. By curving our double top tube frame, we were able to disperse road vibrations in a way that reduces unwanted feedback in the handlebars and saddle area. Folding Integrated Technology Each bike frame is built around our patented FIT system. This design eliminates the need to break the frame in order to fold the bike. Not only does this make folding easier, but it makes our bikes the strongest folding bikes on the market. Unlike other folding bicycles, you will not sacrifice performance for folding. Power Angle Found on all Montague frames. The power angle is designed to help boost energy transfer to the rear wheel by greatly increasing the torsional rigidity of the bottom bracket. The result is a folding bike frame whose stiffness is unrivaled.
My son (USAF Reserves and student pilot) received his early Christmas present this weekend--the Paratrooper Pro. He stowed it in his trunk and drove back to school with it. He loves it.
Montague folding bikes are prepper favorites. Why? They are real bikes ... strong, capable, quality bikes that fold and unfold quickly. They are easy to stow in a car trunk, in a closet, under a desk, etc. ... ready to ride out of a jam at any time.
