Green Products has come across a new design based on an old manner of transport: the Montague SwissBike TX. Montague, designers of folding bikes ever since 1987, has a new product aimed at the commuter; the SwissBike TX.
The SwissBike TX can be folded and unfolded in around 30 seconds, and put in its folding bag or placed in a car trunk. The idea is to drive your car to a comfortable location, unfold the bike, and ride to work. When you arrive at work, fold the bike up, put it in its bag, and carry it to your office or cubicle.
When folded, the SwissBike footprint is only 36 inches by 24 inches by 12 inches, so it takes up very little space, and weighs in at a little over 30 pounds. The SwissBike, with its quality design and excellent accessories will last many years. When you average the cost over 10 years, you will pay around 70 dollars a year. Here in California, we have incentives** in place that will pay you for riding to work. If you add in the clean air incentives and the gas savings, you could end up paying for the bike much sooner than that.
With all of us needing the benefits of exercise, you will also have the satisfaction that your carbon footprint has been lowered substantially.
The SwissBike comes with: a frame made of Double tube 7005 series aluminum, 21 speeds, a Shimano TX Tourney 7-speed rear derailleur, Promax disc brakes, and SR Suntour crankset, just to name a few.
Two frame sizes are available for the SwissBike, 18-inch or 20-inch. The standover height, the height of the top tube, is either 29 or 30 inches depending on the frame chosen.
With the current state of the economy, threat of obesity, and the outlook for the global climate, it makes sense to commute by bike. Montague's Drive and Cycle commuting has proven to be effective in bridging the gap between commuting by car and commuting by bike, allowing people to have the flexibility to choose the mode of transportation needed at the moment.
Green Products believes in promoting personal health, reducing gas usage, adding to a cleaner environment and reducing roadway congestion.
**The State law in California requires employers who pay employees parking lot fees to give a cash allowance as a replacement for a parking space. Assembly Bill 2109, Katz; Chapter 554, Statutes of 1992, is called the parking cash-out program. After many studies, it has been shown that cash instead of paid parking persuades employees to find other means of transportation to their place of employment, like carpooling, vanpooling, bicycling, public transit, or walking.
