Details
The Verge S8i is the world's most versatile ultra-low-maintenance folding bike. It's designed around a Gates belt drive and Shimano's 8-speed internal-gear Alfine hub. The result is a practically silent super-commuter with no greasy parts or protruding derailleurs, plus a gear range for any incline. The S8i has an extra-long wheelbase and Schwalbe Big Apple tires, so it rolls confidently over any and all potholes. It will get you there quickly, cleanly, and most importantly, in style.
