Comments on: Sailing the World with Montague – Scotland to the Caribbean https://www.montaguebikes.com/folding-bikes-blog/2019/09/sailing-with-montague-scotland-caribbean/ Performance Folding Bikes for Road and Mountain Thu, 01 Oct 2020 00:35:05 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.2 By: Sherm https://www.montaguebikes.com/folding-bikes-blog/2019/09/sailing-with-montague-scotland-caribbean/#comment-85669 Thu, 01 Oct 2020 00:35:05 +0000 https://www.montaguebikes.com/?p=61486#comment-85669 So no shortage from me on the excitement of Montague Folding Bikes. The 3 bikes I own and ride a couple times a week are
1. Cannondale Road frame with Cross Wheels & Treads (just enough aggressive knobby tread to grab most any terrain) My favorite type of ride is 2-3 hours of on & off road terrain.

2. My TREK Off Road Bike is Front Susp with standard brakes and serves my purposes well in the forested Single Track I ride frequently.

3. My original very old school “bone crusher” hardtail & straight forks stays on the Indoor Trainer for the longer winter months in the Northeast.

So my big dilemma is finding the right folding Montague bike that most resembles the type of riding I do on the Cannondale Cross bike I mentioned first (#1). Constantly altering terrain; on and off pavement. If I could find such a bike that is also a folding bike; that is, it will pretty much travel with me in my vehicle All The Time allowing me to essentially always be able to ride on any short notice.

Any thoughts ?

That’s nice there a model with a belt drive. Unfortunately, you can’t retrofit a belt. I had my paratrooper custom made with schlumpt drive, belt drive, Rohloff speed hub. All on a $5000 titanium paratrooper. The best bike you never made.
Like your design, couldn’t wait for Montague to make it.

Our Allston model is extremely popular with boat owners, and has been featured by several marine media outlets, including Boating and Yachting Magazine. It comes equipped with a belt in place of a metal chain and a sealed internal gear hub, which make it almost entirely corrosion resistant.

I’ve had some problems with corrosion, more than with our 20″ mariner folding bike.
