If you have never seen a folding bike before, your first thought may be “how convenient, that bike can fit into the trunk of my car-I don’t need a bike rack”. We say you are right, but wait until you ride it. We would be surprised if after a few minutes in the saddle, your whole paradigm hasn’t shifted. The Slice is a sturdy, fast, great handling bicycle guaranteed to put a big whopping grin on your face. You will soon think of it as a bike that folds, not a folding bike. GO2O.

The Slice is designed with the Shimano Sora rear derailleur which covers the full range of gearing in a simple 8 speed configuration. We believe that unless you are mountain biking or road racing, 24 or 27 gears are completely unnecessary and just get in the way of your enjoyable riding experience. The SRAM MRX Pro grip shifter makes shifting completely intuitive; you click the grip away from you to go to the next higher gear and towards you to go to the next lower gear. A large numerical display by the hand grip lets you see what gear you are in the whole time.

The Slice is made from lightweight 7005 aluminum and is easy to put in and out of the trunk, carry into the office or classroom, or store in the apartment closet. The seat is comfortable but firm, allowing you to stay in the saddle as long as you like. The rear wheel mounted kickstand is out of the way and convenient for those moments when you actually have to stop riding. High quality rims and high powered V-brakes round out the design.

Melon designed this bike as an easily transported alternative to comfort bikes, fitness bikes, commuting bikes, and the typical low cost mountain bike. An upright riding position makes for an enjoyable day in the saddle. All this said, we never get enough of seeing a person’s face light up the first time that they GO2O. Believe us it’s different than you might think. Recreational riding, commuting, going to class, fitness riding, running errands, and chasing kids have now been changed forever.
