IMPORTANT NOTES:

We've been making this iconic bike since 2011. Paint finish and components (like pedals and cranks) vary over the years. For example:

Some 2019 models have black cranks and rack springs
Some 2019 models have wider frame tubing (see our lifestyle photo of blueberry bike in front of doorway as example)
"Chrome" colour option is painted, not chromed. Raspberry finish is metallic paint. All other colours are gloss paint.

Assembling your bike is empowering. It’s a great way to understand how it works! Please click here to view our step by step guide to assembly. View our assembly video here.

The bike arrives in a box.The handlebars, front wheel, front mudguard, pedals and saddle must be attached.
You will need a multi-tool or hex key set, 10mm spanner, 15mm wrench, scissors, pliers, a screwdriver and a pump.

Some things to note:

If you assemble your own bike, it’s very important that you do it correctly. If you have doubts, pay your local bike mechanic to check over your handiwork or assemble it for you.
In the first few weeks of use, you can expect your bike to ‘bed-in’. You must check everything is tight before each ride. Cables will stretch so your gears and brakes will need adjustment.

Finding the correct size bike starts with measuring the legs. Take a measuring tape, place it on the floor inside the leg and measure upwards. Now check the chart below.

	Frame size S/M	Frame size M/L
Inside Leg	25.6" - 33.5" 65cm - 85cm	30" - 37.5" 76cm - 96cm
Rider Height	5'2" - 5'7" 157cm - 170cm	5'6" - 5'10" 167.5cm - 178cm

Rider heights are given as a guide only. Everyone has different length legs, regardless of height. We strongly recommend measuring the inside leg before choosing the size!

If you can fit on either size:

Choose S/M if you are a nervous rider and/or want an easy “nippy” shopping bike.
Choose M/L if you are a confident rider and/or looking for a “dutch-style” bike. It has bigger wheels and a higher centre of gravity.

Fold

£425.00

Available in a rainbow of colours, with a new improved magnet design to aid quicker folding!

The Fold is designed to store in tight spaces but also to ride nicely. It has all the usual Bobbin features (duracork grips, sprung brown saddle, cream tyres, nice paint colour) with added functionality. The bars flop down and the pedals flip up, making it the perfect hallway bike. You can even fold it in two and pop it in your wardrobe or car boot! Just like origami. Unlike most folders, it comes fitted with mudguards, kickstand and a rear carrier for extra usefulness. It's also a great sharing bike, with a long quick-release seat post that will fit most heights.

So, if you’ve always harked after a classic Bobbin but don’t have the space, or simply want a folder with added va-va-voom, step this way.

Folded dimensions: approx 85cm long x 68cm high x 35cm wide
