Montague Paratrooper 18" Mountain Folding Bike

The Paratrooper is the original folding mountain bike from Montague. Its patented folding design was developed under a grant from DARPA to allow airborne soldiers to drop out of airplanes and helicopters, and into combat. The Paratrooper offers 24 speeds, front suspension, mechanical disc brakes, and a Rackstand for hauling gear. Known for its durability and load bearing capabilities, this folding bike has also developed a following with everyday commuters and weekend warriors.

Military Heritage

A classic from Montague, the Paratrooper is tough, rugged, and ready for anything. Designed to drop from the sky and land prepared for action, the Paratrooper can tackle any terrain, carry your gear, and fold to stash in your trunk.
