Folding Bike Frames

CHANGE redefines the freedom and infinite possibilities of building your custom bicycle. As the world's only folding bike frame that has passed all five ISO 4210 safety tests, we break traditional structural and strength limitations by seamlessly fusing standard full-size frame geometry with our globally patented folding structure. Built with high-rigidity aerospace-grade double-butted aluminum alloy tubing, it delivers the same uncompromised stiffness, precise handling, and pedaling efficiency as standard frames, allowing you to freely build your own custom folding road, gravel, or mountain bike for an ultimate custom riding experience.

Key Features & Performance

  • Globally Patented Folding Structure

    Main frame tubes remain uncut and unperforated, fully preserving primary triangular frame strength for top-tier riding rigidity, safety, and durability.

  • Tool-Free Quick Folding

    Utilizes a double quick-release system with patented locking mechanisms, allowing effortless folding and unfolding in seconds without any tools.

  • 100% Standard Component Compatibility

    Offers 100% compatibility with industry-standard bicycle components, seamlessly matching mainstream drivetrains, wheelsets, and brake systems for effortless assembly, maintenance, or upgrades.

  • Patented Locking & Auto Alignment

    Features a patented interlocking tooth-ring mechanism and a secondary safety lock, automatically aligning front and rear wheels while leaving the top tube completely clean and free of mechanism interference for comfortable straddling.

  • Rear Hub Motor E-Bike Compatibility

    Specifically engineered for e-bike conversion kits with enlarged cable ports and spacious front triangle battery clearance, enabling clean integration of rear hub motors without ruining frame aesthetics.

  • Ultimate Compact Storage & Mobility

    Folds into an extremely compact footprint. With dedicated kickstands and front fork hooks, the folded frame can be securely locked to stand or be pushed along (pushing feature available on Gravel models, not MTB models), or easily stowed in car trunks.

CHANGE Folding Bike Frame is your ultimate choice for crafting a high-performance custom bike, combining extreme structural rigidity with complete mobility.

FAQs

Do CHANGE folding frames come in different sizes? How do I choose the right frame size for my height?

Yes. CHANGE frames are engineered precisely according to standard gravel and mountain bike geometries, providing ergonomic frame proportions in multiple size options. By matching your height and inseam, you can select the frame size that fits you best, enjoying a professional riding position and comfort identical to standard non-folding frames. (For detailed sizing recommendations, please refer to the "Gravel and Mountain Frame Size Chart" at the bottom of this page).

How is the structural strength and safety of CHANGE folding frames?

The patented CHANGE folding frame features a structural design that keeps the main triangle tubes completely intact without cutting them, maintaining the full rigidity of a traditional diamond frame. Furthermore, CHANGE folding frames have fully passed the stringent ISO 4210 safety standards set by the European Union—a rigorous test that most conventional folding bikes cannot pass. Whether for long-distance loaded touring or off-road riding, they deliver the same structural strength and durability as standard bicycles.

Can I purchase a CHANGE folding frame separately? How is component compatibility?

Yes, you can purchase the frame set separately and have a professional bicycle mechanic build it up with your preferred components and specifications. CHANGE frames use 100% market-standard specifications (including headset, bottom bracket, seatpost diameter, brake mounts, and wheel axle standards). When assembled or upgraded by a professional bike shop with high-end drivetrains or braking systems, they are fully compatible with standard components from major global brands without proprietary restrictions.

What standard accessories are included when purchasing a CHANGE folding frame set?

CHANGE frame sets come with a comprehensive set of premium accessories to facilitate custom building and transport:
Gravel Folding Frame Set: Includes folding frame, rigid fork, derailleur hanger, headset, cover bag, detachable pedals, and seat clamp.
Mountain Folding Frame Set: Includes folding frame, derailleur hanger, headset, carrying bag, detachable pedals, and seat clamp.

What are the differences between gravel and mountain folding frames regarding tire clearance, mounting eyelets, and e-bike upgrade options?

Both frames are specifically designed for their intended riding scenarios:
Gravel Folding Frame: Supports tire clearance up to 700C x 35C. It comes equipped with versatile cargo eyelets (6 on the fork, 2 on the top tube, 3 on the seat tube, and 3 on the down tube) and pre-drilled internal routing ports for dropper seatposts.
Mountain Folding Frame: Supports tire clearance up to 27.5 x 2.1 inches. It features cargo eyelets (3 on the seat tube and 3 on the down tube) and pre-drilled internal routing ports for dropper seatposts.

In addition, both frames reserve dedicated space for rear-drive e-bike system upgrades and feature an oversized exit port designed specifically for rear-drive electric kits, capable of routing up to 6 cables for seamless future rear-drive electrification.
