Montague 18 Paratrooper Military Folding Mountain Bike – Reviews

Great bike design but components were lacking: front derailer broke on a high speed peddle twice and rear brake cable came off its bracket just below the seat while pumping the brake creating a situation where I had no rear brake.

Excellent bike. Neatly fits in my trunk. The ride is awesome. Recommend it for anyone who is on the go and needs time during the day to get out for a quick ride during long breaks at shifts at work.

The bike arrived fairly quickly. The packaging was impressive. You could pack a tank in the thick double cardboard box provided. It’s pretty much pre-assembled. You just fold out the frame, bolt on the pedals with the provided wrench, put the front tire back on, fill the tires, and off you go. Quality control should have caught that my back tire was wacked. The valve was damaged. I changed the valve and it still wouldn’t hold air. Maybe I picked up a thorn on that first ride and maybe it was the tire. No problem, $20 bucks at the bike shop and I’m on the road again. It has cumbersome gear shifters from SRam (x-5), but you can always change those if you are picky. I live in El Paso, where everything is hills, so I really liked the Promax disc drakes. They could throw you over the handlebars if you aren’t wary. The frame is very, very durable and the weight is still ok. Overall, a great bike for the price.

I knew there were road bikes that are foldable but a folding mountain bike?!! I compared Montague with other folding bikes. None compared to it. The others either had less number of gears, were too expensive or their design wasnt good. I have had this bike for about 3 months and have already put like 100 miles on it. Its amazing, the color, design everything. The folding mechanism is awesome..and yes it takes less than 30 seconds to fold and unfold it. You will love it…worth the money. I got it directly from “[...]“. Its less pricey on their website and their service is great.
