Here is your chance to own a classic, high performance, full suspension race/touring bike that can easily travel with you.
In 1962, Alex Moulton unveiled his revolutionary small-wheeled, full
suspension bicycle. Fifty years and millions of rider miles later, we
remain true to the original Moulton principles of small wheels and full
suspension for comfort and speed. To mark the Golden Jubilee of our
iconic bicycle, we are proud to present the new Moulton Jubilee - small
20” wheels and full suspension for the longest or shortest of rides, on
the smoothest or roughest of roads.
Hands down, the Moulton is one
of the best riding bikes on the road today. This is due, in large part,
to the highly adjustable suspension system. It allows the advantage of
strong, rigid wheels in combination with high pressure/low rolling
resistance tires, while still providing a more comfortable ride than a
conventional bike. The suspension also maintains and improves traction
on rough or loose surfaces.
This bike is painted in the original
Bugatti Blue color of the special edition Jubilee 50, of which, as the
name implies, only 50 were made world-wide.

Like many of the space frame Moulton's, this bike will fit into an airline legal Samsonite suitcase (Flite GT 31") for travel. Simply remove the wheels, disconnect the cable couplings and separate the frame members by removing the fixing bolt and loosening the thumb screw. It takes about one minute to disassemble and then carefully pack the bike into the case for travel.
This bike has been lovingly built by the folks at Freedom Folding Bikes in Boulder, CO.
