| When
your arms are sore from kayaking the creeks, burn your legs by biking
the byways. That’s made easier for the boatbound by bicycles that
fold. The Montague DX Crossover ($400; Montague Corporation,
617-491-7200, (www.montagueusa.com)
is a full-size, 18-speed bike that functions between a full-on mountain
bike and a cruising bike, and in less than a minute it folds into a
roughly 3-foot-square by 1 foot-high package that’s easy to store
and transport. Its lightweight aluminum frame makes for easy pedaling
and easy lifting and maintains its structural efficiency because the
folding mechanism doesn’t require the interruption of the frame
tubes. |
