Space-Saving Components

Fit Your Current Bike In Less Space.

Your current bike can fold instantly flat, with no tools.

Transport it easier, take it with you more, bring it inside for less theft, and
store it conveniently in smaller spaces. We call this portable adventure.

All you need are two swapped-out components from Flatbike.

Handlebars In The Way? Not Anymore!

A THINstem turns your handlebars instantly narrow with a simple cam latch. A notch automatically centers your bars for riding. And a safety lock underneath keeps your bars in place even if your hands have trouble with cam latches.

THINstem has passed the ISO 4210 destruction test suite for mountain bike stems.

Pedals In The Way? Not Anymore?

No more scratched cars during transport, shin dangers on bikes stored inside, or ride-off theft. Flatbike Pop-Off Pedals for mountain bikes and e-bikes simply remove in seconds with a pinch.

And yet, the patented double-latch socket is so strong, these are suitable for cross-country mountain biking and BMX. These are the world's only removable pedals to pass the ISO-4210 destruction test suite for MTB pedals.

Tame a Whole Herd of Bikes.

If one bike takes up a lot of space, how about a whole family’s bikes? Unrestrained, they can take over an entire corner of a garage, making access difficult.

Or they get left outside, for easier access and shorter lifespan. But a family of house-trained bikes? That changes everything. Five bikes can be stored in the same 15 square feet that one typical bike fits in. All are equally accessible and ridable in moments.

Flatbike: Solving Problems From Day 1.

I ran for daily exercise until bad knees forced me back to biking. But a bike is a lot harder to store between workouts than a pair of running shoes.

If only I could make my bike flat on demand, it could fit easily beside the car in the garage...

This line of thinking led to the creation of Flatbike, and the inventive focus on the three problems we fix for people every day:

  • How can I make my bike easier to transport, so I can take it more places and enjoy it more?
  • How can I make my bike easier to bring inside safely and conveniently, so it lasts longer and needs less maintenance?
  • How can I make my bike more resistant to ride-off theft?

Today, our customers in more than 20 countries ride every type of bike imaginable: e-bikes, MTBs, BMX bikes, road bikes, recumbents, folding bikes (lots of Bromptons), casual bikes---even a mountain unicycle (we now know that's a thing!)
