Unfolding The BigFish Folding Bike Posted by: RideTHISbike
Video duration: 224 seconds The BigFish is a new type of bicycle that folds. Rather than have the frame fold, the front and rear wheels fold under and into the bike's frame. Neat. The handlebars and pedals also fold, giving the bike a more narrow width than other folding bikes. This is truly a bike that will store beneath a desk. Also, the BigFish can be rolled when folded, minimizing the need to carry this 26+ lb bike. Related: bigfish, bike, folding Display Video Comments | Hide Video Comments | Add Comment |

No & here's why: the intellectual rights to the Gekko were sold to a new company that is looking for a factory to produce licensed copies. Meanwhile, several other companies are producing knock-offs but at least one of those knock-offs used substandard bushings at the fold points. As a result, those knock-off Gekkos' quickly become wobbly/unstable and unrideable... Hopefully, a licensed version will be available soon as this is a great bike when produced properly. Larry

Is there a direct website to buy this bike from? All the sellers that claim to sell this bike don't have it in stock at this time.

I weighed it on a bathroom scale, it was 33lbs on the button. you can trust the specs unlike others who fudge their numbers. don't know about the pedaling more because I don't have another small wheeler to compare it to.
By: tiberiusbeeteekirk. on 27 Sep 08, 04:00:56
I've been riding this all summer. however while hammering on it and standing on the pedals, the pedal stripped out of the crankarm. it was my fault for trying to go really fast on something that's not made for speed. I glued it back with epoxy and it's holding up so far. Love the bike, components are better than what's on the low end stuff. kids luv it. folds under a bar chair in the kitchen. folding is a breeze, just push down or pull up. no bending, no getting dirt or grease on you.
By: nanai5. on 27 Aug 08, 03:00:57
Please how heavy is it? and don't you have to pedal more because the wheel are smaller than others bicycles. thanks
By: electricfire25. on 20 Aug 08, 06:23:29
the bike is amazing, it kinda looks cool to, but is it any fast?
By: ThisCanadian. on 17 Jun 08, 15:29:53
*great* pricepoint. interesting. slower knockdown, but a great pricepoint. THE THING IS SMALLER than those SUV-Strollers the SnottyMommies like to plow through public spaces (& people!) in Toronto... & I'm betting it tidily fits under the average cubicle desk, too! I'm liking it! ??????????????????? BlueBerry Pick'n can be found @ ThisCanadian com ?? "We, two, form a Multitude" ~ Ovid. ?? "Silent Freedom is Freedom Silenced" ???????????????????

Hey it just occured to me that it would be awesome to get one of these to put in your car if you have to go distances longer than you want to ride. Say you're driving along and you run out of gas. You unfold the bike, ride to the nearest station and bring back fuel. lol! of course you could use the bike for shorter distances when running errands close to home, just be sure to return it to the car.

Bike Friday's are great folding bikes; however, there are only a select few folding bikes that can roll when folded (A-Bike, Gekko, Mobiky, CarryMe series and the Bike Friday Tikit). Of these, the Gekko is the most economical; it also has the highest carry capacity because it's made of steel. Naturally, the steel frame makes the Gekko heavier than the others; however, for many cyclists, it's just right.
By: robinmadrid. on 10 Jun 08, 08:14:32
If your serious about a folding bike, buy a bikefriday. Yes they are very expensive but they are beautifully made and ride like nothing I've been on.
By: RideTHISbike. on 05 Jun 08, 01:55:10
Actually, the bike folds & unfolds pretty smoothly. The real issue with the Gekko is weight. The bike is made from steel rather than aluminum alloy. That makes it strong but heavy. Naturally, the "rolls when folded" design decreases the need to lift the bike but there are still times when lifting is inevitable.

I hope the security pin is on a chain. It looks like a rider has to pump iron to be able to push down & pull up hard.

Well, the Danish Army has a mount for their sub machine gun to fit on bicycle handlebars. I've seen one on a Paratrooper folding mountain bike. Although I sell the Paratrooper folding bikes, I don't offer the machine gun mounts. Sorry.
By: brodrodough. on 06 May 08, 16:23:21
I have to ride through a dangerous neighborhood, could I mount a 50 cal. machine gun on that?
By: RideTHISbike. on 17 Mar 08, 16:28:35
What makes the Gekko work is that it rolls when folded, significantly decreasing the need to carry this bike. Combining that with the Gekko's comfortable ride (thanks to wide, low pressure tires) and great price makes this bike a winner for riding short distances in urban areas.

That is a great place to ride you do a lot of walking in that part of town. Man I miss Going to New Orleans.

ok thanks.

The Strida is similar in size to a golf bag. If your locker is big enough, the new Strida 5 would probably be the right bike for you. From what others have told me, the Strida 5 is a vast improvement over the previous versions. The US importer is sending me one to review so you may want to wait until I've reported on it.
By: skateguitar15. on 02 Dec 07, 23:06:26
the a bike lookes like my crotch would explode the second i sit on it, and i live a little more than a mile away from school and up a hill. i would last that long on the a bike. my locker is about a foot wide. the stride looks like it could fit though.
By: RideTHISbike. on 02 Dec 07, 01:58:01
What size is your locker? If the Gekko's too big, there's the A-Bike (as long as you weigh less than 185 lbs and ride on really smooth pavement).
By: skateguitar15. on 02 Dec 07, 01:38:59
i wish it was small enough to fit in my locker at school...
By: geniegogo. on 25 Nov 07, 17:22:13
Nice! =)
By: RideTHISbike. on 23 Nov 07, 23:35:48
I love the size & weight of the A-Bike; however, the trade offs required to deliver those results are substantial. Though the Gekko is on the heavy side, the bike is sturdy and rolls when folded, making it far more practical than the A-Bike (it even costs less). To my knowledge, there are no shops selling Gekko's in the UK at this time. With the strength of the Pound versus the dollar, it would probably be cheaper to fly to the USA & get one... Isn't that crazy.
