To enable you to do more and to see more. To be free from the worries of bike theft, and the stresses of driving in busy city centres.

Commute Take the fast route through the city, beat the traffic and save time. You’ll find you arrive at work alert and full of energy, getting your daily exercise on your way to work. If your journey is too far to travel only by bike, why not combine different transport methods. Bigfish® folds compact enough to take onto the bus, train or in your car. And when you arrive at work there’s no need to worry about theft as you can simply take your Bigfish® inside and store it under your desk. Don’t lose your nerves in the city. Save time and money on parking, fuel, fines, congestion charges…
Bigfish® beats the working blues! It works because you do. (home experiments prove that 9 out of 10 people who commute using Bigfish® arrive at work with a greater spring in their step and brighter sparkle in their eyes!)

Travel A fantastic way to see new cities is to stick the bike in the back of your car with your luggage, there’s no need to put it on the roof or on a bike rack. Why not park on the outskirts of the city and cycle the rest of the way into the centre? It’s guaranteed you’ll have a more fulfilling trip. And it’ll even save you money. Take it on a camping trip, or put it in the back of your mobile home. You can keep it with you all the time and see so much more by bike – four times the distance you can travel on foot in the same time period – and your Bigfish® will get you to all the places your car isn’t allowed to go to. Explore new cities, travel by planes, trains, automobiles and Bigfish®. And at the end of the day stow it safely back in your hotel room. That’s what Bigfish® freedom is all about… having choices, to do more and see more.

Relax Take the long route home, meet friends for a drink or go out for a meal. Bigfish’s awesome riding quality will take you further, just fold it up and you can check into a cloakroom or keep it safely next to you at your table while you eat. If it rains, so what? Just hop into a cab or bus with the bike, or put Bigfish® back in the car and keep it there for another day. A comfortable riding position, fast acceleration, nimble and agile across the city, Bigfish® gives you the time and freedom to do more when the working day is done. When you’re finished just take it into your apartment and keep it
with you, free from bike thieves. Why not rediscover the joys of cycling, in a way that fits your life wherever you are, whatever you’re doing?

orange matt black metalic pink gold
The patent-pending “clip-clap” folding system means no screwing, no additional tools and no dirty hands. And the simple fold and unfold is achieved in 10-15 seconds. When folded it stands upright, leaving your hands free – letting you check your map or pay for a coffee. The folded package also clips firmly together meaning no loose or stray parts (and no dirty looks from fellow commuters). Unlike any other folding bike you can actually pull it along on its back wheel when folded, avoiding damage to clothing, or a strained back, making it much easier to negotiate a crowded railway platform. It also folds flatter, great for fitting into tight spaces. Bigfish’s unfolded dimensions match those of a full-sized bike, guaranteeing a ride of full-size proportions. The hinge-free frame means efficient energy transmission and a ride that’s sturdy and responsive. You think you know folding bikes? Think again!
