Description
The Navigator is a 27-speed folding bike that is built for the daily commute. Along with 700c tires and the Octagon height-adjustable stem, this bike comes standard with fenders and a rear rack, prepared for the commute to work in rain or shine. It folds in under 20 seconds without the use of tools, offering flexibility in today’s multi-tasking world.
Customer Testimonials
“The bike (in my opinion) feels stiffer than a normal bike around the bottom bracket and still comfortable when riding. I rode this bike to and from work down the canal tow paths, they are not great this time of year so it was a good little test for the ‘urban’ model. Overall the bike feels solid, not like a folding bike at all. This model comes with the rack and mudguards as standard although the accessories are available for all of the 700c wheeled bikes. The guards are narrow but I was surprised to rock up outside my house and still be mud free.. so the guards are a winner for me. So the bike rides well, does it fold well. YES. This bike is a great idea if you are a leaisure cyclist who maybe has a caravan or motor home, live on a boat or just need to get the bike in the car on a regular basis. All of the Montague bikes are easy to fold and its really quick. Again, a tool-less process and you don’t need a degree in engineering to get the bike in the car.”
“The bike was really well packaged and pretty easy to put together – you get lots of documentation. The bike is better than what I expected!! The folding option is really easy to do. It took a few time to figure it out but there are definate bonuses to having a full size bike with regular rims/tires/frame size etc. Would definitely buy from Montague again”…”Very Satisfied with everyone involved.”
“It folds up easily, is lightweight and can fit in the back of the car, but has full size tyres. I needed something for a mix of road and footpath, and to put on trains at times for my commute and this ticks the boxes.”
Included Accessories
The Navigator comes standard with a rack to keep the load off your back, and fenders to keep you warm and dry. The clever placement of the rack and detachable fenders keeps the folding simple and easy, the it was designed.
CLIX Folding System
Clever integration of CLIX technology allows for the Navigator to be folded in under 20 seconds without the use of tools. A flip of the CLIX quick release lever on the top tube and the folding bike morphs to a compact size.
Folding Integrated Technology
The Navigator frame is designed around a patented folding system. This design eliminates the need to break the frame in order to fold the bike. Not only does this make folding easier but it makes this bike the strongest folding bike on the market. The Folding Integrated Technology (F.I.T.) is based around frame construction concepts designed for serious full suspension downhill bikes.
700c Road Wheels
Each bike in our pavement series comes equipped with 700c wheels. This wheel size offers a significantly better ride than 24″, 20″, or 16″ wheels. By keeping it smooth over potholes, and enchancing the handling of the bike, the 700c wheels are ideal over pavement and trails.
Handlebar Height Adjustment
The Octagon offers all the benefits of an angle adjustable stem without shortening reach when raised. This unique design allows for handlebar height to be changed while preserving the way the folding bike handles and rides. Also, with the octagonal shape of the post, steering remains engaged while raising or lowering the stem.
