Montague Paratrooper Pro Folding Bike Review

Montague Bikes is famous for their Paratrooper folding bike and this one is even cooler! The Paratrooper Pro folding bicycle takes the best features of the original - suspension, disc brakes, strong frame - and goes to the next level with excellent components and a fully black paint job. The Paratrooper Pro bike is a great folding mountain bike for anyone who hates putting a bike rack on their car, or wants a regular size bike that folds for storage on their boat or RV. It's also a sturdy and reliable commuter folding bicycle.

We tune up all our bikes prior to shipping to ensure that they are in top notch condition and ready to perform perfectly right out of the box. The $75 tuneup included with the purchase of new bikes refers to a free tune up that we can perform if you come by our shop a few months after purchase. In that case we ensure everything is clean and working properly. Often for these tunes ups we tighten up shifting and brake cables, clean the chain, etc.

Yeah, it sure is beautiful! We really enjoyed working with this bike, especially because you look cool riding it. Thanks for watching! -Peter

*Nice and easy to fold and unfold. I like the **Latest.Bike** of it components and so far it rides pretty well in pavement-ed trails*

Depends on your inseam. If you have a 30 inch inseam the 18inch frame should be fine. If your inseam exceeds 30 inches, I think you'll be more comfortable on the 20 inch frame. Best- Jack

It's amazing to be able to cover this type of terrain on a bike that folds up this easily, I was really impressed with this bike when it came on the market - jack

The Pro gets an upgrade in the drivetrain department (27 speeds instead of 24), and bigger shocks that have ability to lock out for a rigid ride. There are a couple of other component upgrades as well. You can compare the spec sheets on our website!

A flying steady cam helicopter flown by NYCeWheels owner Bert. Its a quick portable setup but requires months and months of practice to fly smoothly. Thanks for watching! -Peter

[nycewheels]

Thanks! It took a few hours to get those flying shots, but they're worth it. -Peter

I love the fly shot at 1:29, good job! As far as the bike, the IF-mode is probably better folding design, albeit with not as sturdy build quality as this one.

Went on the subway with the Brompton folding bike the other day, it actually fits underneath the seat. Crazytown- jack

That's a great way to look at it, thanks for weighing in and for the great advice. Best- jack

Yessir, Bert the shop owner has a drone that is fit with professional grade cameras. So cool - jack

[nycewheels]

Wow, that's an impressive ride, sounds like you made the right decision with the Montague Fit. Keep in touch, let us hear about your rides, Best - jack

Sounds like the Stromer Electrifc Bike. Our model is in black or white, but its design is based on mountain bike proportions. - Jack

Prices change from year to year so I don't want to say in a comment. Just check the link in the video description, that goes to a product page. -Peter

[nycewheels]

Bert, the owner, does all the filming, he flies a remote control drone for the aerials. Very cool, you can see pics of it and get more info on our facebook page. - jack

Excellent post, thank you for sharing.

Yep, the Montagues work extremely well with BionX systems and tend to be very affordable, considering their quality. Good choice!
