BTWIN TILT 120 FOLDING BIKE REVIEW | £199 😮

#cycling #foldingbike #btwintilt120 #decathlon

Looking for a bike that takes up minimal storage and can be transported anywhere lead us to the BTWIN Tilt 120 Folding Bike. This bike is suitable for riders of all heights which is perfect given that my wife is 5'0 and i'm 5'11.

I will do a video after this, as mentioned, demonstrating the folding/unfolding process and the ride quality (the day of filming was foggy and not ideal for scenic review!).

At £199 this bike is a great value purchase and has so far served us incredibly well.

Did nearly 1000 kms on this in 2 months... perfect bike... I was so skeptical about the folding aspect, however this bike surprised me with all the aspects I was worried about..it runs just like a big bike..it can be slightly tough climbing steep slopes compared to big bikes, everything else is superrrree

Unfolding takes literally 10 seconds
Folding takes approx 30 seconds... for me

I own this just few days ago. It cost 280 $ in India. Bike is most fentastic and portable and love to drive.

When it first came out. Dint like the design as it looked very futuristic and modern making me think that it might not look as nice after few years, but since I found out that it’s made of hi ten steel frame ( which Iam a massive fan ) I started to accept it and really thinking of buying especially its from a local shop not online. Dig it and yes to steel frame bikes

Hilariously the 2 bikes you've reviewed, are the 2 exactly I own, down to the colour!

I've had this foldable bike (Lewis Cafoldy), since September 2019, and have ridden over a thousand kms on it. Have done way more kms than a commuter bike should, and it's lasted so long.

The acceleration on this guy is amazing - if feels like a really nice ride. Perfect for a run around bike and honestly, 25+ km cycles, consistently won't be too much for it.

Make sure to service it maybe 6 months in, keep an ear out for sounds or wear and tear, chain lubricant (like £5 ) worth the investment and you'll get a heap out of this bike.

That looks a proper bargain - Decathlon do some very good gear indeed (I'm wearing 3 items of clothing from them right now...). It'll be interesting to see how this bike shapes up over time.

I saw a video in which a lady packs the brompton in ikea dimpa bag, I wonder if this is bigger folded or the same 🤔

[kanikasingh]

Here in India, a brompton is very very expensive...so thinking of this, Btwin are good bikes just want to make sure its nice and compact, of course it can beat the brompton anyways but atleast in budget and solves the purpose. Please share if its a good buy 🙂

I'm getting one in that color exactly. They've sold out of them quite fast. Popular bike for sure.

Hi, great video thank you for sharing. Have you published the folding/unfolding/riding video yet?

[jianizzledrizzle]

I have this bike in fact im going to ride later just waiting for the rain to stop

[Nein]

how does the front light work (the one integrated into the frame, if that is in fact a light)? is it powered by the wheels? is it rechargeable? or does it require batteries?

[markdoughty]

Thanks, but, how do they compare to a Brompton? It's a fraction of the price of a new Brompton, but, is it also a fraction of the (Brompton) bike too?

[dirtyharry]

Whats the max user weight on this bike. The seat post looks good and strong

[marcinrzepa]

Hiya
Thanks for video, one question tho do you have an idea how much is maximum weight for a rider on this bike please

[hobocyclist]

cool bike! its easier and cheaper to buy a bike in a bigger country, here in Nz it is expensive and difficult to find!

[AmanBhimani]

Do you know what’s the main difference between the 120 and the 500 version?

[bonzobanana]

Only thing I can see as a bit of a negative is the lack of height adjustment for the handlebars so this will limit the range of people who can use the bike but I guess some may not mind having high handlebars but its not a ideal bike fit. What is the weight limit on the bike? I know it used to be 100kg total load so leaves about 85kg for the rider but wondered if it had changed.

A lot of folding bikes have disappeared from retailers in recent times, Argos did a brilliant model for £150 but I'm not sure if there has been any stock for a while, a Cross model I think. Decent aluminium frame, Shimano components and height adjustable handlebars but generally prices have shot up at other retailers with pandemic pricing.

ive just got one of these whats the cap on the front for i thought it was a light

[kanikasingh]

How has the bicycle been so far? Is more bigger than brompton?

[ShantiSwaroopPrabhakar]

do you know what the tyres are like - I mean does it need a pump every now and then..and what is the puncture proof/performance in your experience?
thanks
