It did not take long before the patents of the Paratrooper folding mountain bikes were used for fast urban bikes. This resulted in two different bikes from the functionality point of view, but all with a similar folding frame.
The Allston is a super-smart variant of the Navigator. It is a very carefully thought-out Urban bike with the Shimano Alfine 11 speed gear system sealed in the rear hub with a fantastic maintenance-free Gates carbon belt drive, including the corresponding crankset. The oil pressure of the disc brakes provide the perfect braking modulation.
The basis of the Allston is the famous, light but surprisingly strong 7005 series alloyed aluminium frame with a tight steering steel fork. All this equipped with robust component parts and a patented rear rack which can be used for stable storage, parking and doing maintenance. As far as we are concerned, the ideal solution for commuting purposes with or without the use of public transport.

RackStand is a new concept in bicycle rack systems. It is a luggage carrier, mudguard, kickstand, and work stand all in one. It even makes folding and storing your folded bike easier.
Commuting – security and surveillance. And also ideal for storing in a car boot, for train, boat, mobile home and camper.
