THE INNOVATIVE FOLDING BIKE

Kwiggle is full of innovations. We optimized the world's most compact folding bike for every millimeter and every gram. We solved many 1000 design and manufacturing tasks until we were satisfied with the result:

The smallest folding size and greatest riding fun for any body size.

Experience mobile freedom, MADE in GERMANY.

SUPERIOR CYCLING


For us, the best innovation of the Kwiggle:

The fantastic upright movement on this folding bike.

After thousands of miles, we can confidently say:

Riding a Kwiggle is physiologically superior to normal bicycling.

THE FRAME

We only use high-strength stainless steel and 7000-series aluminum for the frame of the Kwiggle. 

  • The stainless steel steering tube and high-quality silver-brazed stainless steel joints bring springy comfort and ensures long-term stability.
  • All moving parts of the precision folding joints are equipped with extremely high quality wear protection. 
    This ensures a robust, exact closing joint, and with only one fold. This is unique and patented.
  • The lower frame parts have tab-like weld seams for the best possible stress distribution, manufactured with industrial robots in consistently outstanding MIG quality.
  • The rear frame section is particularly elegant and light and constructed as a single swingarm.
  • The fork is made from only one piece. This makes it light and strong at the same time.
  • We use sealed heavy duty 1.5 inch industrial angular contact ball bearings as the steering head bearings.

THE RIMS

In a special manufacturing process, the Kwiggle rims are manufactured from a single piece of wrought aluminum alloy, unique in the world, with outstanding properties:

  • light and rigid at the same time
  • wear-resistant even after many thousands of kilometers
  • highly corrosion resistant
  • highest running accuracy
  • polished noble look

This precision and robustness allows smooth running even at high speeds of 60 km/h (37 mph).

THE DRIVE

The Kwiggle's patented drivetrain brings the 12-inch wheels up to road bike speed at normal riding cadence.

The very robust mini derailleur reliably switches the 3 pinions with 7, 8 and 10 teeth. The pinion geometry allows a smooth shift change. The sprockets and the chain are made of the best materials that the bicycle market has to offer: high-strength stainless steel with outstanding wear resistance. This ensures many thousands of kilometers of running performance of chain and sprockets.

For maintenance, we recommend the oil and grease-free chain lubricant "DryFluids". High ceramic content provides a pleasant pedaling feel and significantly less dirt.

The bottom bracket gearbox for the 6-speed-gearshift.

The 6-speed gearshift is realized with the Doppio bottom bracket gearbox from Kappstein. The large shift jump of the bottom bracket gearbox (1: 1.57) ensures that the derailleur can provide 3 upper and 3 lower gears. Details about Doppio can be found here: Doppio bottom bracket gearbox from Kappstein

          THE CRANK UNIT

          • Miche Team CPT
          • Crank length 170 mm
          • 5-arm, bolt circle 110mm
          • 1 chainring with 46 Z
          • with integrated chain guard, 7075-T6 aluminum
          The Crank unit fulfills two important tasks. It has a particularly small Q-factor so that the feet can be as close together as possible. This is much more comfortable for riding while standing. In addition,  the Miche Team CPT is one of the lightest representatives of the square aluminum cranks.

          Chain wheel and chain guard are made of one piece, which results in a very noble look.

          THE TROLLEY WHEELS


          In trolley mode, the Kwiggle is easy to pull. Just like a trolley suitcase.

          The trolley wheels are made extra large for this purpose, so that pulling of the folded Kwiggle is easy and pleasant everywhere, even on uneven terrain.

          THE BRAKES

          The side-pull brake is the lightest and most space-saving brake there is. That's why we chose to use them.

          Because every millimeter and every gram counts.

          We have equipped the front brake with a brake force limiter, which prevents falling forward even when braking hard in the heat of the moment.

          THE LIGHTING
          The Eyro model from Busch and Müller combines detailed driveway illumination at 30 lux with high compactness. The EYRO is a battery powered front light of high quality. It can be simply removed for charging and than connected to a USB charger..

          We mount the EYRO just 40 cm above the ground in order to make the ground structure (edges, bumps) visible. The detection of cracks and bumps  on dark roads is therefore no problem. It also has an excellent light output.


          The rear-light

          The Spanninga Nr. 9 with reflector and battery convinces with its retro look.

                THE LUGGAGE RACK

                The rack is another highlight on the Kwiggle. We wanted to provide our customers with a solution for their existing Ortlieb bicycle bags without having to spend extra money on a separate luggage system. We have developed a rack that fits perfectly into the folding size, allows at least 10 kg load and weighs only 75 g.

                All current Ortlieb rear-wheel or Ortlieb front-wheel bags fit on the luggage carrier.

                THE PEDALS
                MKS XP-EZY with reflectore, only 330g.
                Perfect functioning plug-in principle.
                Quality made in Japan.

                We use plug-in pedals. This makes the folding size of the Kwiggle 2 cm narrower and has therefore hand luggage size..

                The pedal is very easy to remove with one hand and is significantly more robust than any folding pedal.
