BriefBike

A better bike for city transport

Our Mission

We want everyone to have access to a bike that’s more practical and appealing than a car for almost every urban journey

The Better Bicycles Project

We Believe in a bike that’s always with you

It should fold and unfold as easily as an umbrella. When folded, it should be as presentable and easy to roll behind you as a travel case. It should have room to carry things.
