Best folding mountain bike: Rietti ‘Army Recon’ folding mountain bike review

If you need to stick to your principles and just can’t or won’t sacrifice what you stand for, then Rietti’s latest addition to the world of folding bikes (or more specifically the ‘Army recon’ style of folding mountain bikes) has its name. written all over the place.

In your case, money may or may not be an option or it may simply be a case of refusing to compromise your ideals. Let’s face it, what you drive or what you drive says a lot about who you are; There is simply no way around that in today’s society. Personally, I have always been and always will be a sports car type of man. My sports car is my identity and it says as much about me as my leather jacket, my watch, my sneaker collection and my girlfriend. It’s sleek, sleek, fast, shifts gears and paces quickly and on the fly and maneuvers in and out of traffic and around current and potential obstacles in the blink of an eye. If I want to get downtown from my office on the outskirts of town, I just put a classic ‘Prodigy’ on my front-line stereo system and I’m there in twenty minutes.

Now what does this have to do with an Army Recon folding mountain bike? Questions … Everything.

I’m more likely to trade my sports car for a station wagon, station wagon, station wagon, family sedan, or even an SUV, than to start wearing corduroys and dockers or boat shoes and crocs; It’s just not going to happen, not now, not later, not ever. My sports car defines my style and style DOES matter, it is who I am and how I relate to my world.

Now, personal history tells me that many people either don’t know what they want and who they are or are too willing to compromise on those things without a moment’s hesitation. I can speak from personal experience. A few years ago, before I discovered the world of mountain bikes, regardless of the folding mountain bike or better yet the Rietti Army Recon folding mountain bike, I bought an Eagle Talon. Now being a bit of a trend setter and possessing a clear sense of personal style, also, before fashion, I bought a black leather jacket with fine supple lambskin buttons on a business trip to London, England. Although I was the first of my friends to own a black leather jacket of this cut and style and also the first to buy an Eagle Talon, it would not be the last. Shortly afterwards two of my friends proceeded to buy the coat and the car and then there were three left.

Now, for me, my Eagle Talon served my purposes perfectly. It had decent gas mileage for a high-performance machine, was relatively easy to park, could comfortably carry a passenger (my girlfriend), and was uncomfortable enough to deter undesirables, thanks to the microscopic rear seat. Also most importantly, the rear seat folded down and I was able to remove the wheels from my Kona ‘Lavadome’ mountain bike and while it was somewhat dirty and somewhat inconvenient in the days before folding mountain bikes, I was able to carry my bike from mountain during normal off-road weekend. adventure. As for my two friends, well, six months after buying an Eagle Talon they traded it in for a truck, a mortgage, and a white picket fence with my wife and 2.5 kids. Of course I am exaggerating for the effect, but I wonder if some people really know what they are looking for if they are willing to change their mind faster than I change gears.

Now to be honest I’m not a huge gearing fan or even a huge athlete or extreme adrenaline enthusiast and I’m not interested in adding more war scars like I picked up in the year I gripped my mountain bike. the back seat of my sports car. You see, long before the good folks at Rietti designed their Army Recon folding mountain bike, a weekend warrior had to make up for the lack of a proper folding mountain bike by folding his back seat.

While I sold my Eagle Talon a long time ago and my Kona mountain bike is somewhere in Thailand at my dad’s house, the endearing message is the need for a folding mountain bike versus a standard mountain bike; especially one that is durable, reliable and offers performance and style like the Rietti Army Recon folding bike. I choose to travel light on the ride of a lifetime now and neither my mother nor my sister have any extra storage space in their Vancouver apartment so their typical non-folding mountain bike struggles in this scenario. It seems as big, beautiful and untamed as the great outdoors of Canada it may be that no one in the center or suburbs has room to spare these days.

Now let’s talk a little more about the Rietti folding mountain bike.. While I’m not the brave type or crazy enough to buy a racing motorcycle or even a high-performance road bike (like my friend who broke his collarbone last weekend), I have no interest in an SUV at In terms of gas prices, road performance or environmental consequences and I’m not going to put a roof rack on my sports car, it doesn’t mean I don’t harbor a fantasy or two.

What guy doesn’t like toughness, performance, and style, and the Army Recon Folding Mountain Bike has all of those qualities and more. Personally, I go for vintage motorcycles and Rietti’s Army Recon look has that covered and for all my GQ-inspired style aspirations what to drink beer, love hockey fights, eat steaks, ride a self-respecting air guitar? himself a red blooded Canadian wouldn’t love to hold onto a Hummer’s keys for a day. That’s what the Army Recon Mountain Bike is to folding bikes. In a word, the ‘Hummer’ of folding bikes. It’s big, strong, and durable, but somehow it has the classic styling of a Harley Davidson ‘Fatboy’, the smooth gearshift of my Eagle Talon, and the clean, crisp lines of my black leather jacket.

If you are looking for a folding bike and not just any folding mountain bike, but one that has the power, style and finesse that is reminiscent of your own independent and individualistic spirit of no compromise, there is only one option. The Rietti Army Recon is the only folding mountain bike on the market that possesses the same strength of character and strength of purpose as you.
