As you might already know, your Bike Friday conveniently
packs into a hard shelled airline accepted suitcase. As you
pack your bike more often and become more familiar with
the process, your packing times will likely decrease over
time. Expect to spend between 15-60 minutes packing your
bike in a TravelCase (once you are familiar with the process).
Remove the Pedals
Loosen your pedals with
a pedal wrench. The right
pedal unthreads in a coun-
ter-clockwise direction and
the left pedal un-threads
in a clockwise direction.
(Remember that both ped-
als turn toward the rear of
the bike.) Place the pedals
in the blue felt bag labeled
“pedals.”
Separate Main Frame
Loosen the PakiT Main
Frame pinch bolts and
separate the two halves of
the main frame. Depress
the spring button, hold
the front wheel above the
rear wheel and use grav-
ity to assist in the separa-
tion of the main frame. If
this does not happen easy,
refer to the previous sec-
tion entitled “Adjusting
the Main Frame Sizing” for tips.
