Your Montague bike is designed for
quick folding and unfolding without the
use of tools. The following steps should
increase the rider’s safety and prevent
damage or scratches when folding or
unfolding the bicycle.
1. Standing on the chain side of your
bike, set the front brake to the open
position.

For caliper equipped bikes, see
Fig. 33, page 31.
•
For V-brake equipped bikes,
see Fig. 34, page 31.
•
For disc brake equipped bikes
continue on to the next step.
2. Open the CLIX front wheel quick
release lever, then squeeze the cup
and quick release lever together using
the same motion used when operating
a syringe (Fig. 28.b page 28) while
removing the wheel (Fig. 35).
3. Lower the seat. (Fig. 10 page 21).
4. Open the frame quick release lever
(Fig. 35).
5. With your thumb, press and hold the
knurled lever inward. This opens the
quick release clamp. (Fig. 36).
6. While holding the quick release open
with one hand, grasp the handlebars
with the other and turn them away
from you (Fig. 37).
7. Pull the boom tube of the bike toward
you and fold the bike in half (Fig. 37).
8. If done correctly, the bike should
resemble Fig. 38 with the handlebars
secured between the rear wheel and
the boom tube.
9. Reattach the Velcro strap from the
handlebars to the rear wheel.
