6. FOLDING YOUR MONTAGUE BIKE
3.
Pull the bike up into the vertical position and stand on the chain side
with the rear tire on the ground between your feet. Open the quick
release lever on top of the boom tube (Fig. 12). Spin it counterclock-
wise 5 to 6 complete rotations, then with the heal of your hand press
and hold down the quick release to lower quick release nut out of
the quick release drop box while folding the bike with the handlebars
turned away from you so they fold into the rear wheel (Fig. 13). This
is best done by placing your other hand on top of the frame and
pushing away from you.
For extra compactness: open the quick release below the saddle and lower
the saddle all the way down. Then close the quick release below the saddle
(Fig. 14).
