MONTAGUE PARATROOPER ELITE 27.5" FOLDING BIKE

The Paratrooper Elite is the highest performance folding mountain bike in the world, an aggressive hard tail built for technical single track.

Larger 27.5-inch wheels roll over any obstacle while a full Shimano XT drivetrain, Shimano XT hydraulic disc brakes, and Rockshox Recon suspension provide performance never before seen from a folding bike. Built upon the heritage of Montague’s Swiss Military® folding bikes, the Elite takes the mountain line to new heights.
