About Flatbike, Inc.

Written by the company

Full-size bikes are fun and easy to ride, but not so fun and easy to store and transport. Do you buy a bike rack for your car, driving around with the sensors covered and valuables outside your car---or is there a better way? When your bike is inside, how do you keep it conveniently accessible, yet out of the way?

This is what makes Flatbike so popular. Flatbike solves these problems, whether you already have a bike you like or are in the market for one that fits your life better.

Full-size folding bikes, including mountain bikes, hybrids, and gravel bikes, offer a quality riding experience. Then these bikes simply fold in half to fit conveniently in a car trunk, truck cab, RV cubbyhole, or below deck in a boat. Or, if you already have a bike that you love but it takes up too much space, a Flatten Your Bike kit can make your existing bike fold flat in seconds, fitting easily against walls in small apartments or garages.

Ultimately, these improvements make your bike more compatible with transportation and where you live. Put it all together, and you end up with bikes that are more accessible, more portable, and take you more places to ride and explore. It’s portable adventure!

I purchased an Adventure Bike

I purchased an Adventure Bike, but I had several questions about and Bob was kind (and patient enough) to answer all my questions. The bike itself is incredibly nice and comes as described!

Rapid answer by email wen I've make a mistake in the shipping address. Shipping was fast but UPS charge $30CAD for collecting the $6 canadian taxes.

Besides that, the quick pop off pedals are very useful.

Outstanding customer service!

The customer service was incredibly responsive despite the time difference. Bob was so helpful and honest in advising us as to what bicycles would fit our needs. Our items were delivered in the time frame promised. Ordering our bikes was a wonderful experience.

Highly recommended

Quick response to email queries.
I'm in the UK, but Bob was happy to demonstrate the bike to my brother and his girlfriend who live locally in the US, so they could check the frame size would be OK for me.
The bike was prepared and shipped on a Monday and received on the Friday, so really pleased with the service. Was well packaged and arrived undamaged. The bike is great, just what I wanted, a full size bike which can easily be folded and fits in a Renault Clio!
Would highly recommend this company.

I recently purchased a Flatern your bike kit from Bob at Flatbike.

From my initial email enquiries all the way through to delivery of my kit to Western Australia. My experience was 5 ⭐.

Bob answered all my questions promptly and clearly.

DHL delivery to Australia was offered as an option and at a very fair price.

The kit was ordered on Fri and I received it on Tue ( 5 days delivery including the weekend to Australia) ✅

Most importantly the MTB Pedal kit and the Stem are good quality and function nicely
.

This kit does as it says on the Box and Bobs Customer Servis is Exceptional....Kinda reminds me of the good old days

Thanks Bob

Excellent product, Top quality manufacturing

Excellent product, top quality!
I hope that the black plastic ring will withstand daily use in all weather conditions (rain, snow, salt...) for a long time.
Every day I take off the pedals and honestly I'm a little afraid of the weather conditions along with the mud.
Thank you very much for your cooperation
Greetings from Zagreb, Croatia, Europe

Thanks, Mlad. You're in good company. We've got some rather rough riders out there, and nobody's broken a Wellgo lock ring yet. But if you ever do . . . we're there for you then too.

Hero of the day!

While riding my bike on a trail near the Flatbike office/warehouse I had a flat tire. After googling bike shops near me I was able to walk my bike to the location where owner Bob was so kind and helpful and was able to get me back on the trail - super nice guy! Also learned a lot about his bikes which seem very innovative and a good value.

Errol, I'm glad we were able to catch this mis-order before it got shipped, and swap out for a more expensive pedal option without your having to go through the whole return & reorder process. Sorry we couldn't ship the new set at a loss, even after your website improvement suggestion. Hopefully after all this, the pedals work well for you.
