Built for fast-paced city life
The Ryden Metro Fold is built for riders who depend on their bike every day: commuting to work, navigating downtown streets, attending university, or running errands across the city. It delivers an efficient, comfortable, dependable ride.
Its hydroformed 6061 aluminium frame combines lightweight construction with durability, and the reinforced quick-fold hinge with a dual-lock safety system ensures rigidity while riding and a fast, secure fold, approximately 10 seconds, the quickest in our folding range. The 20" double-wall alloy wheels handle agilely in traffic while staying stable on longer commutes, and tubeless-ready rims with puncture-resistant tyres reduce maintenance and improve comfort on rough roads.
The Shimano CUES 1x10 drivetrain is built for frequent riders, with smooth shifting, durability, and low maintenance through LinkGlide technology. Hydraulic disc brakes give reliable all-weather stopping, and ergonomic grips, a comfort saddle, and an adjustable handlepost let you tune your fit. Practical commuter features include rack and mudguard mounts, a bottle mount, a kickstand, a bell, and internal cable routing for a clean look.
Folded to 78x37x66 cm, it fits elevators, offices, apartments, public transport, and most vehicle boots.
Where it fits in the Ryden folding range: the Metro Fold is our fast-folding, performance-oriented urban folder, a CUES 10-speed drivetrain, hydraulic brakes, tubeless-ready wheels, and the quickest fold in the range (~10 seconds). It steps up from the Fold Urban (CUES 9-speed) with an extra gear, a marginally lighter build (11.2 vs 11.4 kg), and a more performance-oriented position; and from the entry Fold Lite (Claris 8-speed, mechanical brakes, steel fork) substantially. For maximum portability, the Compact is lighter (10.5 kg) and folds smaller; for touring with an included rack, the Travel is the flagship. Choose the Metro Fold for fast, performance-oriented urban commuting.
