Doubleday Foldable Tandem Recumbent
Doubleday Foldable Tandem Recumbent
Bike Fridays are performance bikes with 20” wheels that fold and can fit in specially designed suitcases which transform into trailers to haul your luggage. There are literally dozens of different designs to choose from, whether you want a simple commuting bike, a fast road bike, a fully suspended hybrid, a triplet that can be turned into a tandem, a solo that can be turned into a tandem, a recumbent... They have something for everybody.

But if they know anything about anything, Co-Founders Alan and Hanz Scholz know about tandems. Before founding Green Gear Cycling they used to design and build tandems for Burley. Their Bike Friday Two’sDay is hugely popular with tandem riders who no longer have to worry about transporting large unwieldy frames. Recumbent tandems are even longer so it was only a matter of time before Green Gear produced a folding version, and DoubleDay is their solution.

The folding process is essentially a hybrid of the Sat R Day Recumbent and Two’sDay folds. The folded package is surprisingly small, and with the seats removed it takes up much the same space as a Two’sDay, so it fits most car boots. The basic frame has various options such as front suspension, extra padded seats and independent coasting.

In the US prices for the DoubleDay range from $3,495 through to $5,495 depending on the spec, and it weighs around 52lbs (24kgs).
