DO YOU TILT?You have chosen the Btwin Tilt folding bike and we thank you for your custom. At Btwin, we have put all our expertise and enthusiasm into the design of your bike.
Tilt is the result of a dream that was thought up by a small team of enthusiasts. We have met and listened to numerous cyclists throughout the whole world and tested dozens of bikes in order to redefine the way in which we think about urban mobility. As a result we were able to design a range of bikes that belong to a brand new style, so that you can enjoy fun and fast journeys. Imagine: switch from cyclist to pedestrian in 1 second flat!
Btwin Tilts are genuinely versatile urban bikes that run as smoothly as «big» bikes and, before you know it, you feel totally at home using one.
The Tilt range incorporates an ultra-fast folding system, that is unique around the world, thanks to its frame and stem hinges that we call «Pop Up» (patented), some incredibly simple adjustment systems such as our «EasyClamp» seatpost adjustment system that is also patented, the «Light’In» lighting built into the frame, a clean «Cleanride» drive train thanks to the exclusive shape of our frame as well as a belt drive on the Tilt 7 and 9. Lastly, you only have to carry it when absolutely necessary as your bike is designed for rolling folded up like a suitcase. This is the «Fold ‘N’ Roll» frame geometry.
Small is beautiful
Tilt is the realisation of a process that brings together enthusiasm, demanding standards and technical prowess. This is a concept that breaks with the past...
Indeed, the development of the Tilt is unique with bold design features like its taut lines and is amusing frame architecture influenced by the pinball machines of our teenage years. Without doing away with the basics, we wanted to reinvent the way we think about folding bikes in order to make a good-looking, thoroughly modern bike that will help you be ever more mobile.
Check out the Tilt for yourself...
