PORTLANDFOLDINGBIKES.NET

Portland Oregon's focal point for Montague, Paratrooper and Swissbike folding bikes.

 

If you were referred here by our craigslist ad, feel free to call the number or send an email to the contact info that you were already given. Otherwise, pleas use portlandfoldingbikes@yahoo.com as a contact address.   Call (503) 680-7953.

Our prices include delivery to your location, initial setup, adjustments, and an orientation with the rider at the time of the delivery. These services are not included on bikes shipped outside the area, but we will be glad to offer assistance by phone.  All you really need to properly unpack and assemble and tune the bike is a set of metric allen wrenches, the open end wrench included with the bike, and a Leatherman or similar tool.  Once the bike is set up, it can be broken down and folded easily for transport and reassembly will not require tools.   Several people have videos of this process posted at youtube.com, just do a search for "montague bikes" and watch any one of the several videos to see the process.   Swissbike Intro Video Partrooper Folding Demo

 

Local calls (503) 680-7953  Cash, paypal, direct credit and debit cards and business checks OK. Most orders ship within 24 hours, Local deliveries can go faster than that as they come out of local inventory.

You can get more factory specification information by clicking the links below the pictures.  The links take you to the Montague/Swissbike factory websites.

We have recently added a paypal checkout feature for people who want to use paypal checkout, note, however, you do not need a paypal account to place an order. You may also call (503) 680-7953 and place your order by phone.  While we try to keep most bikes in stock most of the time, some models are not always available all of the time.   If you have any questions or want to confirm inventory, don't hesitate to call or email.   There are no added shipping costs or sales tax for most orders.

A note from the owner:  As a former servicemember, I strive to offer the best possible service and military discounts.   When I ran savvysurvivor.com I regularly expedited orders to deployed troops in Europe, Iraq and Afghanistan.   Recent changes and weight limits in APO/FPO handling of the large bike packages have been making it difficult recently to get the bikes through.   If you are in the military and thinking about getting one of these bikes for deployment, they are worth it and hold up well in the desert environment.   My best suggestion is to order it while you are home on leave and it will be shipped by fedex ground to your stateside address at no extra charge.

Swissbikes

TX on and off road 21 speed mountain bike

$675

Swissbike TX Mountain 18" Frame Bike

 

Swissbike TX Mountain 20" Frame Bike

A good all around bike with an alternate set of features compared to the Montague MX and Paratrooper. Uses a dual tube alloy frame like the DX, but ads several off road and performance features like front suspension, front disc brakes, and off road tires. This makes a good all around bike for the general purpose user. The twin tube frame will mount more conventional accessories than the signature fat monotube frames used on other Swissbike and Montague bikes.

NEWS!

The last of the 2009 models are now sold out and we are fully into the 2010 models, with the new specifications listed to the right.   The big difference now is that all Paratroopers now come with an improved dual disk brake system, no more rim grabber brakes.   This can cause issues with electric drive installation and if you are looking to have an electric drive Montague mountain bike, I highly suggest going with the MX which has most of the features of the earlier Paratroopers, but comes with rim grabber brakes which are compatible with most electric drive assist systems.

The factory carrying case is NOT a heavy duty military item, but it is made from water resistant nylon and comes with a carry strap that attaches directly to your bike.  It is good for keeping your bike clean and seperated from things that might snag on it when stored or carried in a vehicle.   The carrying case folds up into a pretty small package when not in use.   $95

 

Shipping policies:

Shipping by UPS, Personal Delivery, or Fedex Ground is included in the price of these bikes in the Western States.   Other parts of the Continental US will be billed no more than $25 extra for shipping.   Personal delivery includes unpacking, assembly and installation of accessories at the buyer's option.    Returns for exchange only, it is our option to replace or repair warranty items (we usually just replace them).  The postal service is getting resistant to shipping these bikes to APO/FPO addresses, but sometimes small town and base post offices are pretty helpful with this.   I used to ship these from a veteran run post office in Coquille Oregon and sometimes Coos Bay where nobody bitched about the packages being a little bit overweight or dimension when going to an APO/FPO, but here in Portland, well, they are not so cooperative and I think maybe not so sympathetic to getting stuff like this to the troops on deployment.   The best I can do at this point is no additional shipping charges to ship these to any US base that is serviced by Fedex.   I am told this change was brought about at the insistence of some postal inspector supervisors in Portland, but I also had some serious mail interference in Eugene Oregon also.   Given the theft of several mail items I suffered from Portland and Eugene in the last five years, they obviously have theor priorities warped, but that's federal law enforcement for you.   Likewise, I can no longer accept cash payment for merchandise by mail as even the registered mail became unreliable for that.

2010 upgrades are in.   I am still listing some 2009 bikes because I still have some in stock and will be turning them over at 2009 prices.   Montague/Swissbike have come out with a lot of new bikes for 2010 and while I can order them, I am not currently planning on keeping much more than the Paratrooer in stock.   I can get the other models here in very short notice since the main west coast Montague warehouse is pretty close by.   Local Portland area purchases include hand delivery, initial assembly, adjustments and (if you want it) packaging disposal.  

Demo Bikes:  I have three Demo bikes on hand here in Portland which can be sold at lower prices, but these are already assembled and adjusted and will NOT be shipped.  They are for local sale only and the warranty will still apply.
