The Verge X20 from Tern Bicycles is a folding bike designed for people who just like to go fast.

It's a portable 20in steed and it weighs just 9.9kg. It's compact enough to fit under your desk too, thanks to N-Fold Technology. This includes new frame and handlepost geometries that result in a shorter package that can be folded in less than 10 seconds. Find out more in the video below:
