Cool 16" mini velo road bike for adults


 I love Mini velos but I have to agree that this Bruno labeleled bike is just WEIRD! But I love it! This mini road bike uses 16" wheels, same size as Brompton. Combined with a larger size framset, this just looks so much fun. I wonder how the handling is. A mini velo will always have a more nervous handling thanks to the smaller wheels. Smaller wheels leads to a more uncomfortable ride also. Or maybe the ride on this road bike mini velo is like floating on a magic carpet? What do you think?

Cool mini velos from Asia


I learned a new phrase today, it is “Mini-velo”, that is any full size bike with 20 inch tires.
I also learned that in Asia people are running 20” wheels on full size, full suspension hi-end frames such as the Nicolais in the pic above. Why get a Moulton when you can just as well run 20 x 1.95” hookworms on your Yeti 303 lol?

Moulton also makes cool small wheeled full suspension bicycles. If you are interested in a Moulton SST bicycle build check out this Moulton SST build blog.
