Military bicycles for advanced mobility

	AIR DROP GROUND MOBILITY The Paratrooper Tactical Mountain Bike was designed as ground mobility for the paratrooper. It is a sturdy, durable full size Mountain Bike, designed to fold so the bike can be dropped on a static line. Once on the ground the bike is unfolded and serves as effective, efficient and stealthy ground transportation, allowing easy evacuation upon completion of a mission.

	LAV / RECONNAISSANCE SCOUT Using the Paratrooper Tactical Mountain Bike in conjunction with LAR's, allows the company increased mobility and security. The Paratrooper Reconnaissance model folds so you can attach it to the side of vehicle and serves as back- up transportation. The Paratrooper is a stealthy recon/scout vehicle able to travel with little to no thermal and acoustic signatures.

ALTERNATIVE TO FOOT SOLDIER
The Paratrooper Tactical Mountain Bike offers the most efficient form of human powered transportation available. Men on mountain bikes have off-body load bearing, can traverse any terrain, move at high speeds without breakdown, and can refuel themselves with local water and food. It is also a great moral builder - the guys really enjoy traveling around on a bike rather than on foot.

Montague Folding Integrated Technology (F.I.T)

Patented Technology: Out patented seat tube folding system preserves the structural integrity and inherent strength of traditional bicycle geometry. Unlike all other folding bikes, there are no wobbly hinges and no structural tubes cut in half.

Quick Releases: No tools are needed to fold and unfold the Paratrooper. Just open one quick release lever on the top tube and remove the front wheel. Folds in under thirty seconds without tools.

Safety Lock: Recessed drop out for quick release prevents frame from folding even with quick release not tightened.
