The B1 has amazing handling, inspiring confidence at speed combined with low speed climbing stability. This is because it has been developed by prolonged testing in the Cornish lanes which are a notoriously harsh test of any cycle. Cornish riding is also why the B1 has a fantastic gear range for steep climbs and high speed descents. Powerful disc brakes are fitted for consistent and confident braking in difficult situations. The overall impression is of a practical, go anywhere bike that makes you feel like going for a ride!

The B1 is a great bike to ride but it also has the useful ability to quickly fold up into a smaller space - great for fitting into a car or other modes of transport. One of our prototype testers has been taking the B1 to BHPC race meetings by train (which required a complete fold) competing and even winning a number of sports class races.
Which all goes to show that the B1 is not only practical but no slouch where speed is concerned.
