ALPS Triple-Fold E-Bike - Built for the City
Reinventing the Folding E-Bike: Strength, Precision, and Freedom
When we set out to design our latest three-fold electric bicycle, our goal was simple: build a bike that balances lightweight agility, structural strength, and long-term durability—all without compromising ride comfort or ease of use. The result is a folding e-bike engineered to meet and exceed international standards in the U.S., EU, Japan, Korea, and beyond.

Aerospace-Grade Aluminum Alloy Frame
The bike’s frame is crafted using a blend of 6069 and 6061 aluminum alloys, materials trusted in aerospace and high-performance applications. Through T4 and T6 heat treatments, the frame achieves the perfect synergy of strength and lightness.
- T4 Treatment: Ensures excellent ductility and flexibility during manufacturing.
- T6 Treatment: Enhances hardness and tensile strength, locking in durability.
The result? A frame that resists deformation even under long-term use and rebounds to its original shape after accidental impacts—so your bike feels as solid on day 1,000 as it does on day 1.

Smart Battery Housing: Secure, Silent, Seamless
We engineered the battery casing with precision down to the smallest detail: arc curvature, connector angles, full arc length, and octagonal tail symmetry. This attention to geometry guarantees that every insertion and removal is smooth—never too tight, never loose.
- Silent Ride: No rattling or vibration noise during cycling.
- Durability: Tailored fit ensures long service life and consistent performance.
- Safety: The casing design improves waterproofing and impact resistance, reducing the risk of short-circuit or battery damage.
Our custom dual-layer battery protection board further enhances safety, delivering compact size, high output, and extended mileage.

The Folding Masterpiece: Triple-Fold System with Precision Guide Mechanism
Unlike conventional two-fold bikes, our three-fold design introduces a guiding mechanism to maintain perfect chain tension throughout folding and unfolding.
The mechanism is a small engineering marvel—featuring dual chain arms, an A-arm, a B-seat, stainless-steel pins, sliding sleeves, spring tensioners, and a set of carefully calculated washers. Together, they ensure that chain length and pitch remain constant, preventing derailment during folding.
- Consistent Shifting: Chain stays aligned across gears.
- Smooth Folding: No snags, no adjustments needed.
- Reliability: Resistant to wear, with excellent weather endurance.
The bearing-based pivot joints allow the rear triangle to fold clockwise, while the seat tube’s telescopic action locks everything seamlessly in place. The front triangle uses a screw-lock folding joint and a hook system to secure the fork and stays, so the folded bike can be pulled or pushed effortlessly like luggage.

Engineering Every Detail for Longevity
-
Head Tube & Triangles
- Shaped tubing with reinforced ends and an added front rack mount.
- Dual bottom brackets (large & small) connected via a precision square tube for symmetry and ±0.02 mm accuracy.
-
Internal Cable Routing
- First of its kind on a folding bike.
- Brake and gear cables extend and retract smoothly during folding, then return automatically to position.
-
Multi-Function Seatpost Clamp
- Height adjustable for all riders.
- Integrates hooks, springs, and quick-release parts for folding/unfolding the rear triangle.
-
Shock-Absorbing Block
- Dual-material design (reinforced plastic + PTFE) reduces noise, vibration, and wear between folding joints.
-
Rear Triangle Connector
- Complex but elegant geometry that unites strength, function, and durability.
- Includes a tow-roller rod with bearings so the folded bike can roll with you.
-
Reinforced Folding Lock
- Unique tongue-and-groove welding ensures single-pass welding with greater strength.
- British-thread screws reduce friction, save effort, and improve durability.


Intelligent Powertrain & Riding Modes
- Front-Wheel Motor: Stable handling, and when powered off, it adds zero rolling resistance.
- Mechanical Rear Derailleur: Ensures a lightweight ride even without electric assist.
-
Three Riding Modes:
- Pure Electric
- Pedal-Assist (5 adjustable torque-sensor levels)
- Manual Cycling
The torque sensor precisely measures pedaling force, delivering smooth and natural power output that balances comfort with extended range.

Built for Everyday Life, Everywhere
This folding e-bike isn’t just a product—it’s a solution. It’s compact, portable, and versatile, designed for commuters, travelers, and urban explorers alike. Whether you’re navigating city streets, hopping on a train, or storing it in a small apartment, it adapts to your lifestyle with ease.
And with its advanced materials, meticulous engineering, and silent performance, it delivers a premium riding experience that rivals (and outlasts) the competition.
Conclusion
By combining aerospace-grade alloys, precision mechanics, intelligent electronics, and rider-centric design, we’ve created a folding e-bike that stands at the intersection of innovation, durability, and convenience.
This isn’t just a bike. It’s a statement: Ride smarter. Fold smaller. Go further.
