Back in May 2015, I purchased online an Adventurer 6-speed folding bicycle to use while camping from Camping World.
The bike ride nice, although I had to put on a more comfortable seat. But, I never used it while camping. I couldn't get the blasted thing to fold. And, to make matters worse, I couldn't find the instructions that came with it.
Finally, tonight I got the thing to fold!
There's a discussion thread at a RV forum I belong to on folding bicycles and a fellow forum member posted this in reply to my post on difficulties in getting the bike to fold:
Have you tried, After releasing the fold lever, Raise the lever up, and it will release the catch pin. The guy at CW showed me that. By the time I got to try it, I totally forgot all about it. Then I saw the sticker that showed raise lever. DUH.After reading that, I immediately tried it out and it folded on the first try! Now I can stow it in The Beast and use it!
