Bought my Montague Pro in 2015. Bike is incredible. I bought a CycleOps attachment for it and now I can ride it in the house whenever I want to!

I’ve owned a Paratrooper Pro since 2016. I bought the bike to go with my new-to-me plane. The bike fits great in the back of the plane, and it is perfect for getting around once I land. I was surprised at how well this bike performs, and its every bit as good as a solid frame bike, but it folds up. It took some practice to get the hang of folding and unfolding quickly, but now its a snap. I’ve added fold-up pedals just to narrow the bike a little more, and I replaced the handlebar grips to a set with more palm support to make the bike more comfortable. Every where I go I get complements.

I bought a second-hand Paratrooper Pro (2016 model) recently from a local Montague (Malaysia) dealer. Everything else except the frame was brand new. The bike was solid, easy to use and handles well. My only wish was that the weight of the bike could be lighter (as compared to my friends’ lighter non-foldable MTB). Overall, it is a good bike that serves my need for easy transport and portability

I’ve had mine since 2013 and can say this is one tough machine that has never let me down. The folding capacity is superb, and it can take the abuse, at 85kg I’m on the heavier side add a child or pack on the rack and we can be 100kg fully loader but the steal frame can take that with ease. The tire set is also well suited for the suburban jungle, just the simple ability to be able to go out when it looks like its going to rain but still share a cab home because you can just fold your bike in seconds and throw it in the trunk of a taxi has saved me many a time. I did upgraded the original spec, adding hydraulic disk brakes and decor sifters, The new breaks are outstanding and probably required given the way I use the bike often in an urban setting where stopping on a dime is some times required. The bike is also on the heavy side this turns hauling it around airports or train stations folded with all your gear a serious strength workout, so you want to avoid having to move it once folded. I would also say the saddle is one of the most comfortable one I have had and well suited for the heavier set rider. Detachable or folding peddles also valuable addon

Excellent bike! I’ve had the Pro since last spring and have tested it on trails across northern New England. The great strength in the frame allows it to cover any terrain. It rides better than my old non-folding mountain bike.

I rode a Paratrooper and a Pro at a shop in the city before buying from them (NYCeWheels in NY). The Pro is definitely the better bike for riding on road. I wanted suspension and wide tires so I could do off-road trails but also something that was a sort of hybrid. I think the fork and especially the tires make this bike pretty good for both. It rolls nicer on pavement than the original Paratrooper. The rack is a really cool feature but I usually take it off if I’m going into the woods (it can come off when you open the wheel quick release).

I bought two Paratrooper Pros to fit in my plane. I wanted something that would be good on rugged terrain but also could ride into towns with smoother roads. The suspension fork with lock-out handles all of it very well. What I didn’t expect was that I love it so much that I use it as an excuse to go mountain biking much more than before. These are world-class bikes!
