Innovative technology and specifications
What makes a Tern unique? The secret lies in patented technologies that ensure safe and perfectly stable riding.
OCL+ Frame Joint
The OCL+ hinge is at the heart of every Tern folding bike. This system far exceeds ISO 4210 and EN 15194 safety standards. Thanks to a single-axis construction and advanced welding techniques, the frame remains rigid and reliable, even at high speeds and under heavy use.
Physis 3D steering column
Where many folding bikes suffer from a flexible cockpit, the Physis 3D stem offers maximum rigidity. It is made from a single piece of 3D-forged aluminum, without any welds, resulting in extremely direct steering precision.
Andros adjustable gallows
With the Andros stem, you can adjust your riding position in seconds, without any tools. From a sporty, low position to a comfortable, upright position for city riding: one bike, multiple ergonomic settings.
DoubleDeck Frame
Models such as the BYB use the DoubleDeck frame design, derived from Tern GSD cargo bikes. This design significantly increases the frame's rigidity and durability, despite the compact folding mechanism.
Discover the collection
The range is divided into specific lines, each with its own character and area of use.
Tern BYB
The BYB is not a conventional folding bike, but a real breakthrough in compactness. Thanks to innovative TriFold technology, the bike folds up to 30% more compact than traditional folding bikes with 20-inch wheels. ..
Use : ideal for multimodal travel (train, bus, or taxi) and for storage in small closets or behind doors.
BYB P8 & S11 : designed for urban commuters; equipped as standard with the Metro Transit Rack, allowing the bike to be rolled along like a suitcase on wheels when folded.
BYB P10 : lighter and sportier, without mudguards or luggage rack, designed for recreational and dynamic use.
What sets the BYB apart are its integrated wheels, which make it easy to maneuver in train stations, and the ability to park the bike upright.
Tern Vektron
The Vektron combines the compactness of a folding bike with the power of Bosch e-bike technology, making it a real alternative to the car in urban areas.
Engine : Bosch Performance Line or Active Line motors, combined with 400 Wh or 500 Wh batteries for extended range.
Stability : the battery is positioned at an angle, lowering the center of gravity and improving road handling.
Functionality : the sturdy Atlas V Rack is compatible with child seats such as the Thule Yepp Maxi or Dash RM, without adapters.
The frame is suitable for cyclists measuring between 147 and 195 cm, making it easy to share the Vektron between several family members.
Tern Verge
The Verge range has been developed for cyclists who prioritize speed, style, and performance.
451 wheels (22 inches) : offer the quick acceleration of smaller wheels, combined with the comfort and speed of larger diameters.
T-Tuned geometry : hydroformed, aerodynamic frame for stable and efficient riding.
The range extends from sporty models such as the Verge D9 and P10 to the easy-to-maintain belt-driven Verge S8i and the high-performance Verge X11.
Tern Link
The Link is the ideal entry-level model for everyday urban use.
Ease of use : folds in less than 10 seconds and is compact enough to fit under a desk.
Comfort : models such as the Link D8 are equipped with wide tires Big Apple tires with Kevlar protection, which act as a natural suspension system.
Magnetix 2.0 : powerful magnets keep the bike securely closed when carrying it, for example up stairs.
Tern Node and Eclipse
For those who prefer the feel of a "big" bike while still being able to fold it, Tern offers the Eclipse (26-inch wheels) and the Node (24-inch wheels). The Eclipse rides like a road bike, while the Node offers the comfort of a Dutch city bike.
Accessories and customization
A Tern is much more than just a bike: it's a modular system. Thanks to the Luggage Socket integrated into the frame, you can easily attach baskets, bags, and racks to the front without affecting steering performance. For the rear, there are many panniers and baskets available, such as the Bucketload Pannier or the Market Basket, many of which are compatible with KLICKfix systems. Whether you're carrying groceries, your laptop bag, or even a passenger, the extensive ecosystem of accessories allows you to tailor your Tern entirely to your needs.
