Suspension
Front and rear suspension improves control on rough surfaces. It reduces fatigue and keeps the tyres tracking the ground.
Models
Moulton bicycles solve practical problems with engineering. Small wheels reduce rotational mass and help acceleration. Suspension isolates the rider from road shock. Frame systems support long service life.
The model range includes heritage designs and current production bikes. Some focus on compact transport and storage. Others focus on speed, load carrying, or mixed surfaces. Use this page to get the basics fast, then open a model page for detail.

Engineering + Utility
The Moulton Bicycle Club offers events, technical support, classifieds, and a club magazine to assist owners and riders.
Small Wheels
Small wheels reduce rotational mass. They also reduce bike length and help storage and transport.
Frame systems and separability
Some models separate into two halves for transport. The separable joint should not compromise stiffness when assembled.
Load and practicality
Many Moultons support racks and luggage options. The design prioritises stable handling when carrying weight.
