Searching for a lightweight, reliable aluminium trifold bike at a fair price? You’re not alone. Many casual city riders today want the convenience of a folding bike without sacrificing quality or strength. That’s where the all-new TAKACHIA Tiime Series Aluminium Version, A20, comes in.
Meet the world’s first 20-inch seamless weld aluminium trifold bike. It is engineered with cutting-edge materials and smart technology to deliver exceptional performance, durability and efficiency. All in an ultralight 9.5 kg (net) 9-speed external gear trifold bike — TAKACHIA Tiime Series A20.
Is an Aluminium Frame Good for a Bike?
It’s a common question: Is an aluminium frame reliable for long-term use? The answer depends on the design and grade of aluminium used. Not all aluminium frames are built the same.
The TAKACHIA A20 uses premium Series-6 aircraft-grade fortified aluminium alloy, which is significantly stronger than standard grades. Our frame is at least 2.5 times thicker than most lightweight folding bikes. It offers greater strength and output efficiency while still remaining ultra-light. It supports up to 130 kg and delivers a safe, confident ride in any urban setting.
What Are the Benefits of an Aluminium Frame?
Aluminium frames offer a number of advantages for city riders:
✔️High strength-to-weight ratio
✔️Resistance to rust and corrosion
✔️Long-term durability with low maintenance
✔️High efficiency with lesser energy loss
The TAKACHIA A20 brings all these benefits together in one ultra-refined package. It is built to handle your daily commute and weekend adventures alike.

TAKACHIA A20 Reviews From Real Riders
A happy rider, Ted Chu recently shared their experience of ordering the TAKACHIA A20 for international delivery to the USA through our trusted dealer:
“The A20 is a wonderful trifold bicycle. Rides comfortably and it is only 22 lbs with 20" wheels, much lighter than the competitor… I also have other bifold and trifold bicycles but will be looking forward to riding the A20 on my next bike tour!” — Ted Chu
This rider received their bike through our trusted dealer, who ensured fast, safe packing and provided clear updates throughout the delivery process. They even noted how easy it was to communicate from the USA via WhatsApp, despite the 12-hour time difference.
We’re proud to hear that even across continents, the A20 continues to impress—both in performance and support.
