Tern Link C8 Folding Hybrid Bike 2022
Delivering Seamless Journeys
The Link family of bikes is designed with a simple goal: getting you where you need to be. The Link folds down small for hassle-free storage and security and offers a stable, comfortable ride. Ride the whole way or pop your Link onto the bus or subway - either way, your Link is fast and friction-free.
The Link C8 brings Tern's core technologies to a bike with an amazing price and even better ride. With unique folding technology, versatile gearing, and comfortable tyres, the C8 is the People’s Choice. It folds fast, and folds small - so that it’s always easy to tuck away or take with you.
Goes Everywhere You Go
The Link folds in 10 seconds, so you can stash it under your desk, bring it with you on public transport, or stow it near your table at the cafe. No more searching for a bike rack, fiddling with locks, and wondering whether your bike will still be there when you get back - the Link goes where you go.
Ready for Extras
The Link comes ready for all the extras that make biking practical and convenient. Got stuff to carry? No problem. All models feature either an integrated rear rack or the ability to add one on, and some models also have a front Luggage Socket. Fenders and integrated lighting are also available.
Smooth City Riding
The Link makes city riding simple, smooth, and enjoyable. Versatile gearing makes easy work of stop-and-go traffic and hills, while small 20" wheels offer maximum maneuverability in crowded areas. A long wheelbase and stiff construction ensure a ride so stable, you'll forget it's a folding bike.
FBL 2 Frame Joint
3 patented technologies and incredibly precise manufacturing make the FBL 2 frame joint one of the best in the business. It's strong, secure, and thanks to integrated bearings, always easy to use.
Physis 3D Handlepost
Five patented technologies and unique manufacturing technology add up to the strongest, stiffest folding handlepost available. The Physis uses a special manufacturing process called 3D forging, which forms the post from a single piece of aluminium, eliminating all welds.
Impac BigPac Tyres
Made by Schwalbe, Impac BigPac tyres are based on the legendary Big Apple tyre design. The large volume design is comfortable on even the worst roads yet still fast rolling.
Magnetix 2.0
The Magnetix 2.0 uses powerful magnets to keep your bike folded for situations like carrying your bike up and down stairs. With a pull force 10-15 Kgf, the Magnetix 2.0 will keep your bike folded even when being jostled and moved about.
Luggage Socket™ - Carry more stuff
Fix the Tern Luggage Truss to the Luggage Socket and you can plug in your choice of front luggage: rack, basket, or bag. If it’s KlickFix compatible, it’ll work.
