Preowned, Resealed, Mint
British airborne forces made extensive use of folding bicycles during WWII, dropping them alongside troops to provide rapid mobility after landing. The bicycle used was a lightweight folding type with a centre-hinge frame, designed to be carried on the aircraft and deployed immediately on the ground. The 1st and 6th Airborne Divisions employed them during operations including D-Day and Operation Market Garden, where quick movement away from the drop zone was critical.
