Citizen Bike is a manufacturer of folding bicycles, based on a philosophy of affordability.[1] Its line of low-cost bicycles are shipped directly to customers and do not require any assembly.[2] These bicycles fold to a size comparable to other brands but are generally heavier.[3][4]

The compact size of Citizen folding bikes makes them well suited for urban commuting,[5] and they are airplane friendly when packed in an optional carrying bag.[6] An early limited edition model called MTA MetroBike, outfitted with reflective Metropolitan Transportation Authority route symbols,[7] was showcased by the MTA as a train and bus-friendly bicycle.[5][8][9]

The company offers a namesake mobile app to help map rides and count calories.[10]
