The Tern Node D8 features a robust and lightweight aluminium frame, which folds down in seconds for easy storage while being easy to carry onto public transport or into your workplace. It's equipped with a Shimano 8-Speed groupset and powerful V-Brakes, giving you an efficient gear rage for riding anywhere and dependable all-weather braking power. Also, this urban explorer is kitted out with fenders, a rear pannier rack, a kickstand and a bell. Ideal for commuting, inner-city errands and weekend countryside adventures.
Comfortable, Dependable and Fast Folding City Bike:
The Node D8 is the workhorse of Tern's Around-Town bike family. With big wheels, comfortable tyres, and swept-back handlebars, it’s as comfortable and solid as a Dutch city-bike, but it folds down small—in 10 seconds flat.
OCL+ Frame Joint Folding Design:
A heavy-duty update to Tern's iconic OCL frame hinge, the OCL+ is built to exceed ISO 4210 and EN 15194 testing requirements. Leveraging the hinge design of the long-tail Tern Cargo Node, the OCL+ features a single-shaft design, advanced welding techniques, and robust gussets, so it stays stiff and strong during even the fastest commutes.
Physis 3D Adjustable 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.
Adjustable and Versatile Andros Stem:
The Andros is Tern's patented adjustable stem that lets you set your handlebars where you want—no tools, no fuss. In just seconds, you can set your riding position to long and low in a tough headwind, or upright and comfy for riding around town. You decide how you want to ride, and the Andros makes your bike fit.
