ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The vehicle is more particularly a bicycle which comprises a frame carrying at its rear end a wheel actuated by a pedal mechanism while the front end carries a collar. A brace is pivoted to the frame in the region of the pedal mechanism and so is a saddle post. The front end of the brace also carries a collar, both collars are slideable along an upright stem carrying the handle bars at the upper end and the front wheel of the bicycle at its lower end. A latch releasably holds the frame collar on the lower end of the stem while a cable attached at both ends to the handle bar and to the brace collar and also attached to the brace collar serves to maintain the latter in an intermediate position along the stem, whereby the brace, the front portion of the frame and the lower part of the stem forms a triangle holding the bicycle in erected position. A releasable stay rod pivotally connected to the saddle post and releasably latched to the rear portion of the frame, maintains the saddle in erected position. To collapse the bicycle, it is only necessary to unlatch the lower collar and to pull on the cable to slide both collars upwardly along the stem causing rotation of the stem towards the underside of the frame with the front wheel taking a position overlapping the front wheel. The saddle post is folded over the frame.
