At the very end – there is a table which has all the details about the specifications and features of the bike. You can directly scroll down to the table to know the parts and their respective size – which are used in Euromini Campo.
The strength and the weight of a bike is very important – when you hit the roads on it. Euromini Campo is an excellent example of a lightweight bike with all the strength that you need for a perfect ride. It definitely outweighs Euromini Zizzo Via and Euromini Zizzo Urbano in terms of ease of transportation.
Light weight
Euromini Campo 2019 weighs 28 lbs – which makes it one of the lightest folding bike on Earth. Lighter the bike – better the paddling and lesser the force required to propel it forward.
As Euromini Campo is a very lightweight bike – accelerating it becomes very easy. And because of its low weight – the bike becomes an option for a large age group of buyers. It becomes a convenient bike for adults, kids and even for old age riders.
Secondly you can ride a Euromini Campo even if air resistance is high because of its low lbs. This opens up a lot of terrains for you – like mountains and beach sides where drag becomes an issue.
Camping is a preferred recreational event for you – with a Euromini Campo. And we believe – this is why “Campo” is the tag name given by Zizzo Bikes to this product.
Build quality
Euromini Campo 2019 is a stable and easier to balance bike for you. The reason for its high stability is low center of gravity. All the bulky parts remain very close to the ground making it firmly grounded. Only the stem and handles rise up to you.
Euromini Campo is built using 20″ 6160 Aluminum Alloy frame and the forks are made up of steel. Lightweight metals like Aluminum and Steel decreases the weight of the bike while increasing its strength.
Tires and Derailleur
Another reason for its stability is Euromini’s Tires. The bike features Wanda 20 x 2.0″ off road wide tires which provide comfort and traction for both road and trail riding.
The 7-speed cassette and chain with the Derailleur is a welcome feature in this low cost bike. It makes up ward movement very easy. So if you are using your bike mostly in hilly terrains and mountain roads then the 7-speed cassette and Derailleur will help you climb like an oxen.
The Derailleur is attached with the frame of the bike – so that it receives minimum to no compression and jerks. Even the 7-speed cassette and chain are Rust Resistant Coated. The rust coating and other features are not included in Euromini Zizzo Via and Euromini Zizzo Urbano.
Speed Shifter and V Brakes
Euromini Campo 2019 comes with Shimano 7-speed grip shifter. The shifter again impacts the movement of the bike – making changing gears and speed alterations smooth. The shifter is integrated to the handlebar.
And lastly the bike is fitted with Aluminum Alloy V-Brakes. We tested the brakes in our garage and they were real powerful. The brakes provide you with the stopping power you need in sudden situations.
The handlebar can also be rotated to best adjust to your hand position while riding.
The seat post height can be adjusted to provide you with your most comfortable riding position.
Euromini Campo 2019 is available in three colors – Yellow, Black, and White. Black is the most preferred color by both the genders for this particular model.
Flexibility
Modern day commuting demands the modes of travel to be very portable. The second most important feature after transportation – is how flexible the bike is.
Today multi-modal commuting is inevitable. You need to change a lot many modes of travel before reaching your destination – and Euromini Zizzo serves the need.
Easy Folding Mechanism
You can fold and unfold a Euromini Campo – in less than 30 seconds! The mechanism of its fold is super easy. Below are the steps to fold a Campo.
Campo 2019 comes with easy single folding aluminum alloy stem. You just have to insert the stem in the post to unfold the bike or remove it from the post to fold it.
Once this done – you can further adjust the seat height. When folded – ground the seat to its very low. The lowered seat post is as tripod with the two wheels to keep the bike stable in the upright position.
The bike has adjustable Alloy clamps to secure the seat post, handlebar post height, and handlebar brake lever orientation when you fold or unfold it.
The Campo 2019 folds down into the following dimensions: (H-27″ L-31″ W-12.5). This compact size makes the Euromini an ideal commuter bike. It definitely surpasses Euromini Zizzo Via and Euromini Zizzo Urbano in terms of folding mechanism.
Storage and Security
The third and fourth aspect to look before you buy yourself a bike – is it’s storage and security.
Parking problems are on a rise. And parking your bike on the streets is not the safest of the options. The best thing about Euromini Campo is that you don’t need to park it at all.
You can store the folded Campo under your work table, beside your theater seat, and even hang it on your home wall! Ride it around the campground, pack it up in the RV, or take it out for a spirited recreation ride.
Generally you will find bike parking stations in front of most of the commercial buildings in US. But the real deal is to find a place there – even if you are working in the building itself. For this you can carry your folded Euromini Zizzo bike right up to your cabin and under your desk.
And paying for parking tickets is always a burden on your pockets. Although you will find many places where parking a bike does not cost – but not in all the places.
In some states and in some particular places (parks and theaters) – you need to buy a parking ticket costing from a dollar to 5 dollars! Zizzo Bikes and especially the Euromini can save you a lot of dollars because you can fold and carry it.
And read this post – by The Telegraph – reporting parking problems in US’s neighbor country. “According to research conducted by BPA the average time motorists spend looking for a space is 5.9 mins, adding up to a total of 90.5 hours – or four days – spent searching for a parking spot over the year.” So here a Euromini Campo 2019 will definitely be a time saver.
Security and Safety
As the bikes are getting more and more popular – they are attracting a lot many eyes. Bike thieves find it very easy to rob you off your bike specially when you have left it parked.
Unlocking a bike from a parking station is not a very difficult job. And because bikes today are very less in weight – even carrying them is not a big difficulty.
Secondly the bike is also secured from easy crack ups. The frame and stem locks has a “vice grip” locking mechanism. This allows you to forcefully lock the bike up. More the force on the folding hinge the tighter it is locked with a secondary safety lock that snaps in place to prevent any accidental unlocking while riding.
For all these reasons – the best place to put your commodity is alongside you. And Euromini Campo is a perfect model. You don’t need to park it – and carrying along the bike is pretty convenient.
Cost of the Euromini Campo
The low cost of Zizzo Bikes along with quality materials – makes them the most sought out product in the market. Zizzo Bikes pricing policy has really surprised some big bike manufacturers.
A bike with all the installations that the Campo has – will easily cost around 500 to 600 dollars. Giving the same product for half the price – along with quality engineering – is a tough job! And honestly Zizzo Bikes are doing a good work out there. Even Euromini Zizzo Via and Euromini Zizzo Urbano are very low cost high durable bikes.
Is Euromini Campo worth the dollars?
If you are searching for one of the best folding bikes under $500 then we highly doubt that you will get anything better than Euromini Zizzo Campo. It’s affordable, the manufacturer is reputed and the bike has all quality parts.
