Buying a Birdy from Singapore vs buying it from overseas: Exploring the differences

If you’re in the market for a high-performance folding bike, the Birdy stands out as one of the best. 

With its sleek and compact folding design, top-class components, full front and rear suspension, and versatility, it’s no surprise that Birdy bikes have gained a loyal following around the world. 

In Singapore, Mighty Velo is the official regional distributor of Birdy. They also ship their Birdy bikes to many other countries via FedEx. But whether you’re a cyclist in Singapore, or a foldie enthusiast overseas, you may be wondering: why buy a Birdy from Singapore’s Mighty Velo, as opposed to a bike shop in another country?

Here’s three main reasons why you should definitely consider buying your Birdy from Singapore!

1) Every Birdy Bike is Meticulously Hand-Built

Mighty Velo builds every Birdy bike they sell in Singapore from scratch. While Birdy bikes are expertly designed in Germany and manufactured in Taiwan, for those buying a bike through Mighty Velo,  the final touch happens in Singapore. A dedicated team of technicians meticulously assembles each bike by hand, paying attention to every detail to ensure it meets the highest standards of the Birdy brand.

Once assembled, each bike undergoes rigorous quality checks. This hands-on process allows the Singaporean distributor to guarantee that every Birdy bike they sell not only looks fantastic but also performs impeccably, delivering the smooth, reliable ride Birdy bikes are known for.

These Birdy bicycles aren’t impassively churned out from a factory conveyor belt, they’re built with care and passion here upon demand. 

2) An Offering of 18 Frame Colours

Customization is key for self-expression, and Mighty Velo goes the extra mile  to offer customers unparalleled options. They are the only bike distributor in the world offering 18 stylish frame colours for your Birdy bike! You won’t find this variety anywhere else—not even the factory will allow you such a wide range of choices!

This frame colour selection ranges from cool and vibrant hues like Aquamarine to bold and sleek options like Space Black. Plus, some of these colours are applied using Interpon powder coatings—high-grade architectural coatings that are renowned for being colourfast, scratch-resistant, and weather-resistant. These coatings ensure that your Birdy bike doesn’t just look great but also stands up to the elements.

If you want your ride to not only feel good but also look good, or if you’re dissatisfied with the smaller range of colour options overseas, buying a Birdy from Singapore will ensure you get your money’s worth.

3) A Guarantee Of Quality

Unlike the previous two points, this last point mostly only applies to those purchasing a Birdy bike from Singapore locally, rather than ordering it from Singapore to be shipped overseas via FedEx.

When you purchase a Birdy in Singapore from Mighty Velo, you’re getting more than just a bike—you’re getting a guarantee of quality and reliability. As the official regional distributor of Birdy bicycles, they stand by the quality and performance of every bike we sell. Each Birdy bike they sell locally comes with up to a 2-year warranty on the frame and up to a 1-year warranty on components, so you can ride with confidence.

This dedication to quality doesn’t stop there.Mighty Velo believes in supporting customers long after their purchase, and ensuring they get the most out of their bike. That’s why they offer complimentary checks and tune-ups at their store  for up to one year after you buy your Birdy bike. Their after-sales service ensures that your folding bike continues to perform at its peak.

Conclusion

Buying a Birdy from Singapore means investing in a bike that is meticulously hand-built, customizable in an array of beautiful colours, and backed by top-tier warranties and aftercare. With the official regional distributor, Mighty Velo, you don’t just buy a bike—you get the full Birdy experience.
