Thornton Bikes is a foldable bicycle store at Queensway Shopping Centre in Singapore, operating as an Authorised Dealer for Java and Jimove, and selling its own Thornton-branded bikes alongside 3Sixty and Crius models. The store specialises in trifold and bifold foldable bicycles aimed at urban commuters and weekend riders, with a focus on high-specification bikes at accessible prices.
The Java Neo Collection ranges from the $630 16" Neo 3 Aluminium up to the $1,500 20" Neo J-Air Carbon, while the in-house Thornton Collection spans the $550 20" Thornton Comet bifold through to the $1,250 20" Thornton Astro trifold. As an Authorised Dealer, Thornton sources Java bikes directly from the factory, cutting out middleman costs. Every bike purchase includes a one-year frame warranty and access to genuine spare parts, with an optional $50 Thornton Care Package adding two annual maintenance services (worth $136) and five years of unlimited tuning and adjustments (excluding EDS models).
Thornton Bikes has been recognised as the Best Foldable Bicycle Store in Singapore for two consecutive years (2023 and 2024), and holds over 500 Google reviews with a 5.0-star rating as of May 2026. The store also sells bicycle accessories (helmets, gloves, lights, locks, and more) at 20% off when bought alongside a bike, and runs a dedicated Thornton Care service centre next to the main store for ongoing maintenance.
Thornton Bikes has grown from a neighbourhood bicycle shop into an Authorised Dealer for Java and Jimove, based at Queensway Shopping Centre in Singapore. The store's pitch is straightforward: high-specification foldable bicycles at accessible prices, without the traditional markup that comes with premium bike brands.
Thornton's collection spans trifold and bifold foldable bikes across four brands — Thornton, Java, 3Sixty and Crius. The headline release is the Java Neo Collection, described as combining Italian design with performance. Prices (effective 1 July 2026) start at $630 for the 16" Neo 3 Aluminium and run up to $1,500 for the 20" Neo J-Air Carbon, with carbon fork and EDS 12 variants in between. Because Thornton sources Java bikes directly from the factory as an Authorised Dealer, it's able to cut out middleman costs and pass the savings on to customers.
Alongside Java, Thornton runs its own in-house range. The 16" Trifolds include the Cielo ($750), Seira ($1,150) and Zen ($1,150), while the 20" Trifolds cover the Orbit ($850) and Astro ($1,250). For riders wanting a faster fold-unfold on bigger wheels, the 20" Thornton Comet Bifold is priced at $550 — the most affordable model in the collection.
Thornton's FAQ page offers some genuinely useful buying guidance. Trifolds fold down smaller and are easier to carry and store, suited to recreational riders or anyone tossing a bike into a car boot or onto the MRT; bifolds fold and unfold faster, ride quicker on bigger wheels, and tend to be cheaper — better suited to daily commuters. On frame material, chromoly steel offers a more comfortable, flexible ride and is easier to repair long-term but is heavier and can rust, while aluminium is lighter, stiffer and corrosion-resistant but more prone to fatigue under stress. On gearing, 3 gears suit simple city rides, 6-7 gears handle moderate hills and longer distances, and 9+ gears are aimed at climbing and carrying loads with less effort.
Every Thornton Bikes purchase comes with a one-year frame warranty against manufacturing defects and ongoing access to genuine spare parts. Customers can add the Thornton Care Package for $50, which bundles two annual maintenance services (worth $136) with five years of unlimited tuning and adjustments (excluding EDS models). A standalone yearly maintenance service is also available for $68 at the Thornton Care service centre, located next to the main store. Bicycle accessories — helmets, gloves, lights, locks, bells, water bottle holders and more — are sold at 20% off when purchased alongside a bike in-store.
Thornton Bikes has been named the Best Foldable Bicycle Store in Singapore for two consecutive years, 2023 and 2024, and holds over 500 Google reviews with a 5.0-star rating as of May 2026. One reviewer, Jeff Ang, specifically credited staff member Roger and the in-house mechanic for a thorough, unhurried bike collection experience.
