Abstract

A bicycle folding mechanism includes a frame, a stem, and a front fork. The frame includes a front tube at an end thereof. The stem is inserted into the front tube. The stem is connected and pivotal relative to the frame. The stem has an end, which is adjacent to the frame, connected with a connecting seat. The front fork includes at least one connecting end and at least one front end on opposite ends. The at least one connecting end is connected and pivotal relative to the connecting seat such that the front fork is pivotal relative to the connecting seat. The front fork is pivotal between a deployed position in which the at least one front end is positioned away from the frame and a folded position in which the at least one front end is positioned adjacent to the frame.
