Di Blasi F7 - Specifications & Review

Company History

Di Blasi is an Italian specialist renowned for folding, ultra-compact two-wheelers that turn constraints—tiny apartments, crowded trains, yacht tender rooms—into design briefs. Founded by Raffaele Di Blasi, the company pioneered cleverly hinged frames and integrated carry handles, allowing owners to collapse a functional minibike into a package that fits car trunks, RV closets, or boat lockers. Unlike many novelty mini-motos, Di Blasi machines focus on everyday usability: reliable starters, practical gearing for short trips, and components chosen for longevity despite frequent folding cycles. The brand serves a diverse clientele: urban commuters who combine riding with public transit, travelers who need a “last mile” solution, and mobility-challenged users who benefit from compact, manageable vehicles. Over the decades, Di Blasi iterated from simple combustion-powered minis to refined variants and, more recently, electric versions that preserve portability while eliminating fumes and warm-up needs. Historically, the company stands out as a champion of modular mobility—recognizing early that the future would not be won by one vehicle type but by flexible combinations. Its products also embody Italian design values: elegant problem-solving, tactile mechanisms, and a certain playfulness that makes ownership delightful. For many, a Di Blasi is the most-used “motorcycle” they own, not because it’s fast, but because it’s always the right tool for a short, practical journey. In a world rethinking space and movement, Di Blasi’s folding ingenuity feels more relevant than ever.
