If your ride to work is less about sunny skies and smooth tarmac, and more about rain, grit and potholed roads, then you’ll need to take a look at the Cadenza 8. It’s custom-built for urban riding with Schwalbe’s legendary ’Big Apple’ tyres and the smoothest shifting drivetrain on the planet the Shimano Alfine. The 7005 aluminum frame is burly and stiff and even up close you can barely tell that it folds. But fold it does, in less than 30 seconds when you need to stash it in your hallway closet or take it on the bus

- Looks and rides just like a non-folding bike, but folds for easy transport and storage.
- The Shimano Alfine hub has eight gears and incredibly smooth shifting and because it’s a hub gear, it’s super low maintenance.
- Dahon’s latest folding technology, the LockJaw hinge is almost invisible,- you have to look hard to even know that the bike folds.
- Big Apple tyres roll as smooth as silk, but give a soft ride as well.
- Dahon F.I.T. stem offers 50 mm of adjustment for a custom riding position.

All Folding Bikes are thoroughly prepared and checked in the workshop in order to validate the warranties, this involves a thorough setup and adjustment of spokes, bearings, brakes, gears (stops and cable adjustment). The chainset and crank, handlebars and all nuts and bolts are checked for tightness and the pedals fitted. Finally the tyre pressures are set and the folding joints and all quick releases are lubricated and adjusted. After a brief test ride (mainly indoor) they are then carefully packed back into the original boxes using appropriate packaging, this means that the bikes when received and unfolded are ‘ready to ride’ . All 26” wheel Dahon bikes arrive in the UK in boxes with the frame unfolded but the bike partially dismantled. We have taken the decision that in order to properly achieve our highest aim and that of the responsible manufacturers with whom we liase, that we therefore, properly prepare then fold the completed bike with only the handlebar removed, it is therefore necessary for us to repackage the bike accordingly on account of it’s larger size when assembled.
