 ***  We have UK Exclusive on the new Hub Gear 8 speed Dahon Curve SL ***

The Curve SL does everything you’d expect as the top-of-the-line Dahon commuter bike: it folds in seconds, weighs next to nothing, and folds small enough to fit into a shopping bag. But where it really shines is how well it rides. BioLogic II frame geometry is reassuringly stable. A custom Shimano Nexus 8 Premium hub provides all the gears you’re likely to need on a commute. And custom Schwalbe Marathon Racer tyres are fast, smooth and easy to accelerate. Slip a Curve SL into an El bolso and you’ll be instantly mobile, anytime, anywhere.

• Patented new V-Clamp frame hinge is strong, durable and easy to operate.
• The Kore saddle and post combination is light, comfortable, and offers twice as much fore/aft adjustability.
• MKS QR pedals are precision manufactured in Japan and super easy to operate.
• Dahon Special Edition Schwalbe Marathon Racer tyres are light, fast rolling, and have a layer of Kevlar for puncture resistance.
• Ergon grips are the most comfortable grips on the market.

The model that we supply is fitted with Mudguards, Rear Aluminium Carrier with Elastic, Dahon Rear Light and Stand

 ***  We have UK Exclusive on this Hub Gear 8 speed Dahon Curve SL  ***

The wheel must have been roughly assembled for the picture by Dahon, as the spokes are not even anywhere near tight !! Hence their misaligned and bent appearance !!   We show the picture here only to display the excellent Shimano Nexus 8 Speed Hub gear.

Important Customer Information

For those of you who prefer a more personal service, we are always very happy to discuss the advantages of the various models to help quide you towards a bike that is suitable for your requirements and within your budget.  We have a passion for folding bikes and their place in todays society for both the commuter and leisure cyclist alike. Please ring us if you need help or advice on 01666 822330

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.
