Dahon Matrix 2008

The all-new Matrix is a versatile bike that will take on anything you throw at it. Drop it down on the nastiest potholed roads (keep the tyres hard though ! ) and the hydraulically-damped fork smooths everything out. On tarmac, lock out the fork and you can hammer away efficiently. Slap some knobbies on and you can even take the Matrix off-road. For 2008, Dahon have given the Matrix a brand new frame featuring LockJaw folding hinges: when locked down, the hinges are incredibly strong but virtually invisible so nobody will even know you’re on a folding bike.

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.
