  • Stashing behind your seat on the subway.
  • Beating traffic over the Brooklyn Bridge.
  • Vineyard hopping in Napa.

The Mu P8 is one of Dahon’s most versatile, all-around bikes. It’s wonderfully light, fast enough for long weekend rides, and stylish enough to turn heads everywhere you go. Great performance and a good value. Lighter, stronger, and faster are the goals and the Mu P8 delivers on all three.

  • Large volume pump hidden inside the seatpost.
  • Light enough to carry up a flight of stairs, small enough to store behind the couch.
  • Dahon Neos 2.0 derailleur serves up super fast and precise shifts; the low profile design keeps the derailleur protected from damage.
  • Kinetix Comp wheels and Schwalbe Marathon Racer tires are light and fast rolling.
  • Adjustable Radius V Telescope handlepost adjusts to give riders a custom fit.
