Speed P8 Review
"Dahon's 27 years of experience making folders shone through in the workmanship and overall performance of this reasonably-priced commuting rig. Based on my three-day session in Sin City, I feel that the Speed P8 offers big value in a small package."

Mµ SL Review
"There's lots to love about the nine-speed Dahon Mu SL: It unfolds by unsnapping three clips—no operation manual required."

Mµ Uno Review
"The mission statement for the Uno: a bike that is durable enough to ride every day, in all weather, with a single gear suitable for fast riding and light enough to easily carry up and down the stairs in train stations. For the most part, they’ve accomplished that mission."

Mµ P8 Review
"... the nippy and responsive frame is complemented by the tyres, wheels and saddle, which together provide a good level of smoothness and ride quality. The bike rolls quite freely, making it appear easy to press on and encouraging a pro-active, even assertive style (essential for survival in London!). I find myself humming a tune and smiling at other road users a good proportion of the time."

Mµ EX Review
"A pleasure to ride, the bike is responsive, fast, and performs. Best part is it climbs . . . for real."

Cadenza Solo Review
"Unfolding it is just as quick and when the Cadenza is back together the close tolerances of Dahon's Lockjaw hinge means it all feels very stiff – it's quite hard to spot the actual join."

Jack Review
"The Dahon Jack 26 in-wheeled folder is a solid urban and trail runabout with a nice clean feel to it. Most notably though, it's that rarity, a larger-wheeled folder. This means handling stability is preserved – an important point for those who shy away from smaller wheeled folders because of their more sensitive ride qualities."

Jack Electric Bike Conversion Review
"The Jack itself is a lovely bike for cross town jaunts, dropping off kerbs and soaking up potholes with its Schwalbe Big Apple tyres. If you don’t need the motor or run out of power it’s still a great bike to ride with that free running motor."

Cadenza 8 Review
"Overall, I very much liked the Cadenza. Given the component package quality, the Alfine hub and the very versatile frame, the price at £579 seems more than reasonable, if not a bargain... So all in all, I’d say Dahon are onto another winner."
