DAHON folding bikes are available in the US, Canada, and over 30 other countries.

If you’re unable to locate an authorized dealer near you, feel free to send us an email, and we’ll be happy to assist you

in finding one. Alternatively, you can visit your local bicycle store and ask about DAHON bikes. If they don’t stock our

models, they can contact us or the national distributor to place an order. Please note that not all DAHON folding bike

models are available in every country.

Our corporate mission is promoting the growth of clean transportation. To support this goal, we price our bicycles

within reach of the average consumer. “High-end” models for the cycling enthusiast, boasting state-of-the-art

components and material technology, are priced accordingly. Prices and specifications may vary with the region.

If you have an issue with the frame or another component that isn’t stocked by your dealer, please email

service@dahon.com, and we’ll assist you further.

Optimizing the weight of our bikes through state-of-the-art technology is our on-going goal. Today, our lightweight

models are made of carbon, titanium, magnesium, and patented aluminium alloys – the lightest weighing only 19.4

lbs (8.8 kg).

DAHON folding bikes are among the most compact in every class (16″, 20″, 26″), folding into neat, easy-to-store and

transport rectangles with no protruding parts. A DAHON folding bike 16″ reduces to the size of a shopping bag and

fits under a bus seat or in an airline luggage bin; two 16″ and two 20″ folders fit side-by-side in the trunk of most

midsize cars. Dahon 26″ models are the most compact of their class.

All our frames and folding components are built in our own ISO 9001 certified factories, and all our bicycles exceed

the rigorous U.S. and European strength and safety standards, as well those of Japan, Germany, the UK and France.

All our engineering designs are rigorously tested and re-tested in our own laboratories. DAHON DoubleLok

technology makes our latches and locks virtually fail-safe.

Relatively speaking, no. A small wheel has slightly higher rolling resistance than a larger wheel, but this is only one aspect

of “speed.” Small wheels offer several performance advantages: they accelerate faster due to a lower moment of inertia,

are more aerodynamic, and lighter. In fact, the world speed record for a bike ridden in an upright position was set on a

bike with 18″ wheels. With DAHON's latest "D-VELO" technology, our small-wheeled bikes are now even faster than

many larger-wheeled models, redefining performance and efficiency in compact cycling.

DAHON’s unique gear engineering uses oversized chain rings and/or smaller rear cogs to give you the feel of riding a

full-size bike – you don’t have to pedal any harder or faster.

Yes. Our compact bikes (16″ and 20″ wheel sizes) feature DAHON frame geometry and deliver superb riding comfort

and efficiency. Most of our small-wheeled bicycles feature telescoping stems and long seat posts, which can be

adjusted to deliver a perfect fit for riders of all sizes. Our full-size bikes all feature standard frame geometry, so you

won’t even notice you’re riding a folder.

DAHON is the world’s leading manufacturer of folding bikes – and has been for over 40 years. What’s more, 95% + of

all folding bikes on the market today rely on DAHON’s pioneering technology.

Folding bicycles can go anywhere you go. Whether you ride the entire way or go part of the way by bus, train, car,

boat or plane, your DAHON folding bicycle goes with you. Due to its compactness, your DAHON folding bike can

easily be stored indoors, safe against potential theft or vandalism.

A folder is a bicycle that, in addition to all the quality features you expect from a regular bicycle, folds for convenient

storage and portability. A good folder will give you all these in excellent riding quality – but, even more, will weigh

less than 10 kg (22 lbs) and, in seconds, fold small enough to take on a bus or train, or fit under the stairs.
