The bracing angle of the spokes changes when a rim is made smaller. When a standard 100 mm hub is laced into a 20″ or 16″ rim, it results in a weaker wheel. To remedy this, DAHON pioneered the compact FrontHub: optimized bracing angles are now stronger than comparable 26″ wheels.
One thing you don’t want on a folding bike is an oversized derailleur that complicates the folding process, leaves little ground clearance and exposes it to damage. The Neos derailleur line, with revolutionary low-profile design, mounts directly to the chain stay and solves these problems. Neos’ ultra-short cage delivers clean, quick and accurate shifting, doubling the amount of ground clearance.
DAHON´s 451 mm wheelset raises the bar on compact wheel performance. Our larger diameter wheels are faster than standard folding bike wheels and lighter than full size wheels. This powerful combination gives a ride that is unparalleled in the folding bike market and bridges the gap between performance road bikes and folding convenience.
Like all good all-in-one helpers, this handy tool kit has everything you need to fix it in a pinch, including 4 and 5 mm hex tools for tightening and adjusting the bolts on your DAHON folding bike. The tool kit is easily accessible in the handlepost stem where it stores conveniently and invisibly – absolutely flat when folded.
