Dahon MU D10 Review

This lightweight Dahon folder is an excellent multi-use bicycle. Wide ratio gearing allows it to climb hills and still have a top gear that you probably will not spin out on flat ground. Extremely adjustable riding positions allow riders less than 5’ tall to riders 6’3” to efficiently ride this bike. The high pressure (100 psi) wide tires are very fast when at full pressure for pavement but also work well on gravel or rails to trails rides by dropping the pressure some.

Folding bikes are awesome town bikes, Ride this anywhere and if you get caught in the rain you won’t need a Van or Car rack to get home. Folding this bike takes less than 30 seconds and allows you to put the bike in almost any car trunk or back seat. This bike is excellent for multi-modal travel, part way by bus or subway part way by bike. Suggested list price $799.

7 speed and three speed folding bikes will not have near the range of gearing of this 10 speed bike. The 11 to 32 tooth cassette matched to the 53 tooth crank will allow you to always ride in an efficient comfortable gear. My issue with most 7 speed bikes is they do not have a high enough top gear to comfortably ride on flat pavement if you are an avid rider.

This bike will come as packed by the factory. It will probably need a little brake and or derailleur adjustment and the pedals installed.
