Dahon Cadenza 8 bike review

Dahon produced the Cadenza 8 bike in 2009 and can be classified as a Folding bicycle.
Cadenza 8 bike is available in many sizes such as Small , medium and large .
Dahon Folding Cadenza 8 can be found in one single color which is Smoke.
This bike is equiped with 26 x 2.0" Schwalbe Big Apple tires and Stainless spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by WTB SX24, 32-hole. Dahon equiped this exact model with Shimano Mechanical Disc brakes, Avid FR-5 levers braking system and Front: Shimano disc, Rear: Shimano Alfine 8 disc hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Dahon used 7005 aluminum material for the frame. Ritchey alloy flat high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Cadenza 8 to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Dahon F.I.T.
For the smoothest biking experience TruVativ ISO Flo 1.0, 38 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to KMC Z610 Rust Buster chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Dahon, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Alfine Rapidfire Plus gear shift levers.
