Dahon Curve SL bike review

Dahon produced the Curve SL bike in 2010 and can be classified as a Folding bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $999.00.
Dahon Folding Curve SL can be found in one single color which is Magnesium.
This bike is equiped with 16 x 1.50" Schwable Marathon Racer tires and Stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Kinetix Pro. Dahon equiped this exact model with Kinetix SpeedStop V brakes, Avid FR-5 front/Avid FR- 5 rear levers braking system and Front: Kinetix Neutron, Rear: Shimano Capreo hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Dahon used 7005 Butted Aluminum Alloy material for the frame. Kinetix Pro high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Curve SL to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Radius V Telescope.
For the smoothest biking experience FSA Gossamer is used on this bicycle linked to SRAM PC-971 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Dahon, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Capreo gear shift levers.
