Dahon Curve SL bike review
Dahon produced the Curve SL bike in 2009 and can be classified as a Folding bicycle.Dahon Folding Curve SL can be found in one single color which is Magnesium.
This bike is equiped with 16 x 1.50" Schwalbe Marathon Racer SE tires and Sapim Polyax stainless spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Kinetix Pro. Dahon equiped this exact model with Kinetix SpeedStop V brakes, Avid FR-5 levers braking system and Front: Kinetix Neutron, Rear: Shimano Capreo hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Dahon used 7005 butted aluminum 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 KMC Z610 Rust Buster chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Dahon, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Capreo gear shift levers.
