Dahon Curve XL bike review

Dahon produced the Curve XL bike in 2010 and can be classified as a Folding bicycle.
Dahon Folding Curve XL 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, BioLogic VB levers braking system and Front: Kinetix Neutron, Rear: Shimano Nexus 8 speed Internal hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Dahon used 7005 Butted Aluminum Alloy material for the frame. 6061-T6 Aluminum high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Curve XL to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Radius V Telescope.
For the smoothest biking experience Sugino XD is used on this bicycle linked to KMC Z610RB chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Dahon, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Nexus Revo Shifter gear shift levers.
