Dahon M-¦ XL Sport bike review

Dahon produced the M-¦ XL Sport bike in 2009 and can be classified as a Folding bicycle.
Dahon Folding M-¦ XL Sport can be found in one single color which is Gunmetal.
This bike is equiped with 20" Schwalbe Marathon Racer tires and Stainless spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Kinetix Comp double wall. Dahon equiped this exact model with Kinetix SpeedStop V brakes, Alloy levers braking system and Front: Kinetix Pro, Rear: Shimano Premium Nexus 8 SE 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 M-¦ XL Sport to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Radius VRO.
For the smoothest biking experience Sugino XD, 46 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 Nexus Revo Shifter gear shift levers.
