Dahon Matrix bike review

Dahon produced the Matrix bike in 2008 and can be classified as a Folding bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $799.95.
Matrix bike is available in many sizes such as Small , medium and large .
Dahon Folding Matrix can be found in one single color which is Moss.
This bike is equiped with 26 x 1.50" Continental Sport Contact tires while the rims are manufactured by WTB SX24, 32-hole. Dahon equiped this exact model with Shimano Mechanical Disc brakes, Avid FR-5 front/Avid FR- 5 rear levers braking system and Shimano disc hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Dahon used 7005 Alloy material for the frame. Ritchey Riser high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Matrix to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Dahon F.I.T.
For the smoothest biking experience FSA Dyna Drive, 28/38/48 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to KMC Z82 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Dahon, the whole system is connected to a high reliability SRAM SX5 gear shift levers.
