Dahon Matrix bike review

Dahon produced the Matrix bike in 2003 and can be classified as a Folding bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $499.95.
Dahon Folding Matrix can be found in one single color which is Silver.
This bike is equiped with 26 x 1.40" semi-slick tires and UCP spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Aluminum, 36-hole. Dahon equiped this exact model with ProMax disc brakes, ProMax disc levers braking system and Aluminum, Q/R hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Dahon used 7005 aluminum material for the frame. Aluminum high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Matrix to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Dahon folding.
For the smoothest biking experience Aluminum is used on this bicycle linked to KMC chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Dahon, the whole system is connected to a high reliability SRAM 4.0 gear shift levers.
