I enjoyed the video Roger, thanks for your input. I purchased a 2014 Speed P8 in the red color, my wife has a Mariner D7. I hope to get it dialed in tomorrow at the bike shop and hit some bike trails. Keep up with the reviews!!!
Love the bike, I have a Vitesse and will stay with it for a while, problem is only 3 gears, OK for commuting. One thing you may want to ask your friends at Dahon is where can we buy pannier bags for Dahon bikes in London/UK? I just cannot find any, nobody sells them, so let me know if you can.
Today I bought me new comfort trekking saddle from the Aldi market for only $10. I mounted it on the folding bike, made a test ride and the result is that it feels good on the saddle, I don't feel pain anymore. I think the stock saddle on it was made for small light-weight people.
Very cool, man. I'm glad you're doing things to keep fit while on the road. So, 6 years later, are you still taking bike rides on your Dahon while on the road, or has anything changed in terms of how you get in some exercise to build up your fitness and increase your health while on the road?
8 speed is the most that we know of. Roger tested the single speed and that was significantly slower, however, the nice thing is that there are fewer parts to maintain.
I've been riding this bike for about a month th-cam.com/users/postUgkxwC0IIeIomGQVeBWg-kKJaToZkLEFIA2W and a half now and I think it's fantastic. It helps me get to work on time every day since I'm able to fit it inside of public transportation rush hour. The price is great too, people are always shocked when they ask me how much I paid for the fold up and I tell them "200". It's easy to fold and installation when it ships is insanely easy. All you have to install when the bike arrives is one foot pedal, everything else is done for you. I do recommend you carry some sort of wrench to tighten any loose screws on the handle bar and seat whenever they get a little bit loose. Other than that I think it's a fantastic bike. Easily fits in the home, can fit inside a car trunk and can even fit in subway rush hour.
I eould never recommend it to any one that wants to fold and unfold quickly or transport in trolley mode It is a nightmare Mine is on sale after only a few months Worst purchase I have made in a while
Thanks for sharing Roger, really great detail for viewers and glad you are enjoying the bike!

Just got mine couple of days back... it's really doing well for city riding & weekends .. All I can say it's fun. Thanks Dahon
That is great. What model did you get? Enjoy.
Hey how's the bike holding up? Would you recommend this bike for commuting?
*Nice and easy to fold and unfold. I like the **Latest.Bike** of it components and so far it rides pretty well in pavement-ed trails*
It's one of the best Dahon Folding bikes. I have a Dr. Hon Speed D7 and it is a beast!
I have the same black & red best bike
great video thanks for sharing
Thanks for commenting Eric!
One of the Best dahon bike.

I have the exact same bike .I noticed you had a water bottle attached to yours, how did you do that?

Good for you. Enjoy the ride.
Thanks, you too.

Are these as enjoyable to ride long distances as full size bikes?
Hello.
Is D8 better than D9?
I’m buying one of them and let me know please

Powerful
What's your weight?
😎 is this bike fast?
You said in the video that your cruising at 25--30 kph.. Can the bike go any faster.. and do dahon make a bike with more than 8 speed.. Thanks.
8 speed is the most that we know of. Roger tested the single speed and that was significantly slower, however, the nice thing is that there are fewer parts to maintain.
I am thinking of buying one and then converting it to an ebike. For the amount it should at least get a front suspension!!
Im 5"3 us thus bike too high for me?
OMG...looks like Chumlee's blonde twin :-)
