BIKES - BOARDWALK D6


Boardwalk D6

Price: £269.99


Since its introduction five years ago, the Boardwalk has been the world's best selling folding bicycle. How does Dahon do it? Perhaps it's because they pack everything they know about folding bicycles into a single bike that is affordably priced. Last year, a lot of people said that the Boardwalk D6 delivered more value than any other folding bike on the market, but Dahon wasn't nearly satisfied: for 2004 they've given the Boardwalk a totally upgraded frame featuring a beautiful investment-casted Lattice hinge, ViseGrip™ stainless steel folding latch, and forged drop-outs. They've upgraded the components as well with a cushy Velo Ergo saddle, Suntour crankset, upgraded brakes and a dozen other improvements. Take one for a test ride and see what the fuss is about.

SuperLite 4130 chromoly frame w/ investment-casted Lattice hinge, forged drop-outs, and ViseGrip™ folding latch

Magnetix™ latch system holds the bike together when folded
