Dahon Ciao D8 Nexus 8 Speed IGH Hub-Folding Low Step Through Frame- Great Cond.
£291.90 GBP
The Dahon Ciao D8 Nexus IGH is a practical low step-through folding bicycle tailored for stylish urban commuting, relaxed town riding.
This is a very enjoyable bike to ride with the suspension seatpost & padded suspension saddle making it comfortable at the same time. It has the Nexus 8 Speed internal hub gears which are smooth to use and produces speed when required. It is easy to fold and unfold, even having a catch to keep the handlebar in place when folded. Comes with a rear rack & mudguards.
The front light dynamo wheel was upgraded last year to a wheel with a Shimano dynamo that produces little drag & spins much more efficiently compared to the original wheel. Also has a new front dynamo lamp and the original rear battery light.
The bike was serviced late last year and has had little use since. The service included new chain, new inner/outer brake cables, new inner/outer gear cable, new 8 speed Nexus shifter, new handlebar grips and new pedals. Everything else, including catches, folding mechanism and locking points work well. A really nice bike that is enjoyable to use.
Key Specifications & Features
- Low Step-Through Frame: Features a distinctively low-slung, U-shaped aluminum frame. This design is heavily optimized for easy mounting and dismounting, making it ideal for riders wearing casual or formal clothes, or anyone else really.
- Shimano Nexus 8-Speed IGH: Utilizes a Shimano Nexus Internal Gear Hub (IGH) instead of a rear derailleur. This allows you to shift gears while completely stationary (e.g., at a red light) and encloses the gears away from water, salt, and road grit.
- 20-Inch Wheels: Built with compact 20" wheels that balance a stable, traditional ride feel with a compact folded footprint.
- Low-Maintenance Drivetrain: Because the chain stays on a single sprocket without moving across a cassette, the bike suffers far fewer dropped chains and requires significantly less cleaning and grease.
- Fully Outfitted for Commuting: Comes equipped with integrated mudguards, a rear luggage rack, and a kickstand.
