Dahon Piccolo 4130 folding bike grey, 16 inch, 3 gears - Folding Bikes 4U
£39.95 GBP
The Dahon Piccolo 4130 is a compact folding bicycle designed for urban mobility, featuring a grey frame with a 16-inch wheel configuration and integrated 3-speed drivetrain. This folding bike combines lightweight portability with a practical small wheel geometry.
Design and Construction
Constructed using 4130 chromoly steel tubing, the Piccolo offers a robust frame with inherent vibration damping properties. The compact frame geometry positions the rider in an upright, efficient position that supports urban navigation and short-distance commuting. A mid-frame hinge mechanism enables quick, tool-free folding for multi-modal transport scenarios.
Components and Specification
The Piccolo's 3-speed drivetrain provides sufficient gear range for moderate terrain, allowing riders to adapt to varying urban gradients. Small 16-inch wheels contribute to the bicycle's compact fold and nimble handling characteristics. The lightweight frame supports easy lifting and carrying between transport connections or storage environments.
Ride Characteristics
Smaller wheel dimensions offer responsive handling in tight urban environments, with quick acceleration from stationary positions. The frame's geometry prioritises manoeuvrability over long-distance efficiency, making it well-suited to stop-start city riding. Chromoly steel construction provides a balance between structural rigidity and rider comfort.
Intended Use
Suited to riders requiring a compact bicycle for urban commuting, public transport integration, and environments with limited storage. The Dahon Piccolo supports flexible transport solutions where space and portability are primary considerations.
