Dahon Speed 4130 Chromoly Folding Bike 7 gears blue - Folding Bikes 4U
£179.95 GBP
The Dahon Speed 4130 is a chromoly steel folding bicycle configured with a 7-speed drivetrain and distinctive blue colourway. Designed for urban cyclists seeking a compact folding bike with versatile transportation capabilities, this model integrates small wheel geometry with a robust frame construction.
Design and Construction
Constructed from chromoly 4130 steel, the frame offers a balance between lightweight performance and structural durability. The mid-frame hinge mechanism enables a compact fold, allowing seamless integration with multi-modal transport systems. The geometry prioritises an upright riding position, supporting rider comfort and urban navigation.
Components and Specification
A 7-speed derailleur transmission provides sufficient gear range for varied urban terrain, with shifting managed through a reliable indexed mechanism. The blue colour scheme adds visual distinction to the bicycle's pragmatic design. Smaller 20-inch wheels contribute to the bike's fold-down capabilities while maintaining responsive handling characteristics.
Ride Characteristics
The shorter wheelbase ensures nimble handling in congested urban environments, with the steel frame absorbing minor surface irregularities. Smaller wheels accelerate quickly from stationary positions, making the bicycle well-suited to stop-start commuting scenarios. The hinge mechanism allows rapid transformation between riding and compact storage configurations.
Intended Use
This folding bicycle supports riders requiring a versatile transportation solution, particularly those integrating cycling with public transport or managing limited storage spaces. The specification accommodates regular commutes across paved surfaces and light mixed terrain.
