New DAHON ECO 3 FOLDING BICYCLE 7 SPEEDS Review

New DAHON ECO 3 FOLDING BICYCLE 7 SPEEDS
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Having owned a Dahon Eco 3 2009 for some time now, I find it truly fun to ride for short distances. The bike folds and unfolds quite easily without any problems. The materials used in making the bike are of good quality parts, especially when you consider the reasonable price of the bike. I paid only $299 plus tax for mine at the end of the biking season when it went on sale.
I carry it in the trunk of my car and ride on the streets around my office and home and on paced trails. Dahon Eco 3 is extremely stable and versatile to ride. It has the look and the feel that begs you to take it for a spin even if you are not an avid bicyclist. Just one try will convince you this is not just a toy but a fun bike to own and ride. Anyone less than 6 feet 4 inches can comfortably ride this bike but be sure you don't weigh more than 230 pounds per the manufacturer's specifications. For me, this is another worthy incentive to weigh less than 230 pounds.
Having written on all these nice things about the Eco 3, in my humble opinion, there are a few things every potential buyer needs to know before buying it: This bike is ideal for short distances, say less than 20 miles of non-stop riding on fairly flat grounds. Even the 7-speed is not enough to ease you up a steep grade without you getting winded. While riding your right leg pant bottom tend to get caught on the folding mechanism and can rip your pants. Ripped trousers are not cool when you are to or from or around workplace. Dahon really needs to remedy this flaw for their 2010 models.
Dahon should spec this bike with wireless computer/odometer and an optional shock absorbing saddle for a more comfortable ride.
Would I purchase this bike again? Would I recommend it to friends and contacts? The answers are definitely YES! YES!!

Does your daily commute consist of riding part of the way by bike and the rest by train or bus? Then you're probably familiar with the mixed feeling of dread and hope that the next bus or train has room for your bike. With the fast and easy folding Eco 3 bike, however, you can put your worries behind you. The Eco 3 folds up in just 15 seconds, and can be taken on just about any mass transit system when collapsed. As a result, the bike is perfect for rush hour commutes, as a transportation backup on drives through the country, or for leisurely rides to brunch on the weekend. The Eco 3 is equipped with a strong and light aluminum frame that adjusts to fit a wide range of riders. The bike is also incredibly stable compared to most foldable bikes. Small wheel folding bikes have a reputation for "twitchy" handling, but twitchy handling is the result of poor frame geometry more than wheel size. Dahon overcomes this twitchiness with the BioLogic II frame--the result of almost 25 years of refinement by the team at Dahon.
The BioLogic II frame also supports Dahon's AutoLok technology and ViseGrip latching mechanisms. The latching mechanisms are extremely strong and easy to operate, with a beautifully smooth shape that fits the hand perfectly. Folding hinges with AutoLok technology add to the bike's safety, as they automatically lock shut when the lever is closed. All in all, the Eco 3 offers the perfect urban bike experience.

Dahon Speed TR 2008 Review

Dahon Speed TR 2008
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
THIS WAS MY FIRST TIME PURCHASING A FOLDING BICYCLE, SO I DID A LOT OF RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET TO COMPARE DIFFERENT BRANDS, MODELS, AND SPECIFICATIONS. I FINALLY DECIDED ON THE DAHON SPEED TR AND AND AM VERY HAPPY WITH IT AFTER ALMOST TWO MONTHS OF USE. WHETHER THIS IS THE BICYCLE FOR YOU WILL DEPEND A GREAT DEAL ON WHAT YOU WANT TO USE IT FOR. I HAD A VERY SPECIFIC REASON FOR WANTING A FOLDING BICYCLE, NAMELY I WANTED TO USE IT FOR COMBINED BIKING/KAYAKING/CANOEING TRIPS. IT FOLDS VERY EASILY AND I CAN PACK IT INTO MY PAKBOAT FOLDING KAYAK. THEN AFTER PADDLING DOWNSTREAM, I CAN UNFOLD THE BIKE, FOLD UP THE KAYAK, AND RIDE HOME WITH MY KAYAK PACKED IN A BURLEY BIKE TRAILER ATTACHED TO THE BIKE. THERE IS NO ONE BIKE THAT WILL FIT THE BILL FOR ALL PEOPLE, BUT IF YOU WANT A BIKE TO TAKE TOURING, OR CAR-CAMPING, OR EVEN FOR GENERAL USE, THAT YOU NEED TO FOLD UP ON OCCASION TO TRANSPORT BY CAR, BUS, BOAT, TRAIN, OR PLANE, ETC., I THINK THE SPEED TR IS AN EXCELLENT CHOICE. IF YOU DO A LOT OF REGULAR COMMUTING AND YOU OFTEN HAVE TO CARRY AROUND THE BIKE FOLDED UP IN A BIKE BAG, YOU WILL PROBABLY WANT TO LOOK FOR SOMETHING LIGHTER AND PERHAPS MORE COMPACT. ALSO WHILE THE SPEED TR WILL HANDLE GRAVEL ROADS AND DIRT TRAILS THAT DON'T HAVE TOO MANY RUTS WELL ENOUGH, IF YOU ARE REALLY INTO OFF-ROAD BIKING YOU SHOULD LOOK AT GETTING A MOUNTAIN BIKE, ALTHOUGH THERE AREN'T TOO MANY CHOICES FOR MOUNTAIN BIKES IN THE FOLDING BIKE CATEGORY. AND IF YOU ARE SERIOUSLY INTO SPEED OR RACING YOU WILL ALSO WANT TO LOOK AT A DIFFERENT MODEL. NEVERTHELESS, THE BIKE HAS A GEAR RANGE WITH SUFFICIENT CRUISING SPEED AND CLIMBING POWER FOR MOST PEOPLE'S NEEDS. WHEN I FIRST CONSIDERED GETTING A FOLDING BIKE, I WAS A LITTLE CONCERNED WITH HOW THE SMALLER DIAMETER WHEELS (GENERALLY 16" OR 2O") TYPICAL ON MOST FOLDING BIKES WOULD HANDLE COMPARED TO THE 26" WHEELS COMMON ON MOST ADULT BICYCLES. INTUITIVELY I THINK WE TEND TO ASSOCIATE THE SMALLER WHEELS WITH KIDS BIKES, WHICH ARE GENERALLY SLOWER AND NOT EASY FOR ADULTS TO RIDE. SO I WAS ALMOST TEMPTED TO GO WITH A 26" MODEL FOLDING BIKE, WHICH WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN AS COMPACT FOR PACKING INTO MY KAYAK. I AM VERY GLAD THAT I DECIDED TO GO WITH THE MORE COMPACT 20" DAHON SPEED TR, BECAUSE IT HANDLES NEARLY THE SAME AS MY NON-FOLDING 26" DIAMONDBACK HYBRID WHICH ALSO HAS 24 SPEEDS. THE ONE DIFFERENCE IN HANDLING WITH THE SMALLER WHEELS IS THAT THE BIKE TURNS MORE SHARPLY AND QUICKLY THAN ONE MIGHT BE USED TO ON A LARGER WHEELED BIKE, BUT WITH A LITTLE PRACTICE ONE CAN EASILY ADJUST FOR THAT DIFFERENCE. MY ONLY COMPLAINT ABOUT THE DAHON SPEED TR IS THAT THE SADDLE/SEAT THAT CAME WITH THE BIKE WAS NOT TOO COMFORTABLE FOR ME, BUT IT IS EASY ENOUGH TO SWITCH TO A DIFFERENT SADDLE. OVERALL THE DAHON SPEED TR SEEMS TO BE STURDY AND RELIABLE AND WILL GET YOU WHERE YOU NEED TO GO, WITH THE ADDED ADVANTAGE OF BEING ABLE TO FOLD IT UP WHEN YOU WANT TO TAKE IT WITH YOU WHEN YOU ARE TRAVELING BY OTHER MEANS. PLUS IT WAS A RELATIVE BARGAIN WHEN I FOUND AN UNUSED 2008 MODEL STILL AVAILABLE FOR A MUCH LOWER PRICE THAN THE CURRENT 2010 MODELS.

Kent Compact 16 Aluminum Folding Bike (16-Inch Wheels) Review

Kent Compact 16 Aluminum Folding Bike (16-Inch Wheels)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The biggest advantage of this bike is of course that it is a folding bike, and because it has 16-inch wheels, it fits even in the trunk of a small car, which makes its transportation very easy and simple. The aluminum frame is light, and the general quality of the bike is pretty good. The all-terrain tires and the availability of lower gears make it suitable for riding on grass or some dirt roads as well, so a little mild off-roading is fine with this bike. However, the bike has some design flaws which somewhat limit its use. These include:
1. Slowness. Even though the bike has 6 speeds, the gear ratio is not high enough even in the highest gear. The peak speed I could reach on this bike is about 14 mph on flat ground, and that was by spinning like crazy. Better designed folding bikes have higher gear ratios. For this bike, the 6th gear has about 56 gear inches, which is not very high at all. Of course, the tires are not designed for high speeds either (relatively wide, low-pressure, all-terrain tires).
2. Crank arms are shorter than usual. Adult bikes usually have 170 mm long crank arms. But this bike, because of the low position of the bottom bracket, is only equipped with 140 mm long crank arms. This feels a bit strange and makes pedaling feel a bit harder than it should be. Better designed folding bikes have an elevated lower bracket position and therefore can use longer crank arms despite having 16-inch wheels.
3. Single-sided pedals. The bike has folding pedals, but strangely designed ones. Only one side of the pedal can be used because the other side is not flat enough. It is inconvenient to have to turn a pedal when you notice that it is upside down. Better designed folding bikes have two-sided folding pedals.
But of course, better designed folding bikes (like Dahon) are a lot more expensive. This bike is still a good buy, perfect for running errands in the city and for some leisurely riding. With patience, you can cover a long distance even with this bike; just don't try to join people with road bikes for weekend trips because this bike has about half the speed and half the range of a real road bike.

New dahon matrix 15" Review

New dahon matrix 15
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a smooth riding bicycle with great shock absorption. Gear shifting is a breeze and the disc brakes are nice. I was a little disappointed to find out the handlebars and pedals have to be removed when folding the bike if you want to store it in the trunk of a small car. It's not a whole lot of trouble or that time consuming, but still not as easy to fold as my Dahon Espresso. On the other hand, the Matrix doesn't look like a folding bike. Would have preferred a wider saddle.

The all-new Matrix is a versatile bike that will take on anything you throw at it. Drop it down on the nastiest potholed roads and the hydraulically-damped fork smooths everything out. On tarmac, lock out the fork and you can hammer away efficiently. Slap some knobbies on and you can even take the Matrix off-road. For 2008, we?ve given the Matrix a brand new frame featuring LockJaw folding hinges: when locked down, the hinges are incredibly strong but virtually invisible so nobody will even know you?re on a folding bike. by dahon.

Columba 26" Alloy Double Suspension Folding Bike with Shimano, Blue Color Review

Columba 26 Alloy Double Suspension Folding Bike with Shimano, Blue Color
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is the first folding bike we have had, and it was purchased for my teenager son about 1.5 months ago. Since I found that most other folding bikes have smaller wheels, we had concern about the 26" wheels this bike uses. It turned out to be a nicely designed and built product! We could easily fold it and put it in the trunk of my Acura TL sedan wherever we go. It is light weight, rides great, as steady as my non-folding bike because of the double suspension. My son loves it. I enjoy riding it so much that I want to get one for myself too. The costomer service was excellent. The seller always answered my inquiries extrememly politely, promptly, and professionally.
Highly recommend.

Schwinn Loop 7-Speed Folding Bike Review

Schwinn Loop 7-Speed Folding Bike
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I just received it from Amazon last week, set it up immediately, and only took it to the bike store to make sure of everything. It does NOT ride like a toy, as one customer said, but is far more steady than any Dahon I've ridden. It's a bit too heavy for me to lift up, but others may not find that a problem. Once you get the catch open - it's difficult because a lot of pressure is needed, but that's for safety reasons - it folds easily. For a man, this would be easier. An absolute pleasure to have the LOOP AT THE BOTTOM, AND NOT TO HAVE TO PUT MY LEG OVER A HIGHER BAR. The handle bar is fixed and can't be adjusted, but it's fine for me. The seat is adjustable, though. Goes up hills easily. This is far superior to the citizen bikes, in my opinion, with their rickety chain that falls off easily. It is rather larger than appears in the pictures, so look at the specifications carefully. I was surprised that Schwinn put it into such a shabby carton for the trip from China and then to other places before it came to me. All I did was rip the side of the carton open, and the bike slid out (folded, of course.)

Amazon.com Bicycle Buying Guide Finding the Right Bike To really enjoy cycling, it's important to find a bicycle that works for you. Here are some things to keep in mind when you're in the market for a new bike:
The Right Ride In general, bikes are broken down into three major categories:
Road and Racing Bikes--As a general rule, road and racing are built for speed and longer distances on paved surfaces. Thinner tires, lightweight 29-inch (700c) wheels, and drop bars that allow for a more aerodynamic position are the norm. Most road bikes, regardless of price, offer many gears for tackling both hilly and flat terrain.
Mountain Bikes--With their larger tires, hill-friendly gearing, and upright position, mountain bikes are very popular for all types of riding, both on pavement and off. Mountain bikes that are designed specifically for rugged trail use typically feature a suspension fork. Some may have rear suspension, as well. A quick change of the tires on any mountain bike--even one that you use regularly on trails--adds to its versatility and makes it a worthy street machine.
Comfort/Cruiser Bikes--For tooling around on bike paths, light trails, or for cruising a quiet beach-side lane, comfort/cruiser bikes are the ticket. With a super-relaxed riding position, padded seats, and limited or no gearing, these bikes are made for enjoying the scenery and having fun with the family.

The Right Price A bike's price boils down to three essentials: frame materials, bike weight, and component quality and durability.
Entry-level--You'll find a wide range of comfort and cruiser bikes in this category, as well as some lower-end mountain bikes and road bikes. Most will have steel frames and components that are designed to last for several years with frequent use.
Mid-range--Bikes in this range may feature a lighter aluminum frame with mid-range components that keep performing after miles of use. If you're looking for a quality bike that is relatively lightweight and will stand up to abuse, this is the "sweet spot." Most serious commuter and touring bikes fall into this category, as do mid-range mountain bikes with a decent front suspension.
High-end--Racers and serious enthusiasts who expect lightweight, high-performance components will want to stick to this category. For road bikes, exotic frame materials (carbon fiber, titanium) and ultralightweight components can add thousands to the price tag. Mountain bikes in this class often feature advanced front and rear suspension technology, as well as components designed to handle lots of rugged trail action.

The Right Size Fit is crucial for comfort, control, and proper power and endurance on a bike. Here are some basic bike fit tips:
Stand-over Height--To find out if a bike's overall height fits your body, measure your inseam. Next, determine how much clearance you'll need between your crotch and the top tube of the bike. For a mountain bike, you'll want three to five inches of clearance. A road bike should offer between one and two inches of clearance, while a commuter bike should have two to four inches. Compare the stand-over height for a given bike to your measurements (inseam + clearance) to determine the right bike height.
Top Tube Length--You can measure your torso to get a good estimate of proper top tube length. First, make a fist and extend your arm. Measure from the center of your fist to the end of your collarbone (the part that intersects your shoulder). Next, measure your torso by placing a book against your crotch with the spine facing up. Measure from the spine to the bottom of your throat (the spot between your collarbones). Finally, add the two measurements (arm length + torso length), divide the number in half, and subtract six inches. This is your approximate top tube length. Compare this number to a bike's posted top tube length. You can allow for about two inches longer or shorter, as most bikes can be adjusted via stem length/height and saddle fore/aft position to make fine adjustments to the fit.
Bikes for Women--Proportionally, women tend to have a shorter torso and longer legs than men. Bike makers design women's bikes that offer a shorter top tube and many comfort/cruiser bikes built for women may also provide more stand-over clearance.

The Right Accessories When you make a bike purchase, don't forget these crucial add-ons:
Helmet (this is a must!)
Seat pack
Lock
Hydration pack, or water bottle and bottle cage
Spare tubes
Portable bike pump
Gloves
