2008 Dahon Flo Description
A steel hardtail for anything from flowing single track, to epic all-day rides. Dahon's old friend Joe Murray, mountain bike hall of famer, two-time U.S. mountain bike champion, and probably the most respected name in steel hardtail design, helped Dahon design the Flo. Dahon's goal was to build the ultimate go-anywhere-in-the-world ride. With Joe's frame geometry and Reynolds' 631 air-hardened steel tubing, the Flo delivers a ride that's so smooth, yet lively, that it's hard to believe if you've only ridden aluminum mountain bikes. Fifteen minutes (ten if you're good) is all it takes to pack the Flo into a suitcase for easy travel, whether you're jumping on a plane for Mallorca or into a car for a road trip to Mexico. With the Flo, you'll never have to leave your bike at home again.
