2008 Dahon Mu SL Description
At only 8.7 kilos (19.4 lbs.), the Mu SL folding bike will bring a smile to your face every time you pick it up. It incorporates everything Dahon know about making an ultra light and fast folding bike for all-around use. A 7005 aluminum frame combined with six patented technologies add up to an incredibly stiff frame platform that makes the bike surge forward with each spin of the cranks. The Mu SL rolls on Kinetix Pro wheels - the lightest, fastest compact wheels on the planet. So if you’re looking for speed and an incredibly light bike, look no further.
