The Curve SL does everything you’d expect it to as the top of the line Dahon commuter bike: fold in seconds, weigh next to nothing, and fold small enough to fit into a shopping bag. But where it really shines is how well it rides. Revised frame geometry is reassuringly stable. A custom SL version of the Sturmey-Archer 5 speed hub provides all the gears you’re likely to need on a commute. And Schwalbe Big Apple tires are fast rolling, yet so smooth that you’ll be spoiled for life. Slip a Curve SL into an El Bolso and you’ll be instantly mobile, anytime, anywhere.

Ultra light - only 9.9 kg.

Super compact — folds small enough to fit anywhere: under a bus seat, in a storage locker, in the trunk of a car or under your desk.

Fast folding - 15 seconds

 

 

Magnetix™ latch holds the bike neatly together when folded

FREE TUNE-UP - a £30 value!

Dahon requires all of their bikes to be checked and adjusted by a trained bicycle mechanic before riding.
This activates the warranty and you can then upgrade to a lifetime warranty simply by sending the warranty card in.
Without this service, you'd have to bring your bike down to the local bike shop for a tune up before riding and you'd get charged up to £30.
We offer this service for free, so when you get your bike from us, all you have to do is unfold it and you can start riding.

*Note: These are Dahons standard model specifications. We do our best to ensure that the specifications listed here accurately reflect the exact parts found on our delivered bikes. However, component changes do occur for various reasons and there may be brief delays on site updates. Dahon reserve the right to make component changes without prior notification, which may cause discrepancies with the information listed on the web.
