Dahon Vigor SOLD! or traded.

An acquaintance who bought something from me last time wanted to buy my bike and some of my old parts and I was to bring the bike over to his house. When I went there, I was suprised to see a whole house of classic and retro bikes. There were about 30 or so bikes hanging all over his pad!

When we were negotiating the price, I spotted something familiar in one corner and it was this Dahon Dash P18 that I was hunting for. It's the 2000 model which are made in Taiwan and not the recent China made ones. The bike was practically unused as his wife did not liked the bike. He wanted quite a sum for it and we sat down over 'teh halia' in Titiwangsa lakeside to thrash over the trade. I really wanted this bike!

Finally, we took off all the modifications on my Dahon Vigor leaving him a bare bone bike while I am saddled with more components. I lose some and he lose some, I won some and he won some! Can't wait to mod it to Dash P20........


Modding to this later stages!  thumbup.gif

How much? I think both are not standard anymore. A friend bought the Dr. Hon Speed P8 last year and both the items was also not standard. Only the old model was and the newer version price went down though. Anyway, it's not a big deal as the Schwalbe Big Apple is heavy and also it has quite a resistance when riding compared to slimmer tires. Also the seat post pump although good thumbup.gif but it is heavy! I have 3 Dahons and only one is using it while the other 2 use a lighter seatpost.

I think you saw an old review. Since last year, Dahon Speed P8 or P9 for that matter, specs has changed. Anyway selling price was above 2K in 2012. Price has gone down already so has the specs. I think yours is the plastic brake levers, better get that changed later. If it is the metal brake levers, it's OK.

Im want to get a foldie bike but i dun want to spend so much $$$ on it. Budget only rm1.2k
So i decided to choose from vybe c7a, vybe c7s and doppelganger.
However, i want to buy a used one as im not sure if i want to mod kaw kaw.
Today i went to survey at one shop, they only sell xds 270 n 260.

Is it a good idea to courier to swak?
If i want to COD from some shops over peninsular, does they pack it with lotsa foams?

Anyone wanna sell me their dahons within the price? icon_idea.gif

1. spare tire
2. multipurpose toolkit to change tire
3. handpump (optional)
4. simple first aid kit like plaster and alcohol swab sheet
5. puncture patches
6. disposable plastic glove (use to change tire or chain drop)
7. wet tissue (if you hand gets dirty somehow)
8. water bag (if cycling whole day)
