Ty for the nice photo and informative posting of the Dahon Dash P18. I currently own a Dahon Silvertip and planning to get two more folders for my Missy and dad(Gona do some light touring). Im set on getting Dash P18 and another lower end folder maybe a gaint folder or dahon.

Hi Im from singapore , I got mine here at a bad price, will rather get a dash 18 over the silvertip cause of the better pricing in malaysia.

Well from me wanting to get another mid town dahon , it show how much I love this series. Been riding the silvertip for 1 month plus , 1000++ km and survived three accidents(2 slides and 1 180 flip) and the bike is still going strong, no strange noise or damage part.(One tough folder ). The lockjaw hinge is well design , down side is the need to use allen key to fold.

This bike love to go fast, been able to hit abt 35 - 40 km/m on road , average comfortable cruising speed is abt 30km/h.

Not sure if the smaller gearing will make a diff in hill climbing, but the engine makes all the diff.

Test ride both bike before deciding. I insisted on testing the bike ride quality before I pull the trigger on the dahon. Dahon resell value is better so its easier to resell incase you dun like the ride.

Opps my bad !!

The halfway must be the newer version, much better looking
The old version I saw over here is going for $899 (RM2202 current exchange rate).
