Not quite sure, all I know is from the website. From there I learn that this particular machine gives more rideability at the expense of instant folding. Will collapse to be suitable for busses and trains quite quickly, will take 5 minutes with an allen key to reduce to minimum size for a flight.

There's also a similar machine called the Speed TR (Touring) with racks. Might be even better for what I'm looking for.

But, I don't know what's in the range in 2009, and I think that Dahon upgrade and alter their range regularly, so maybe those bikes are history now. However, I've asked this question of a UK Dahon dealer, so it's more than an idle speculation
