Finished it a couple months ago.
Dahon Boardwalk
front wheel's stock
rear wheel 451 from Nashbar
put on some drops

Hoping to switch out some skinnier tires up front, but I'm having a lot of fun with it.

I am curious about the possible trade-offs that you might have chosen. Could you still fold the bike with drop handlebars?

Could you post the picture a different way? Can not see it for some reason.

That is freaking awesome! :)
Nice modifications!

If only you didn't need brakes, I think it would look awesome "track" style (or keirin!)
More pics please! (Maybe showing the opposite side)

cheers

As above: folded pics and more specs please...
Also, if you run 451 at the front with skinny tire, you should be able to fit racing (short reach) brake.

I dig your style. Nice pedals too!
