I have owned 4 Dahons, including 2 Speed P8s. The all have had the Magnetix system. When we were an authorized Dahon dealer, we converted many of the "new" clip systems to the Magnetix system. The parts are available at Special Parts Dahon Tern and others
I think Dahon has moved back to the Magnetix system for most of its North American bikes.
