Thanks for confirmation that I made a wise purchase with the Schwalbe Kojaks.
The thread is called "fasted tire for Brompton" - which means EtRO-size 349. Your Dahon will probably use 406 tires. While the Kojak is still a good tire the 406 version differs somewhat from the 349 version in terms of properties (i,e, it is able to live with less pressure) and - more important - tire choice or tires is far bigger for 406. For 406 there are faster tires out there than the Kojak, i.e. the Schwalbe pro one or some Continentals. So while your choice is by no means bad it is a misunderstanding to get confirmation for your 406 choice from a dedicated 349 thread.
