Good find. I snagged one off CL
Pump had bad hose and wheels needed tubes, but o/w OK. (ew,Slime)
Check the SN# with Dahon for the stem recall.
I am not sure how they fail but they have been good about replacing them and it is an easy swap out.
Keep an eye on adjusting the headstem, regardless
Watch out for the seat tube cap getting loose and pump dropping (that's what took out mine)
They are a bit hefty and poky(um, relaxed), but have a cush ride with the BigApples
It ain't a brommie, but it ain't $1500 either
Line up a spare tube source, as they are not real common, and have fun
Pretty bulletproof bike
