They aren't that different. Really, the only thing I felt was that the cockpit is a smmmmmidgen smaller on the Mini. Mind you, for the price, though, the Mini is the better bargain. I don't think I could live with out my 8 speed hub, and that was a pricey upgrade.

Oh, and rhm definitely sold me on the shorter crank length.
Nice looking bikes. The forward lean on the Dahon's steering column meant that I could actually ride the bike. I doubt I'd fit on the Downtube.
