Does anyone know how much weight this is going to take off? How high (headtube to bar) is the non-adjustable post?
I did this with my 2006 Helios P8 as I was getting rather disconcerted by the movement in the handlepost. It took ages to track down the part and at one point Dahon UK told me it would not fit my bike. Well I got the part and it fitted perfectly. There's no more rotating, the bike is lighter, it folds quicker and rides better. The fold is slightly bigger, but it is a worthwhile upgrade.
