I can't find your searches with numbers, but you have a 1-1/8" headset with the top-cap threading inside the fork. Thor's page lists that as being standard on most 2006-and-later Dahons.

The last one 142387684603 references a Dahon Radius. For 2006 and later. It will fit. It's the same item listed on Thor's site.

The bottom of the hinge is a quill, that goes inside the fork, that is the interface between the 2..

I'd use that I.D.

The Dahon Radius are similar to threadless, the stem clamps to the OD of the fork, but instead of a star fangled nut the ID of the for is threaded and there is a large stubby bolt that draws down on the stem and sets the bearing load.

what other measuring tools do you own? I recommend a digital read out caliper.



threadless headset on my Tikit has an adjustable spacer.. different solutions.. abound.
