Vintage HON folding bike questions

Hi there,

I am Michael, greetings from Germany to all of you!

Since years I own a HON folding bike which I bought used. It still works well, except the rear shock absorber.
That's one reason to post my question:

- I'd like to get more information regarding model and production type of my HON.
- as well I need to understand which replacement fits for the old Air Shock absorber.

Serial number is DA00A2129, most probably the bike was made in Taiwan.

Thor couldn't specify age and model, assumes that the bike is app. 30 years old.
I will be grateful for any information that helps.

Pictures: will come from Post No. 11 (due to community rule)

Have a good one
Michael

You guys have strange rules. A ten-posts-hurdle to place a picture of a bicycle? And particular requirements how to do the posts?

I'll better stay in the German communities.

Dear Mr. Administrator without signature and real name (???), please delete my account.

What a Git !

You might be able to link to a google image of those, and post it..


in the 80's the Hon sales rep came to the shop I worked for.. I remember them ..

1st demerit was steel wheel rims , so long stopping distance in wet even foggy weather..

Hon was also a name of a steel Furniture line, so David Hon made them DaHon.
