2011 Dahon Jetstream EX
 
Hello folks! Greetings from Malaysia..

I picked up my 2011 Jetstream EX today and am very excited because they are the last to be produced as it is no longer available in the 2012 line-up.. Here are some highlights in pictures..

That is a very sweet bike. would probably handle the rougher trails that you have in Malaysia with ease! also really nice looking disk brakes. basically the only thing you should do is removable pedals.

Very nice - good luck and enjoy! What is the weight limit for these? I would think that at 100KG+ the suspension would be weighed down so to speak and not offer as much travel...

vmaniqui 07-06-11 01:17 PM

nice looking bike. everyone's jealous now. more pics please. hmm you've got a serious case of folderitis too.

such a sweet bike. with all the blings. definitely a keeper as they will never build anything like that again.

samosaurus 07-07-11 11:51 PM

Hhahahah...

Yes, its definitely a keeper!

Sam :love::lol::love:

i see that you've been enjoying your bike. what with all those mud on the tires and mud splatters all over the bike (ha, ha, ha).

i wonder how long you have to wait though, to get yours once you ordered.

Nice post... you just don't get to see these up close much

mulleady 09-16-11 02:20 PM

Great pics. I got the same bike last year and love it. Do you have to adjust the air pressure in the suspension at all?

It has a very rigid ride and the component choices make for a great ride. The stock Schwalbe tyres are fast and versatile. I'd have them on any 20" bike!

Nice bike!

I can clearly see the difference in the disk brakes and rear shock..
