Dahon Electric Folding Bikes are manufactured by the Dahon Company. They are located in Los Angeles, California; their bicycles are assembled in factories in Taiwan, Macau, the Czech Republic and China with parts sourced from the leading component manufacturers from around the world. Dahon is widely recognized for their production of inexpensive, but premium folding bikes. Dahon débuted in 1982 with the production of their first folding bike; they have since sold over two million folding bikes. Dahon’s official philosophy is to create “green mobility solutions for people who live active, environmentally friendly lifestyles.” With Dahon Electric Bicycles, riders get the benefits of both an Electric bike and a Folding bike in one compact package.

Electric Bicycles are basically bicycles with electric motors used to power them. A Folding bike is just that, a bike that folds up! These bikes are ideal for those who commute or need too board crowded trains or have a small living space. The folding mechanisms vary between bikes, but they all tend to be very compact, light weight and durable.

The following are a few examples of Dahon Electric Bicycles available through the UrbanScooters.com Marketplace; The Dahon Boost electric bike comes equipped with front and rear fenders, as well as a rear rack that is integrated into the frame. The front and rear headlights are powered from the battery and everything is simple to control from a dash panel on the handlebars. As a commuter bike, it has excellent integration of portability with an easy-to-use electric system. The Dahon Matrix Bionx is a high-quality and durable Dahon Matrix folding bike that comes with a Bionx electric bike kit. You gain the benefits of electric assistance and the portability and compactness of a folding bike, greatly transforming your ride. The Dahon MuP8 Electric Bike With P250 BionX Electric Motor System is one of the smallest and lightest folding electric bicycles on the market. It can be folded in less than 20 seconds into a size roughly 13" x 25" x 30". It has a range of 20-30 miles and either a pedelec or throttle console. It is the perfect bike for the commuter or urban cyclist who wants the assistance of an electric bicycle without the usual heavy weight and large size.
