SEE IT FOLDED
  • Lunch rides to that great new café.
  • Beating traffic on a morning ride into the City.
  • Weekend rides around Central Park.

The Mu XL is the ultimate city bike: it features plush suspension, self-generated lighting, luggage capacity, puncture resistant tires, and style to spare. The Shimano Nexus 8 Premium hub, delivers eight widely spaced gears, excellent efficiency, marvelously smooth shifting, and low maintenance. And because it folds, you’ll never need to leave your precious Mu XL outside, in the care of bike thieves..

  • Custom Spanninga HiLux LED front light makes sure you can see and be seen.
  • The dynamo hub powers the front hub as you ride – no batteries needed.
  • Fully equipped so it’s great for commuting in any weather.
  • New Radius V handlepost is substantially stronger and stiffer.
  • Dahon Special Edition Shimano Nexus 8 hub with fewer spoke holes permits better spoke angles and a stronger wheel.
