  • Blasting around town, just because
  • Stashing behind your seat on the train
  • Leaving other bike commuters in the dust

The Mu XL gets a complete makeover for 2010. We’ve gone out and created the ultimate urban commuter; a bike that is extremely light and portable, but also comfortable to ride and fast to fold. We started with a Mu SL and added the smoothest hub on the market today, the Shimano Alfine. Next we added a Dahon Andros stem, a quick release stem that lets riders adjust the handlebar height and reach so every rider gets a perfect, dialed in position. Finally, we added some worthy urban components like Kevlar lined Schwalbe Marathon tires and the BioLogic FreeDrive to keep clothes clean from grease. Mission accomplished.

  • The perfect riding position – guaranteed by the incredibly adjustable Andros stem and Kore saddle
  • Shimano Alfine hub is super smooth and has eight widely spaced gears
  • The lightest hub geared bike on the market
  • Folds in seconds and is easy to carry so you never need to leave it outside
