Dahon Boost Electric Folding Bike

⊕ Click image to enlarge.

This new 20" wheeled model is elegant, well integrated, light, strong on hills and comes fully equipped. It is most enjoyable and smooth to ride, handles nimbly and pedals with ease also in power-off and reduced power modes.

Dahon has with the Boost produced an electric folder that folds just as quickly, easily and compact as their non-electric high end models, and to a mere 14 x 26 x 33". The Boost incorporates Dahon's Magnetix system that 'clicks' and holds the folder neatly and securely together.

The Boost is intuitively pedal activated (torque sensing) with a bottom bracket placed drive system, incorporating a 24V/250W motor connected through a unique Japanese designed crank drive. See also What's Watt.

The Boost is energy efficient and a delight to pedal (as well in power settings 'low' and 'off') why its nominally mere 5 AH battery shall provide quite an adequate range for many a rider and rides.

Handle bar controls and gauges include power setting (three), state of charge and a 'light up the night' front light.
