Member of the Association of Cycle Traders

Smooth, effortless, graceful, that’s the dictionary definition of Glide, and it’s the perfect description of this favorite low-step folder. Instead of jumping in the car to get that trip to the local cafe for a baguette and a latte, grab a Glide and cruise the streets in European style. The UpRide frame geometry puts your body in a relaxed upright position - like you are walking, just a lot faster. You’ve never ridden a smoother, more comfortable bike. And when it comes time to fold, you’ll really appreciate how fast and small the Glide packs down.


	Custom-drawn Sonus 7005 aluminum frame tubing with six patented technologies. Patented DFS technology for a fast and easy 15 second fold. Integrated frame luggage bracket permits the attachment of hundreds of KlickFix compatible baskets and bags. NoLift Technology means that you can fold the bike completely without ever having to lift it, unlike almost all other folding bikes on the market.

		We are building this bike for those of you who require more gears than the 3 speed Briza. Well proven smooth shifting Shimano Nexus 8-speed Hub Gear.

			Important Customer Information


	For those of you who prefer a more personal service, we are always very happy to discuss the advantages of the various models to help quide you towards a bike that is suitable for your requirements and within your budget. We have a passion for folding bikes and their place in todays society for both the commuter and leisure cyclist alike. Please ring us if you need help or advice on 01666 822330

All Folding Bikes are thoroughly prepared and checked in the workshop (unless we state otherwise on Sale models) in order to validate the warranties, this involves a thorough setup and adjustment of spokes, bearings, brakes, gears (stops and cable adjustment). The chainset and crank, handlebars and all nuts and bolts are checked for tightness and the pedals fitted. Finally the tyre pressures are set and the folding joints and all quick releases are lubricated and adjusted. After a brief test ride (mainly indoor) they are then carefully packed back into the original boxes using appropriate packaging, this means that the bikes when received and unfolded are ‘ready to ride’ . All 26” wheel Dahon bikes arrive in the UK in boxes with the frame unfolded but the bike partially dismantled. We have taken the decision that in order to properly achieve our highest aim and that of the responsible manufacturers with whom we liase, that we therefore, properly prepare then fold the completed bike with only the handlebar removed, it is therefore necessary for us to repackage the bike accordingly on account of it’s larger size when assembled.
