Front brushless hub motor and Rear mounted LiMn Battery for more balanced weight distribution. The Vitesse and Ciao Electric bikes are a joy to ride mainly thanks to the expertise of Dahon who manufacture the standard model and have 25 yrs of experience in the folding bike market. Our electric model is also easy to push along on it’s wheels when folded. This is achieved by leaving the saddle extended, tilting the folded bike to the point of balance, and it then requires very little effort to manoeuvre it around. The front and rear half of the bike are held together when folded by the Dahon Magnetix system.

The Electric motor kits are professionally fitted by ourselves in our workshop. The Battery is locked into the carrier with a key. The Battery can be removed for charging, or left in situ. if there is a powerpoint suitably positioned.
An intelligent charger is supplied with the bike which takes 4 - 6 hours to recharge the battery if it’s exhausted.

The bikes are sold with the usual warranty of one year on components and 5 years on the frame.
The Battery is now included with this 1 year parts warranty in common with some other manufacturers. (certain exclusions are applicable if the battery has been subject to abuse, or for example, dropped - they do not bounce too well) If used correctly the normal expected life of LiMn batteries is around 700 - 1000 charges.

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.
