Today we are doing a bike check review of the new 2022 Dahon HIT folding bike and popular Asian model Dahon Boardwalk D7 folding bike.
We have been really interested in folding bikes lately since we want to use them for our future world travels. This is our first time on 20 inch wheel folding bikes, and as a taller rider (6ft / 183cm) I was very impressed with how well these bikes fit me despite being folding bikes, which I always assumed just fit better on shorter riders.
The other great things about both of these bikes is they can fit both my wife and myself with a simple quick release saddle and stem adjustment.
Here is more information about each bike, including components, weight, folding size, etc.
