dahon jack folding bikeYour eyes are not deceiving you, the Dahon Jack IS a folding bicycle. Unlike the typical folding bicycles that you are familiar with, the Dahon Jack when unfolded looks and rides like a traditional non-folding street bike.

When folded, the Dahon Jack will fit in the trunk (boot) of most cars without the hassle of using a car rack. You don’t even have to leave it on the street, just take it inside with you.; it only measures 13.3″ x 36.7″ x 30.8″.

The Dahon Jack is built on a 7005 aluminum frame, with phat Schwalbe Big Apple tires and 7 speed gears. You also get a hidden pump located in the seat post.

    Sweet bikes, those full size Dahon folders. I have my eyes on one of the electric powered Dahons like this one. A bit expensive but it seems like the best one available:
