Dahon Mariner Designed for Performance
From stored to freedom in 20 seconds
Mariner is the high performance bike in the Halfords Dahon range.
Designed for me
Hi I’m Matilda and I live in Cambridgeshire and work in London. I ride to and from the station each day and then commute on the train with my Dahon Mariner; I ride everywhere else one once I get to Kings Cross.
The Mariner is the real workhorse of the Halfords Dahon range so fits my lifestyle perfectly. I use it everyday for my commute so it needs to be quick to fold, durable, fully loaded and comfortable to ride for up to 45 minutes at a time on inner city roads, tracks and paths.
I use it for up to six local rides in London each day between labs, studios and offices. On each journey I unfold and fold it – that’s a lot of pressure on the hinges and folding parts. I do not want it to let me down.
The Mariner feels solid and gives me confidence to ride it on different surfaces; sometimes quickly if I am running late! It also has a nice paint job which makes it stand out from the crowd. My Dahon Mariner is a lovely subtle shade of Pink.
Designed for Rideability
Dahon folding bikes have 20 inch wheels which makes them perfect for everything from short city commutes through to longer rides in the countryside.
Having larger wheels provides the Dahon with improved steering, and rideability, meaning that the cycling experience is improved. The patented Dahon folding design allows the bike to be easily stored and unfolded for riding.
With a Dahon you get the riding experience and feel of a traditional bike with all the benefits of easy transportation and storage. By focussing on rideability by making bicycles that are easier and more convenient to use, Dahon aims to help increase the number of people able to fit cycling into their lives.
That’s why you’ll find there’s a DAHON folding bike that’s right for virtually every individual, and for every situation
