In 1982, Dr. David T. Hon, a renowned American aerospace expert and physicist, founded the company DAHON.
Created with the simple aim of designing folding bikes without compromise to rideability. “Freedom Unfolds” is the Dahon principle, that’s why each Dahon model is carefully designed to meet the needs of the rider.
Dahon philosophy is that foldable bicycles can, and should, deliver ride performance as good as or better than a traditional bike.
Founded in 1982 in California, USA, Dahon has a long and rich history. Igniting the folding bike revolution in the US and bringing game-changing ideas to the market, Dahon has since expanded Worldwide, bringing our innovation to the global market.
DAHON has produced their distinctive folding bikes in their own factories and production lines across the globe including China, Netherlands, Czech Republic, Romania and Bulgaria.
In 2000, Dahon was awarded a Guinness World Record for being “World’s largest producer of folding bicycles”.
