Le mien model 0ctobre 2021 !! Les usagers se vend 750$ alors neuf a se prix super !! Le meilleur vélo que j’ai eu vraiment satisfait

I recently purchased this bicycle for my wife after she had taken my 15 year old Dahon and would not give back to me. The Mariner D8 is a lightweight, solid bicycle that folds down to a reasonably small package, making it a great commuter bicycle. In addition, the fenders do a good job of keeping the mud streaks off of clothing and gear. The gear ratio settings are about right, allowing for relatively steep grades to be climbed despite having a single chain ring in the front. The bike tops out at around 25 mph with respect to gearing, but 30 mph can be achieved going downhill. The 20" wheels are large enough to avoid flipping or getting caught in potholes, while still being small enough for the bike to fold into a tight enough package for traveling. The fold down handlebar stem is much improved over my older generation of Dahon. The Mariner D8 has also proven to have the same dependable reliability and high quality I have come to expect from Dahon. I have looked at Brompton's and they are nice bikes, but it is hard to justify double the price difference for something that is of equal performance. Kudos to Dahon for making great bicycles and continuing to iterate on solid engineering and building on quality.

One of the bolts was missing as the box was damaged. Otherwise arrived in good condition

I love my bike! I can fit it in a regular 28" suitcase and safely transport it by plane. The only downside is that even when it's advertised to be corrosion resistant (they say that's why it's called Mariner), I'm finding several rusting points after only a couple of weeks.
