Seeing as the SGM Storm, Atomic Fit, Mouse, Tern and Peerless bike brands have their own dedicated discussion threads already, why not a thread for Dahon bikes? I've searched for similar threads and have come up with nil.
Let me start things off with my own bike, a three-month-old Dahon Vitesse D7. Currently it is my only bike, used for commuting and general riding for fitness.

So far all my "upgrades" have been commute-specific: lights, a bottle cage, saddle bag and tools, and a pair of panniers. Lately though, I have seen the weaknesses of the Vitesse and I am now eyeing a wider-ranged drivetrain. I already have most of the parts; I just need a set of hubs and Ergon GP2 bar-ended grips.
