What problem does it solve?
Many first-time buyers want a reasonably priced, easy-to-ride folding bike that can carry a little shopping or a work bag. The Dream D6 pairs a high-carbon steel frame with 6 speeds, and the official photos show a rear rack and mudguards already fitted, so there is nothing extra to add. Dahon lists a 105 kg maximum load, and Jollymap's Dahon buying guide names the Dream D6 as an entry option for beginners on a budget.
Who is it for?
The Dream D6 suits riders 150–180 cm tall making short trips on flat roads and gentle slopes – local shopping, a short commute or weekend cycle-track rides. The steel frame brings the weight to 14.3 kg, so if you often carry the bike up and down stairs or want a lighter bike, consider the aluminium Dahon KBA061 Super Light 20" Folding Bike (officially the Dahon Hit, 12.06 kg). Riders over the 105 kg limit or outside 150–180 cm should choose another Dahon model.
Rear rack and mudguards as standard
Official photos of every colour show the Dream D6 with a rear rack and front and rear mudguards, so there is nothing extra to fit for daily riding. Fittings may vary between production batches; please contact us before ordering if you need to confirm.
Shimano 6-speed twist shifting
The official detail photos show a Shimano twist shifter and Shimano rear derailleur – twist the grip to change gear. Six speeds cover flat roads and gentle slopes, and the controls are simple for riders new to geared bikes. The official photos also show V-brakes front and rear.
High-carbon steel frame, 105 kg maximum load
Dahon lists a 105 kg maximum load and a recommended rider height of 150–180 cm for the Dream D6. The steel frame is heavier than aluminium, but the clear official load figure makes it easy to check whether it suits you.

Jollymap's advice
If you are on a budget, ride short and mostly flat routes and want a rack and mudguards, the Dream D6 is a practical choice; if you often carry the bike up stairs, a lighter aluminium folder will be easier.

FAQ
How much does the Dahon Dream D6 weigh?
14.3 kg, as published by Dahon Hong Kong. Actual weight may vary slightly by production batch and measuring tool.
What is the Dahon Dream D6's maximum load and rider height?
The maximum load is 105 kg, and Dahon recommends it for riders 150–180 cm tall. If you are over 105 kg or outside that height range, choose another Dahon model.
What is the difference between HAT060 and HAT061?
Dahon Hong Kong lists HAT060 and HAT061 on the same "DREAM D6" product page with the same specs, and does not describe any difference. This HAT061 page is red only; for other colours, see the Dream D6 HAT060. Please contact us before ordering if you need to confirm batch or fittings.
Dahon Dream D6 vs Hit D6: what is the difference?
Both are 20-inch, 6-speed bikes. The Dream D6 has a high-carbon steel frame, weighs 14.3 kg with a 105 kg maximum load, and the official photos show a rear rack and mudguards; the Dahon Hit (KBA061) has an aluminium frame and weighs 12.06 kg. Choose the Dream D6 for a rack, mudguards and a published weight limit, the Hit for a lighter bike.
Is the Dahon Dream D6 good for beginners?
Yes. It uses simple 6-speed twist shifting, and Jollymap's Dahon buying guide lists it as an entry option for beginners on a budget.
Can I take the Dahon Dream D6 on the MTR or a bus?
Not necessarily. Based on the official folded size (80 × 28 × 65 cm), the three sides add up to about 173 cm, over the MTR limit of 170 cm for the total length, width and height of luggage. Franchised buses generally only allow items within 5 kg and 0.1 cubic metres (Public Bus Services Regulations, Cap. 230A, section 14), and minibuses are not guaranteed. Please check the latest rules with the MTR or bus operator before you travel.
Does a high-carbon steel frame rust? How should I look after it in humid Hong Kong?
If the paint on a high-carbon steel frame is damaged, it can rust in humid air. Check the frame regularly for chips or scratches, wipe the frame and chain dry after riding in the rain, and store the bike somewhere dry rather than outdoors for long periods.
Where can I buy the Dahon Dream D6 in Hong Kong?
It is available at the Jollymap online shop and store. To confirm colours or batch fittings before ordering, chat with us online or message our Facebook page.
