The Dahon XAA673M is a folding bike with 26-inch wheels, 27 speeds and an aluminium frame, so it rolls on the same wheel size as a typical mountain bike yet folds to fit a car boot or a corner at home. Dahon Hong Kong lists it at 14.3 kg with a 105 kg maximum load, and it comes with a suspension fork, making it a good fit for riders who want big-wheel stability but still need to fold the bike away.

What Problem Does It Solve?
Many people like folding bikes because they save space, but most folders use small 16- to 20-inch wheels. New riders often need time to get used to the steering, handling and stability, and small wheels feel bumpier on uneven ground. The XAA673M uses the same 26-inch wheel size as a typical mountain bike, plus a suspension fork, so it rides more like a full-size bike. When you are done, fold it and put it in the car boot or a corner at home.
Who Is It For?
The XAA673M suits riders who want a big-wheel bike for cycle tracks and gravel paths but have no room to keep a full-size bike, or who want to carry a bike in the car boot to ride in different places. The 27-speed range also helps on hills.
It is not recommended for commuters who need to take the bike on the MTR or buses often (the folded size exceeds the MTR luggage limit; see the FAQ below), or for riders who value low weight and carry the bike up stairs regularly (14.3 kg is heavier than many 16- to 20-inch folders). These riders may prefer a 16- or 20-inch Dahon.
26-inch wheels: stability close to a regular bike
Small wheels are light, but potholes and stones affect them more. 26-inch wheels are the same size as a typical mountain bike's, so stability and rollover feel closer to a regular bike, ideal if you do not want to adapt to small-wheel handling.
Suspension fork and disc brakes
Dahon's official product photos show a suspension fork and disc rotors. The fork softens vibration through the bars on rough surfaces.
27-speed gearing
27 speeds give a wide gear range: cruise in a harder gear on the flat and shift to an easier one on climbs.
Folds to fit a car boot
The frame folds in the middle, so the bike becomes smaller than a non-folding 26-inch bike and fits a car boot or a corner at home. Because the wheels are large, it is still bigger than a 16- or 20-inch folder when folded, so measure your storage space before ordering.

Jollymap Recommends
The XAA673M's strength is the stability of its big wheels. If you mainly drive your bike to the countryside or a cycle track, it is easier to get used to than a small-wheel folder. If you need to take the bike on public transport every day, a 16- to 20-inch folder is the better choice. Not sure whether it suits your height, your car boot or your storage space? Before ordering, chat with us or message our Facebook page with your height and the size of the space.

FAQ
What kind of bike is the Dahon XAA673M?
It is a folding bike with 26-inch wheels. The wheels are the same size as a typical mountain bike's, and it has a suspension fork, 27 speeds and disc brakes. The frame folds in the middle, so it suits riders who want a big-wheel ride but still need to store the bike compactly.
How heavy is the Dahon XAA673M and what is its maximum load?
It weighs 14.3 kg and the maximum load is 105 kg (source: Dahon Hong Kong). That is heavier than many 16- to 20-inch folders, so think it through if you often carry the bike up stairs.
Can I take the folded Dahon XAA673M on the MTR?
By the official folded size, it exceeds the MTR luggage limit. MTR rules say the length, width and height of luggage must not add up to more than 170 cm, while the two folded sizes listed by Dahon Hong Kong add up to about 214.5 cm and 235 cm. On franchised buses, Regulation 14 of the Public Bus Services Regulations (Cap. 230A) only allows free carriage of items up to 5 kg and 0.1 cubic metres, which a folding bike usually exceeds. This bike is better transported by car.
Does the Dahon XAA673M have suspension?
Yes, at the front. Dahon's official product photos show a suspension fork, which reduces vibration on rough surfaces; there is no rear suspension.
What is the difference between a 26-inch and a 20-inch folding bike?
The main differences are the stability that comes with wheel size, plus weight and folded size. Within Dahon, the XAA673M (26-inch) weighs 14.3 kg, while the 20-inch Dahon K One FKA091 weighs about 12.08 kg. Big wheels ride more like a regular bike; small wheels are lighter and fold smaller.
What rider height does the Dahon XAA673M suit?
Dahon Hong Kong does not list a recommended rider height. The bike uses 26-inch wheels and is close in size to a typical mountain bike; tell us your height before ordering and we will help you check the fit.
