unless there is play in the headset (check by applying the front brake and rocking the bike back and forth) you will feel it rock if not it's just a matter of getting used to it.
I ride a Trek 6.9 and have had spokes break for no apparent reason. Most of the time the spoke will break from over tightening on initial installation or just plain fatigue. Replacing the spoke is fairly straight forward. Remove the wheel from the bike and remove the tire. Remove the protective tape on the inside of the wheel to gain access to the spoke nut. After replacing the spoke you must make sure the wheel is true. If you do not have a set up for this, reassemble the wheel with the new spoke and take the assembly to your nearest bike store. They should have the equipment to true up your wheel assembly
Construct shims from aluminum (soda / cola) cans with scissors. Be careful not to cut yourself, sheared aluminum is very sharp. After you have cut a wide strip of aluminum, wrap it around the handlebar and put it between the handlebar and the clamps. This will increase the diameter of the handlebar and allow your clips to exert more pressure on the handlebars making them tighter. Try not to leave any aluminum exposed after fixing it; it's sharp.
Here is one manual:http://files.dahon.com/support/manuals/2009/2009_16inch_20inch_fold_unfold_guide.pdf Here is a much more detailed manual:http://files.dahon.com/support/manuals/2009/2009_dahon_user_manual_en.pdf It looks to me as if the handle bar stem has to be up high enough so that the end of the stem will clear the fold when you fold it down. Otherwise the stem will be down inside the bike and it won't be able to fold. If that makes any sense.The better manual has good pictures and diagrams and explains the locking mechanisms a lot better. Please rate me if this helps.
Hello, I have a Dahon XP which is similar to yours and to undo a wheel is very simple, because the wheels have a quick release lever on the right side of the axle going through the center of each wheel hub. Simply grab the lever and pull it open to take the wheel out, for example if you want to change a flat tire.
yes
the unit is not fit for the purpose and is in fact dangerous to ride as the seat bolt failure could cause you to loose control
items that you should be aware of that may affect your claim
1-- your mass ( folding bikes are designed with a mass limit for the user)
2 --speed limit
3--how you transport the unit
At best you can ask for a refund of you money as there is no warranty limit on design faults and there is in consumer law , that there is an expectation that the unit will last well past the warranty period
I suggest a talk with a lawyer as to the best way to get a result from the manufacturer
It's really no different than other bikes, but extremely difficult to explain in words, let alone when you include no info as to whether the chain goes through a derailleur, which changes the procedure. It should not be difficult to find someone locally who is able to show you how to do such a basic procedure.

Here's how to repair a broken shifter toe peg on a motorcycle. The shifter toe peg on my Buell Cyclone was broken off almost completely flush with the shift lever, and the factory used thread locker when they installed it, so the only way to get it out was with an easy out bolt extractor, which is a special drill bit. First I drill a good-sized hole in the middle of the shifter peg bolt, Thia is the most important step. I made sure the hole was in the center of the bolt so I didn't damage the threads on the gear shift lever. Then I put the easy out in the drill, set it to reverse, and it pulled the old broken bolt out. Then I cleaned out the threads in the shift lever and installed the new shifter toe peg using thread locker. Buell recommends using red Loctite. On my Harley Davidson FXR I installed a new shifter toe peg without using thread lock, and it unscrewed itself and fell of after a few weeks of riding. You definitely want to use some type of thread locker. There are no torque specs for putting the new motorcycle shifter toe peg on. Buell just says tighten it until snug. If you have ever crashed your motorcycle, than you've had to deal with this problem from the crash damage. I hope this video helps get you back on the road.
