NOTE:
While adjusting a loose hinge, slowly turn in
1/16 increments. Failure to
effectively adjust the
hinge could result in the hinge being too tight
or loose.
WARNING:
Failure to correctly tighten the frame latch
can lead to damage to the bicycle or injury
to the rider. Do NOT cycle with a loose
frame hinge.
WARNING:
If you are unsure of how to make
proper adjustments to your bicycle,
seek a qualified bicycle technician for
professional advice on adjustments.
Frame Latch
Dahon uses several different frame hinges on its
bikes. Check your bike to see which instructions
are applicable to you.
The ViseGrip™ Hinge (also applies to the
Vybe frame hinges)
Tools Needed: • 10 mm wrench
• 6 mm Allen key
FRAME HINGE CLOSED
FRAME HINGE OPEN
The most important part of a folding bicycle is frame
hinge. Special care should be taken to check that the
hinge is adjusted correctly before each ride.
Use a 6mm wrench, an adjustable wrench or small
pliers to tighten or loosen the hinge. Adjust the hinge
bolt for the hinge to open and close with the correct
force: 49-59 Nm for aluminum frames and 29-59 Nm
for steel frames.
Your frame hinge will need occasional adjustments
from time to time. If the hinge ever becomes too
loose it may need to be adjusted. Properly adjusting
the hinge will eliminate movement or looseness.
By tightening the hinge it will allow a strong seal,
which will make the frame feel solid when closed.
Facing the hinge head-on, turn the
hinge latch bolt upwards.
LOOSEN:
Facing the hinge head-on, turn the
hinge latch bolt downwards.
