Special requested this bike late 2008, and waited a month or so for it to arrive.
It's a great, **compact ** bike. The Dahon MUP8 was purchased at over 800,000 KRW - 8 speed bike, with an integrated air pump into the seat. Pull out the seat post and it's an air pump.

It has great reviews and personally, it's been the most versatile, urban commuter bike for me:
It takes seconds to fold, and I've brought it into gyms, yoga studios, bars, cafes, grocery stores, and a few times in the subway in Seoul. It got me to work early/on time every day, and it's also perfect for long rides along the Han River.

I leave it folded under my table or at the entrance of my officetel/apt. The Dahon bike folds down to the size of a suitcase.

It was bought at over 800,000 KRW, and is sold at around the same price in Korea:

I'm selling it for 400,000 KRW.

*Apparently, according to online reviews, it's a one-size-fits-all; people as tall as 6 ft. (182 cm) can ride it with ease.



I'm having trouble shipping it (had every intention to bike around D.C.), and I'm leaving the country, so please reply as soon as possible. Serious buyers (bike commuters or bike enthusiasts!) only. I'm hesitant to let this go, as I had the intention of using it to commute in the States.


Or if anyone knows of an affordable way to ship this to the States, that would be *highly* appreciated!!

Thanks!
