Enter the Flo..

The Flo is a full-sized mountain bike that comes with its own carrying case

Since it was backordered, only two are available for the Malaysian market.. 
I was chatting with Le Run Industry's Chanson Lau who told me that two Dahon Flo mountain bike had made it into Malaysia.
A post by Rodalink's Jimmy Tan on Facebook confirmed the existence of this fabulous high-end super extreme bike. 
This afternoon, I had a face-to-face with the Flo and its one amazing piece of engineering.
For 2011, the  bike has been upgraded with the lightweight Ashima disk brakes.
It uses a SRAM X-9 groupset and if I were to hit the trail, the Dahon Flo would be a good choice.
All good said and done, the 2011 Flos that are now on display at Rodalink Desa Hartamas and Bangsar are not the first to make it into the country.
At least one was sold at a staggering price tag of RM12K a pop!
This time round, Rodalink had adjusted to the price due to the lower US Dollar.
The pricetag for the 2011 Dahon Flo is around RM9K.
