Allegro Review
"...a regular high-performance bike. The two-part steel frame was designed by cycling icon Tom Ritchey with a simple, virtually invisible tube-within-a-tube locking mechanism. Has a solid feel, no creaking. The 19-pound bike is ideal for triathletes and competitive racers." Read more."

Vitesse Review
"... the Vitesse is more or less in a class of it's own. Is it worth £299? We're joking of course. The Vitesse would be a reasonable buy at £399, but knock £100 off and the opposition is left reeling. Dahon is on to a winner."
