Dear all sifus, I'm planning to buy two folding bikes for my wife and myself.

My budget around RM500 per bike. We are both newbie.
Is there any recommendation? Which shop should I go to?

Thanks

My Link D8 now is Link D10 blush.gif

Changed the below, in case anyone ask:
- Litepro Demon TT Bullhorn
- Used Dura Ace 7800 Brake Shifter lever
- SRAM PG1070 11-28T 10s sprocket
- Microshift Arsis RD
- Litepro RD hanger
- Kore Seatpost
- Vertu saddle
- Wellgo QR pedal
- Litepro stem

Currently brake system is not as good due to pull ratio of brake level and V brake incompatibility. I can either used travel agent or change to 451 wheelset and calliper brake altogether. Looking at it, I might opt for latter. rclxm9.gif

Sekian terima kasih

Yah, you can actually do that and get away with it but my bike was brand new.  I actually don't mind paying Rm50 for the tax.  What really piss me off is Airasia in HK.  I bought 75 kg luggage knowing I am carrying my bike back.  But during luggage drop, they say bicycle is sports equipment and need to buy separate sports equipment luggage for HK$300 for 20kg!!!  I say already have 75 kg luggage but they say those are for normal luggage. 

Just be careful if you carry bicycle when using airasia as you need to buy separate luggage for it.
