lim bicycle in penang quote me at 900...

I thing in kl between...900-970..

wahhh...15% discount...they give you on the sport arrr...


when I got mine I have to nego untill the shop uncle give 15% discount...
I thought I utung d...mana tau...-10%-15% seem like a standard practice for must bike shop...

tried it...
different from conventional foldie...
feels like mini velo...FAST...
must importance thing...can fold...

yes...
must of the smaller ah pak shop will be more friendlier than the big ones...
but than again... lim bicycle is more friendlier compare to others...
most of them will be "friendlier" to you when you buy expansive bike or they know you are in the category of "modifier"...

like chin aik...they are the sole agent for dahon and tern in penang...
what to do...the uncle there have an attitude...
wait till you asked him to install a mud guard...
when I install my uno...waahhh lllaauu...he just ketuk the fender without loosening the screws...
I told him to be more gentle...he reply me by asking me if the bike can feel pain or only human can...

my reaction than...

waaaaa...after reading through the article...

100% sufficient...I comply with what you said...

disc vs V brakes...

tooo lazy to think... just cut and paste from internet...

"Nobody makes a bike with really good v-brakes anymore. By the time you get to the good quality bikes, they all have disc brakes. This leads to the mistaken impression that v-brakes don't have as much stopping power as disc brakes. Actually, your stopping power is only as good as the amount of traction your tire can generate, and any top level v-brake can generate enough stopping power to lock up the wheel, as can any decent disc brake. However, entry level cable operated disc brakes are no better, perhaps not even as good as high end v-brakes. Disc brakes do have an advantage in the wet, but a good set of v-brakes will be quite a bit lighter than entry level disc brakes. Usually when a bike comes in versions with and without disc brakes, the upgrade is well worth the money spent. It could cost 3-4 times as much to upgrade at a later date. Often the disc brake package includes other component upgrades as well. I would spend the extra money for the disc brakes, the v-brakes on the cheaper model are probably not all that good, and you might regret not buying the disc brake model later"

than again...foldie with 20" wheels...hardly any difference...unless you used hydraulic disc brake...
know your bike...as a coaster brake foldie rider...I crash my bike 3 times since I got it 3 weeks ago...until recent days I manage to learn how to stop...
now I dun crash anymore...
