no idea regarding the best price but u can't go wrong with this bike

u're probably better off with a 20" folding bike like tern/dahon/raleigh/oyama/trinx etc

read the excellent 1st page for more info about folding bike

got one or two or more members here who owns the china hummer.
check them out.

price is cheaper elsewhere.

bigger wheels rides better than small wheels, if this kind of folding suits you...

Hi,
I would like to ask
Which will be better?
Tern Link D8 or Dahon Dash P18?

I own it.

So far it is a folding bike that not looks like a folding bike. Folds (save space) but not that transportable if you want to bring them into lrt during rush hours. Not that light and not that heavy (since it is aluminium). You don't have to buy extra carrier if you plan on bringing the bike onto your car. You can place them inside the car.

Everything else is just like Mountain Bikes, in terms of ride and feel. Since it is a full sized bike, upgrade options are plentiful. As per current setup, i didn't upgrade much of the gearing, just adding some 'must have' stuff like blinkers. Note that the default location of the water bottle is just behind your front wheel, I bought an adapter to place it on the handlebar - behind wheel waterbottle will add some other flavor eg dust, sand or mud.

What else can i say? Front fork suspension's play is about 10cm or so, will add some comfort to your ride. It is adjustable to lock/unlock.

Note that this is not the real Montague Paratrooper. The real Montague will cost you maybe 2k up to 3k?

Apart from the chain-fall-off issues (which is common to all bikes - fixed by re-tuned) i didn't have any issues on the bike.

the difference is very obvious.....

dahon lock jaw frame, "china domestic" variant


Escape D16






Cheetah P18




frame n fork for RMB 2K

Great bikes from Dahon! Mini velo can save your energy and go very fast due to the ride quality, just like a normal road bike feel.

sleek! but thin tyre u will feel all the bump...

phew, finally have time to check here!

really wanted to ride badly today as it's my off day but injured my thigh yday during futsal

btw guys, i recently swapped the neos RD for the Acera one n realized that my chain is skipping every 2 full interval, be it back pedaling or normal riding.. any idea why..?

I think the shifter cable needs adjustments. Maybe you can twist your barrel adjuster a turn or two.

Hi sifus, just a quick question which is better? Disc brakes or the normal U brakes? Not sure what's it called

nowadays.. disc brake is the norm lo.....
road bike manufacturers are starting to use disc brake liao....

Thanks!! I saw this at the shop earlier.. The owner recommended this compared to Raleigh Ugo which he is selling as well..

Raleigh at rm750
Speed gear at rm700

He said this is also not bad. Any inputs?



Attached thumbnail(s)

from the pic, finishing looks ok....

u compare both the bikes, if everything looks n feel the same..., then
this bike have makat.. +1, rear rack +1, disc brake +1....

ugo have makat n rear rack?

u wana add RM100-150, for 16 speed trinx??
