hohohohho.... see ya tomorrow

hey everyone.
i wannat ask, is it foldie kinda uncomfortable compare to mtb?
my weight around 95 ~ 97 around 172cm, is foldie suit me ? cuz i planning to get a foldie which is convenience to me

hi anti..

I weight more or less as you (at 95kg) and I have a jamis durango and a dahon uno...
I rode more on my uno that my mtb...as I go around town on my daily chores...
the main things is that it folds...making it more convince for me...
the riding position is different from mtb as it give you a more up right riding position and it's more comfy...
as for saddle...invest in a good 1 or it will be a pain in the ASS...
it's my 1st foldie and when I bought it...I do have concern about the durability of the bike...
after comparing and doing a lot of researching...I narrow down to dahon uno and speed p8...
(dahon have life time warranty on frame when you register your bike online)...
buy those foldie from a more reputable company that state the foldie max load...as we are well weighted person...
try out the foldie in your local bike shop...compared...
pick 1 that suite your current budget...or buy a good 1 and stick to it...you would not regret it...

myak...

anybody riding today?? been raining all night at penang but thank God it has stopped when I woke up so here's to car-free mrng ride at the heart of Georgetown!

today everyone rest..... coz yesterday everyone had a great ride

Actually a foldie is more comfortable to ride than a mountain bike. You can actually ride seating yourself upright. Wheels are smaller so less resistance, easy to upkeep but slower lah! Anyway we are not racing anywhere. I am hovering between 98 kg to 103 kg and I have been riding my Dahon Eco C7 for the past year! No problems whatsoever.

at 172cm a foldie shld be alright, wouldnt feel too crampy

perhaps u can get one with adjustable stem

i'm nvr ever gonna ride around town on a sunday mrng again, it's soooo hot n crowded!

me n my friends didnt even stop at 1 artistic painting etc, let alone to take picture

guess the fun factor isnt there when u're not a tourist

My wife & I will be shooting up to Penang next Friday to join the CFAL5.

Looking forward to cycling around town..

Guys.. I am new, and plan to buy a folding bike..

Around 1k, saw some fold brand reabok at midvalley which only cost less then 1k..

even found so call hummer at internet only rm880? are those real?

Any choice for within 1k? and where can get a cheaper price? i stay in sri petaling

LOUIS GARNEAU LGS Pop from 950-1050
Dr. Hon VYBE C7S from 950-980
Dahon ECO from 750-850
Raleigh UGO from 750-850

Confession: Malas mode <ON>

What pressure is ideal for tires? Should I pump up to the max capacity as imprinted on the side of the tire wall?

use that as a guideline ...

on road - go max as recommended
if if bumpy then reduce a little bit

if off road or hard pack trail u let go even more ...

rite guys?

All the foldies are really making use of the bikes to the max! Ride here, ride there. Every weekend oso got event.

Can bring on Train, bus, LRT, car boot, car seat, even can put my folded bike in my small MYVI's small tiny boot.

Its no wonder that foldables are getting popular.
