Which one is heavier: between 1 kg of nail and 1 kg of cotton? smaller does not equals to lighter, bigger does not equal to heavier. Once I was window shopping, and the owner asked me 'how many people fold their folding bike in their house?' 'A few only' he said. Weight is an issue that will never dies.......
I fold to bring into house (condo got limited space) and i fold to bring into lift and room. At least 5 days a week. lol.
When I park my foldie in the motorbike parking area, I do take the pedals off and keep them with me in the office... And I sometimes do take the pedals off when the bike is parked outside Sundry shops while I get my stuff. So that it's not so easy to just take it and cycle away.
Why dont just carry into office? You can create an awareness of cycling to work is good.
sayang? well, a bike is for riding, so I don't keep it sitting pretty in the house. I do use the XDS and the Tern depending on mood. H2D, what about some photos of your bike or bikes? Seldom see you post any of yours.. you have a mini velo, right?
i think the word "sayang" means how can you leave your foldie out of your sight. Your Tern wheel so nice, cool handlebar, etc. that could attract ppl to steal. If u leave it outside office from 8am to 5pm everyday, one day it will be missing as people know your routine.
Even my cheapo UGO i also dare not to park at the place out of my sight.. haha
Yesterday this was where I parked my Tern bike in KL office... then later found out got some scratches... got some ppl try to lift it up and test this and test that
Do you cycle to your workplace during weekday? I only dare to do it on Saturdays, when traffic is lesser than usual. This morning I cycled from USJ12 to USJ4 Shell station nearby restaurant to have breakfast, there are still quite some anxious cars on the road. I thought school holidays things will get better haha
depending on what time you cycle. I start cycling as early as 6am.
it is not necessary to change from v brakes to disc brakes for a bike like the ugo... the ori v brake most likely won't fail... only the brake pads will worn out, that is if u cycle a lot for mebe a year or two..?
ugo fork don't have disc brake mount? so u need fork that has one.
the chain stay has disc brake mount? how? wana weld ?
the ori hubs are not disc brake ready?, need to get new hubs or new wheel set....
such major change, better just stick to stock brake for basic leisure and commuting..
I'm still new in this bike world. I want to buy a folding bike that cost RM1k below. Mostly to ride at road. I like the Hummer 26" because it has big tyre. Is it really worth the money since it is made from china. Really afraid if it is just very lousy.
If not I would consider buying the 20" instead. Maybe Dahon?
It will never go wrong if u wanna get dahon or tern.. drop by to several shops and test out..

I rather go for the Raleigh Ugo between the 2. The Raleigh Ugo looks and feels more stronger.
