Does anyone have those mud guard accessories installed onto their foldies? will the additional part affect the folding? I am thinking of installing one, apart from acting as a protection to my baju, it will also make the bike look more garang
 Sample image as below. Note: not my bike.  |

QUOTE(dannygoh @ Sep 2 2013, 05:55 PM) Which is the best for newbie? Where to get it? Newbie here too. I just got my hands on the Louis Garneau LSG-POP about a month ago. Light ride, smooth shifting, no complains so far. Once you get your hands onto a foldie, you will somehow or rather start putting on "make ups" for your 2-wheeler. Good entry level foldie i would say.  |

I would like to ask if anyone is using a T6 or U2 LED headlamp for your foldies?
Appreciate if any of the sifu here can share comments and also the source of the product. I know there are tonnes of them available on the internet, especially from taobao.com, the only thing is which one is reliable. Appreciate all your feedbacks. Thanks a bunch! |

QUOTE(H2D @ Sep 12 2013, 03:02 PM) great! I actually prefer right rides which is why I am looking for a bicycle headlamp and not a torch. But I do day rides too. My concern of getting a headlamp is that: how much will the difference be if I were to get one with 200 lumens vs those 1200 lumens? I know the power output is different hence the difference of lumens. But does the lumens affect the range throw of the lights? I mean, it would be good to get one with wide spill as well as a longer range. these days most stuff r china made.. so it is good to check the chinese forums... now, tons of light from china, and the budget ones have acceptable quality liao.. i saw ultrafire/uranusfire on tb, seems acceptable enough the quality, price is really tempting...  i think for normal street riding... 200lumen is good enuff, get one with higher rating, but use 200lumen for riding. choose one with a large/wide 'spill', if u dun ride a lot at night, might consider a flash light, so u can use it off the bike. but bike light with batt pack will last longer than flash light with single batt. dun worry about the batt pack, u can get it easily here. there is a company at amcorp tower pj, which specialised in batt, they can spot weld batts and custom make batt packs.. make sure the charger accepts 220v ++. i believe u can find lots of info here in this chinese forum for starters... http://www.shoudian.org/forum.php I had my eyes on Knog Blinder Road 2, just that the price is quite high, and the running time is pretty low for a headlamp. My budget for this *fingers crossed* will hopefully within a RM100 range, which after looking at various posts on TB, ebay, etc, is very much unlikely as those products are all over RM100.  |

QUOTE(2kia @ Sep 12 2013, 07:00 PM) ride to town with friends to jalan2 cari makan indeed, n also ride to play football during the weekends cuz i find it hard to give up one over the other Mind to share some images and also whre did you get the headlamp from? Many many thanks in advance! u know, i was really keen on getting a mtb but as per the mtb thread, for rm2000 n less just choose the bike colour u like, components etc r not up to par for real mtbiking etc yada yada yada so i figure i'd save the money n get a foldie instead n see if i even like cycling.. n guess what, i nvr check out mtb again after that! glad i got my foldie instead of mtb, imagine a mtb with mudguard n all the accessories that would make it look..sissy? u can get the china-made one for about rm100-130 at bbs i just bought 1 recently n it's the newer version i think, where there's a cap for u to tighten n secure the cables between headlight n the battery pack a heads up, it dsnt fold as compact as the other so u might find it a bit less convenient to lug around |

I had this in mind for some time now.
How do I ride from Kelana Jaya to Jalan Raja Chulan? I know the motorists lane starts right after the butterfly bridge before Sungai Way, but it ends around Mid Valley right? So where should I go after that? Do i still ride along Federal Highway or is there anywhere that I can turn into? Appreciate your guidance.  |
