Hi fellow riders,
Anyone currently using FnHon or Rhine frame? Would like too seek opinions from existing users or sifus who has modified one. Ideally I would like a Tern or Dahon frameset too but after after looking around, really not many choices except the 2 above which seems to be quite popular in china/thailand.
How are the quality of the FnHon/Rhine frame and durability of the folding mechanism compared to entry level brands from china such as Trinx,XDS,GTA...? On par or worse? Appreciate any feedbacks. Cheers

heh... u dono how i felt last nite when i cycled about 4km with her... on a flat road, i am at max 7th gear and pedalling furiously. she easily overtakes me on her 16th gear while on less than half cadence of what i was doing and then left me about a hundred metres before stopping to wait for me at the traffic light... so relaxed yet faster!

this morning she pijak kaw me saying "it's not the gearing dear, it's your leg power..." aiyak kena one tight slap liao... hahah.
