so Sifu. trinx win over folding right can be smaller. sure need to test ? but im not pro to check everything fake ot not..any guide to check original one? so far this 2 are the one i like..but need to find out pro and cons

wow what a nice colour. this one high end 1?

h2d, Thanks for your valuable info. The reason i am looking at it compared to Dash is the conventional fold it has. The design looks a bit old compared to Vector, which could be doubled the price i guess? Of coz components used are different which i acknowledged

welcome
Actually the curve design is older .
N u find many cap ayam copied the curve frame.
This visc style only visc has it.

As requested:-



This is the clamp. Some of the bikes I looked at had seat posts which wouldn't allow this to be attached. For example triangle fork (not sure if that's the right name) and the brake line attached to the seat post. The seat has hooks which go into those holes on the right (front of seat).



The clamp is attached using normal alan key, can tighten/loosen yourself. It's not VERY strong against side-to-side rotation, but doesn't slide up and down which is the main thing.



The seat. Comes with a bit of padding, which is really thin. Not a big deal for me. You can see the restraining belt clearly here. It goes over the head, which may be a bit inconvenient.



Adjustable foot rests (took me 2 rides to realize these were adjustable) via screws at the back.



This is the hooks at the back which go into the clamp.

Now that I look at it again I think the back seat works exactly the same way, just the hooks come out front rather than back. Not sure if can convert, but I'll try one day. Anyway the shop I mentioned sells front and back seats of this type, both same price.

Java Fit has thinner tyres and a full alloy frame compared to the Trinx so it should be lighter.
Component wise, Java has brakes from reputable brand (Avid BB5) but i think the rest are pretty much the same, maybe better wheelset as well (WTB rim i think) and cabling (Jagwire)

The reason the shop said Trinx is best value is because u get a lot of decent components for RM 8xx. Other than the brakes and wheels the other major components are pretty much Shimano or Prowheel usual stuffs on par with the Java

Now i suddenly dunno why would Java be selling for 1.6k already lol. Trinx used to be crap but the recent models come with OK components.

They're all made in China btw so no difference with that LOL, just that Java Fit is supposedly "designed in Italy"

free, today last day... then need to pay...

that one, seller just upgraded the parts..

nothing is fake la..

lousy parts got la,

thts y need to make deal with taukey,

if got noise, u wana change bike tht have no noise..

tht's the deal...

u already noe all the pros n cons.. so decide...

wow, really thank you so much for sharing this.

Look quite nice for RM90, will definitely go get this

But maybe have to wait my baby older by another 2-3 months.

Wow~~

Any recommendation for a baby helmet which would fit a 45 cm head? Those I can find on lelong.com.my are really expensive (and say like 46-56 cm, which is scarily large variance to me), and most of the bicyclebuysell links don't state size.

Any one know where can i find Schwalbe Big Ben in KL?

Thanks.

lerun is swabe dist, but mostlikely they oni have big apple...

Morning Sifu's, am into MTB and now my wife and kids are keen to join. targeting either new Trinx or used Dahon/java bike.

yesterday was at a shop and would like to seek sifu's advice on foldies as could not understand a couple of things.

1. Are the market foldies have the same size, size refer to from seatpost to handlebar distant
2. my daughter height 4 ft, 3 inch, is there shorter seatpost for sale.
3. are there any readily available front steerer which can purchase at shorter length (to fit my daughter height).

Tks in advance for enlightment.

Reporting in from Perlis...

Did a 55km to Kaki Bukit/Gua Kelam two weekends ago, a 20km on Saturday and 27km on Sunday I love my bike
