Hi all,
I receive the offer below, mind to give any advice on my first foldie?
1, Oscar imagine RM480
2, TXC 8 RM 500
3, Morgan F5.0 RM 550

The shopkeeper said Morgan has better quality compared with txc8 because it has disc brake. How do you think?

when u cycle, pay attention to ur feet n where u apply the force,

put force directly on top of the spindle and close to inside of the crank,

align n place ur feet properly...

dun go n put force on the edge of the pedal ( outside)..

then most likely u won't break the plastic folding pedal..

cycle properly la..  laugh.gif

This bike shop mainly sell road bike and MTB. Only two foldie available. I went to three shop around PJ today. This shop selling Wellgo, and two other shop selling xpedo and speedgear. So doesn't really able to compare. Because I heard more about Wellgo. So I go for Wellgo lo. And it is also cheaper compare the other two brand.

I like the boss very much. Friendly uncle. Saw a lot of customer come to his shop and chit chat with him like really good friend. I believed the uncle ride bicycle too and definitely more fit and ride better than me.

Saw a lot of accesories. Doesn't really know the price of each item whether it is cheaper or not. But every customer who go he give discount one. It seems to me(personal feel), the item sell in this shop are more than USJcycle. UsJcycle seems smaller shop than this.

They sell frame and one customer bought the frame and pasang in the shop, so I think the shop should got everything to built a bike.

It seems convenient to have this as this pedal can't fold. Did they sell only that QRD?

Just to share a bad service bicycle shop i encountered at sg. way pj. The shop is called Kedai Basikal Fook Sang. Service is bad and the staff attitude is mediocre. Their price also is more expensive than others. I swear i will never go there again. vmad.gif

you ask them to let you try lah. there are 2 demo bike with different handlebars. ask them to ride with you lah.

And the bikes are going, going, going... last time I was there (about 3 weeks ago) 3 bikes are sold...

those who are already using foldable bikes for a few years will know what is the difference. once you try the demo bike, you can then see the difference, the stability and the compact folding ... but the price, ah ...!

but what you get is a bike that will last and last.. solve traffic and parking problems... etc
see:-

so those who have the money, no problem la
