1st complaint from my buddy Hummer Foldie (China made), the main frame hinge easily get loose. Need to regularly tighten before/after each trip.

can as long as there is $$$...

ok on the seriousnote, your is 7 speed 8speed or 9 speed? as the 7 speed mostly use cog type while some 8 speed is cog or cassette (depend on brand) type and 9 speed is cassette type. then got to get new wheelset that is not so cheap here in bolehland... also check whether your fork and frame can accept bigger wheel or not..
ur bike use caliper or v-brake or disc brake? if v-brake it will be cheaper to change. if caliper brake hen need to get long reach type which is ab it hard to get these day, if disc brake then erm err not sure about the availability bcoz never check..

my oyama use 451 profile wheel with caliper brake, try to change but it cost to much so i stick to 451..

if u r not tht heavy try lower the pressure a bit...

451 tyres ... most are skinny type...

to use 406 depends on if u wana spend the $$$ n effort n time... just like mbax stated...

How to decide tyre pressure? I been reading around that higher pressure means easier but more bumpy ride. If I'm quite heavy (actually, me + baby) means need higher pressure to 'tahan' the weight? As long as don't exceed the limit written on tyre should be fine right?

yes correct...

Hehe
Let's wait and see.
My jelly is not from the hummer bike. It is the feeling toward MTB. Feel wanna own a MTB. But tahan first tahan first. Deep breath deep deep breath. Hehe.

Guys, have a question in my mind:

My raleigh ugo punya shifter problematic liao. when lowering gearing it doesnt click into place. for example, from gear 6 i shift up to 4, but the shifter will slide back down all the way to 7. i had to shift all the way up to 1 and then only click by click get down to 4. it has been tightened back at the shop before but sadly it didnt last long and now this problem came back.

this is how the shifter looks like :

google says this is shimano model TX30 Tourney.

i am wondering if i can change the whole shifter assembly to another model instead. i like those EZ shifter aka rapidfire type and this shimano altus m310 shifter caught my eye


also a 7-speed shifter. will it be a direct swap without issue?

Hi, dont mind me asking what's the crank size of the MONGOOSE?

Please recommend folding bike for my leisure ride in taman.
My budget is RM1500 max.

What size i dont know,but surely smaller than 46t on my vybe..still in consideration wanna sell or not the mongoose...adoi!

If I am from PJ how should I go there? Where should I park my car? Or I should ride LRT go there?
First time join the KL CFM. Just register the 14 KM one, scare not fit for the 21KM.
