just lucky lah they all active in community,just join lah together we unite cool2.gif

anyway,
if upgrading ur gear set few setup might consider if upgrading to 9speed and above casette
wheelset hub
since u said previously ur bike is 6speed,its a must to change ur hub or got bigger budget better switch whole wheelset

since u said u wanna get 8speed,
the budget is not that much coz casette for 6 to 8 speed are lock type (1whole casette system) and 8 to 11 speed are casette type and can change the ratio

few items to consider to change if ur bike only 6speed.this is maybe the lowest tight budget for upgrading
but if ur on more tight budget,
i suggest u change the crank only lah.shifter and fd no need lah,coz u can manually stand ur bike and pick the chain and drop to what size u want.like my dahon vybe,im using shimano sora 50/34 but with no fd.incase i need to use 34t,just manually drop lah sweat.gif

yah la..quite expensive.. thing is i got this cheapo so called basikal lipat jepun. it s a steel. comfortable riding. got absorber front, seat. but the main prob is of course the speed, gear. + quite heavy aso. but riding wise - is classic! ...
how bout 2nd hand crankset, FD & RD .then who knows? maybe RM300.
--TRINX, XDS, JAVA - they re like B group of foldie brand rite? compare to dahon, tern, khs. or are they more reliable..good clamping mechanism new model now?
--- so still thinking ..sayang my old bike..

oh,didnt know u owning halfcut bike.few of ipoh foldies members also using halfcut bike..

anyway,the cheapest way they implement it changing the crank without fd and shifter.still save cost and better gearing lah.. i got 1 friend already climb up bukit berapit with only 6 speed gearing from his halfcut bike brows.gif

i got 2 friend bought dahon bordwalk d7 from "halfcut".one pay for rm120 and 1 more rm280.both already used the boardwalk.one refurbish the bike and one more rebuilt the bike since he got many spareparts..

still,its a good deal as boardwalk are CrMo steel and the toughest steel besides titanium.. worth it la bro,but very hard to find lah nowdays!

oh,
u already into fb ipoh foldies.didnt notice that,sorry my bad laugh.gif .
shah alam also can maa,..just start 1st then the crowd will come later.we all start in a small group 1st,then people will notice until now icon_rolleyes.gif

btw,
the best and effective upgrade is ur crank.from 6speed u can get 12speed or 18speed only from crank.but if u upgrade only the casette,u only get from 6 to 10 max...so why bother to get the casette?

http://www.bicyclebuysell.com/item/254652/...-hybrid-folding
the link above sell crank for only rm70.u can get 18speed with the crank.for me its worth it lah event without fd,its not a big matter to me.i already using shimano sora 50/34 on my vybe without fd.already achieve to climb bukit berapit (up north and down south) without "sorong" the bike with those cranks (on the way to taiping with 50-32 and on the way back cannot tahan already with gear setup 34-21)

p/s :- sorry,i didnt mean for show off,but its a good & true fact when upgrading ur crank will give u better gearings thumbup.gif
