Dahon frame is always better than Trinx which actually is a cheap China product. Trinx is popular because the importer Guan Chow (which incidently is also now Dahon's franchise importer) specified better drivetrain components to attract buyers. So, question is, what and how are you going to use the bike? If you are just a casual rider, just for riding in the park or housing estate to burn some calories occassionally, then the Trinx would suffice. BUT if you were to join some riders (that's when you have advanced yourself at a later stage) for rides, which they usually do EVERY weekend, also sometimes they do like 80 kilometers at one ride, a better bike really makes a difference. You will be suprised with just material difference, eg. aluminium versus chromoly versus hi-ten steel will impact the ride of the rider. Also, if you come to that stage, frames like Dahon is still good and you only have to upgrade the basic gear setup of the Dahon.

So, to what extent you will use the bike, that's a question nobody else except yourself can answer.

Off course the original carrier fits perfectly and looks nicer but it also more expensive. There are cheaper universal versions but they don't looks that good. Topeak also makes universal carrier and it's cheaper than the original but it is also on the high price, ranging from RM150, give and take 10%.

Tq 4 yr advise again bro...where to buy dahon carrier online ?

Hi,

Any Brompton owners has a 54T crank to sell. Interested in buying to increase the gearing. Let me know.

Ta

We have one USED set "Fixed" Chainwheel & Crank, 3/32" [54T] in stock.

I'm wondering if anyone here bring ur foldie for touring in other country? I'm planning a trip from Chiang mai to Mae Hong son next year, now deciding whether to get a foldie or MTB ?

Touring starts from boleh land or starts from Thailand? If starts from there you have to dissemble and reassemble the MTB there

start from chiang mai.
i saw a few cyclist brought a big bicycle case when i was at chiang mai last time
tat's why im thinking whether to get a foldie for touring

Folding bike can do touring too.

Went to Vans Urban tat day....saw there are few selling there.

Rodalink,MBS or Vans Urban they sell Tern.

how about bring it to trail

Trail riding and touring are two different discipline

so my initial intention is to get a mtb so i can do some trailing and touring as well
