IMHO, Sifu Etigge will only consider if the frame is good quality. The rest of the components he can always upgrade it later.

anyone upgraded their crank before?

The shop mentioned must be Joo Ngan Son. I was looking around the other day and saw this nice looking Volt V-brake set and the price.............RM600+ per pair They look like it's made by Ridea which is selling RM250 except the Volt set is painted white.

Point here is, I don't think Volt has their own manufacturing facility. They just get someone who does and paint their colour and stick their decals. The same goes to many other brands, I might say. If it is around the price mentioned, I second the comment to actually look at other more proven brands. I saw the bike but did not really scrutinize it closely so just to be fair, I can't really comment.

One point for sure is Joo Ngan Son don't sell cheap. That. I know!

bicycle unless stated otherwise,

very likely made in taiwan or china....

of all design they chose this , which i think is not very attractive...

here is an article in italian,

i wonder y dahon bother with this clinch model.

it is just like a bmx frame...

i think need hex-key to unscrew it first

Van's Urban advert on a new Tern P9. Just for info.

TERN Verge P9: 2014 NEW model
Check out the new model of TERN Verge P9 - fast and incredibly stiff, hydro form aluminum frame, ultra light wheels and high pressure tires. Its only 11kg weight and carries up to 110kg weight of a rider.

If that's the case, then Rodalink is the best place to get a bike...e.g. if Joo Ngan is expensive

not necessarily , other dealers can give better discount.....

dahon Curl... ( try to copy bromptom )

introduced a few years ago as a prototype...

shown again this year at taipei show....

why it is not famous?
