QUOTE(Ghosthunter @ Feb 20 2014, 09:28 AM) Thanks, for 1.5k you can get a 2nd hand dahon speed p8..I forgot to mention that i have tested a VOLCANO Folding bike, 21 speed bike at Taman Melawati yesterday which was for Rm850.00,but since i never heard of VOLCANO bike before , i walked away , but i am still open to opinions, if anyone cares to share his/her experience on this. many say the UGO seems better , i may spend slightly more to get a better folding bike as i believe its money well invested , but i need experienced forum members help here in what may be a better bike and where i can get it at..my budget is 1.5K Anyone , thanks... there are a few for sale... http://www.bicyclebuysell.com/item/226214/...-dahon-speed-p8 http://www.bicyclebuysell.com/item/216415/dahon-folding-bike |

I guess Foldie means easy to carry, easy to store, but a good one is not cheap. |

With foldie, i can just fold it up, put it at the car backseat and just drive to anywhere to ride. I can also take trains/lrt. Store in bag can masuk bas or naik aeroplane. With a full sized bicycle, i need to invest in a rack. Plus i cant take public transport with it. I wanted to go sightseeing and travel on bicycle but i cant cyle long and far. Hece bring a bicycle to a destination and ride short short there.foldie really slow ah? since u ask about mobility issue... Thats why i was looking nt touring/hybrid, in the end settled for a foldie. Exercise, is one of the reason too. |

Agreed...foldie is really convenient...it is light..feel not so "bulky"...I feel it easier to handle compare to other full size bike...Thats why i was looking nt touring/hybrid, in the end settled for a foldie.

Depends on which foldie.. most are not 'light' 12+-kg. A big wheel bike feels much more stable n less bumpy than small wheeler... |
