Sifu, forum like riding lah, there are times not so fun also, sometimes it rains, and something got cars breeding down your neck. But then that is part of the ride. A lot of people would appreciate you in this forum. No worries and don't take it too personally, Just 'look open' abit (in Cantonese). Also like what explained, tembak menembak is not the intention. Forum is sharing that all. If really want to 'fight', take it to Genting lor.

So be cool and hang around

Is it normal to have paint peeling at the inside fold hinge?
The hinge is medium hard to fold but not hard to open the latch.

those are contact areas of the joint, 2 surface rubbing each other.

some accident @ kesas bike lane...



this website mostly reports traffic accidents...

always be careful on the road...

After getting my java fit , which is a excellent cycle...i then saw a Proton T cycle for sale.
Mint condition, full specs, the previous owner only used 5 times.
I bought it and i can its a good bike for the money.
Basically now , i alternate between the Java and Proton.
Always cycle at Putrajaya 2-3 times a week, somehow i find it so refreshing as i cycle along the lake and in the evening sometimes the air can be quite cooling.
These days i have stopped my walks and gym and mostly cycle , perhaps later when i get over the excitement , i will alternative between the 3.
One thing i have learned is enjoy while you can , and if you have the means go for a better cycle.
I have a friend who is wealthy but uses a 6 years old cheap cycle, he says it doesnt bother him and is happy with his choice.
so to each his own and hope that perhaps riders who come to Putrajaya will sort of announce or let me knw so that i may join them at Putrajaya.
wishing everyone a lovely day with all the good health

How tight the hinge should be?
Tern has a video in youtube on how tight the latch should be n teach how to adjust it.

all dahon's joint adjustment are in their manual.

they don't give printed manuals anymore?

even THOR @ bikeforums said ok mar....

if u notice the tern joint @ tern forum, it is also the upper area where the paint came off.

as long as tarak bunyi n can't feel longgar.. shudn't worry...

i only receive dahon cd but my laptop cant open it
so i down load the owner's manual and service manual

i watch tern hinge adjustment video to gauge to tight the fold should be.
