QUOTE(vivaldi @ Feb 20 2014, 03:22 PM) Agreed...foldie is really convenient...it is light..feel not so "bulky"...I feel it easier to handle compare to other full size bike... Depends on which foldie.. most are not 'light' 12+-kg. A big wheel bike feels much more stable n less bumpy than small wheeler...

QUOTE(Ghosthunter @ Feb 27 2014, 11:01 PM) But if got more cash, Dahon has better reputation and costs appx 2.4K.. few years ago, it is still worth it... in 2011 i paid 2.5+k for a dahon.... now i wouldn't pay that much for a dahon... to get tht kinda spec n quality few years ago.. today it is on a tern bike... but the $$$ has increased much more... so it is not even worth it anymore... for a foldie...

QUOTE(etigge @ Feb 28 2014, 11:25 PM) When I first saw it, I liked too!Then when I was riding with earlku who was riding it, all my fascination is gone!  well.... first of all, of course it is not a fast folder..... the creaking sound, well hopefully i will help to make it gone soon.... if this bike is affordable... it is good for those who wana big wheel foldie, other than a montague... for me,,, i always like the ride quality of a big wheeler....

QUOTE(etigge @ Mar 6 2014, 09:34 PM) They do have bigger 451 tires with more treads. Although choice is limited, they do have. If you ever want to change from a 451 to a 406 wheelset, let me know. I will be glad to change it with you. I have an unused 406 wheelset.  I am looking for a 451 wheelset for my Dash anyway. Tell us bout d a bike

Disc brake is easier than v brake which nid to set-up n tune n will run out of balance. Oso it is easier n faster to remove the wheels, now road bikes are getting disc brake n soon a lot will b using it...
