last time as in when?  mine was mid january and at that time he still have another unit (white colour) considering it is a "cold door" foldie i doubt it would be sold so soon. Dont worry if you can wait you can always ask him to order.

alternatively theres another seller who has a shop in kajang and BMC selling for RM750.00

But again, if you guys xprocdannygeni have the money and willing to splurge, i would suggest going for dahon/tern/khs or any other foldie with more gears. you dont want to make ppl wait for you in group rides, unless if you are like me, just riding with wife without any thing to rush.
*
my story purchase at kimbell as follows

jimmy say raleigh better ride compare to my C7S, but he say after fold it then i will choose C7S...

then he folds it

then i brought C7S...

but i think soon i will pass this to my gf and brought another one... coz now two people only one bicycle... so still cycling this and looking forward to buy another.... wait me cycle more first before buy the next one

i choose C7S instead C7A because of the price... but a bit regret lor... should get broadwalk... nvm newbie just cycle first lor....

one more question... how to lube the chain, when should i done it?

the best lighting are still those using normal battery..
I used 2 cateye on both my bike.. if halfway run out of power..can still buy at any 7/11 or mamak stalls..
I used to use those rechargeable  notworthy.gif creek lighting notworthy.gif ..but always forgot to charge..

ohh.. I strongly recommend install an air horn on your bike..very useful..
even my mtb I also installed 1..

thanks for tips... notworthy.gif

Anyone here can comment on Dahon Boardwalk D8 vs Tern Link D8 vs Dahon Speed P8 vs Dahon Mu P8?

All 8-speed, though there are differences in price due to diff parts. Question is, are the "better" parts on the pricier models worth the extra diff in price?
*
i want to know also... haha..
price wise is it Dahon Boardwalk D8 < Tern Link D8 < Dahon Speed P8 < Dahon Mu P8?

No need to compare!  tongue.gif  Although I am a Dahon supporter, for this case the Tern Link C7 is better than the Dahon Vybe C7s.
*
later post he mentioned is compare Vybe C7A with Link C7... not C7S,

becoz C7S with tern link c7 = RM400-500 difference leh ...

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...

Plus, the petrol station punya air pump are always rated higher than what it actually pumps in. I selected 37psi but when counter checked with a gauge after pumping, only 34.5psi.

all the petrol station punya pump? or just one or two petrol station...

since you mentioning about myvi car boot, i guess you need a very compact bike. Not sure which between dahon/tern that fits you but brompton has no prob. Try to ask the shop to test whether can fit into you myvi car boot or not.

Light bike doesn't come cheap. average weight is 12. to 14kg?
*
for normal 20" foldie, the top cover for the car boot need to be removed, then the bike to be placed vertically...
