for budget budget look for foldy like these, complete wit rack n mudgards, price oso nice
got stolen or lost etc... oso won't rugi a lot....



my fren oso got trinx, compare with other budget bike, the seat post is larger and
once u unlock the seat post clamp it will drop down fast, like those more expensive bikes.

some other budget bikes, u need to grab the seat, pusing kiri kanan and push down with force
to make it go lower.

wah the MIT 2k above cannot afford for now I think I'll get closer look at dahon vybe c7a. this is still within my budget and it looks like reliable for long term usage. thanks buddy

thank you, but tak letih ke kayuh the 16"? as I also will kayuh to supermarket, in pj old town...

is this trinx better quality than garrion? for me although budget, looking also long term usage coz I seldom upgrade stuff, I always pakai until it cannot work anymore, like my phone is still htc legend with android eclair 2.2 lol (still good)... my watch old PUMA since form 5, now I'm 34 years old ha ha ha! so although looking cheap ones but not so cheap to compromise quality lah. just a decent one.

a seller recommend me Geomatric bike, I googled and found out it Malaysian made by Taiwanese manufacturer. anybody have exp with this?

sorry didn't see this comment before. I think you need not worry, I always buy from groupon, goods always arrive. Have no bad experience so far.

ahahaha, gotten bad news, finally email me no stock and delayed delivery, so i requested for refund...
so back to market search again.

these bikes doesn't differ much from other china bike cos they are all made within the price range.

dahon buget model for 2015 is suv D6

http://www.khassbicycles.com/index.php/pro...on-suv-d6-steel

u will notice that it doesn't differ much from others like geometric in terms of built quality.

if u can't check out the bikes yourself it is very difficult to get one that u r satisfy with...

ok the new dash D18 is gona look like this ya, since khass bike oredi put this pic. so can stop dreaming of the old frame style....





summore the price increased to RM2998 b4 less.....

Just took back my Dash back from Kimbell Jaya. Tak laku Many wants to wait for the new 2015 model. They went back to V-brakes, that's good, at least better than the mechanical disc brakes. Also the front end , went back to 73mm hubs. My guess is, they will sell about RM2750 average. Maybe RM2600 if cabel is good.

Funny, Mine, with full Shimano 105 groupset, Ultegra level 10 speed shifters, 451 riims with Duranos also tak laku at 3K. I am going to repaint it Orange and convert it to Dash X20. Will post a photo here later.

i think ppl will be interested if ur dash is with old stock components, and sell at 1.7K liddat, plus condition have to be cun cun.... the frame...

thanks very much for your input. I'll try to see at the shops.

The frame is cun. The last owner who traded it with my Dahon Vigor , only rode twice. Her wife felled and gave up. Hahahaa. Me on my side, modding pandai, but ridng it, I prefer my Speed , more gears. So, all in all, very few rides only with the Dash. Anyway, cannot sell, so I simpan sajalah! The mountain bike project also completed and fully paid already. I was thinking of disposing it and pay for the mountain bike. So, I took many stuffs from Jimmy and ask him to contra with the 2 velos but till now, all paid up already.

So the white colour p18 is urs la...hahaaa..did asked the shop how much the price is but way out of my budget.

the white dash are very rare nowdays.some of it may like it in original kilang condition and preserve the value.since ur dash already moded,few consideration for other cyclist also.btw,that is MHO

i got my friend also scouting for the white dash,but with original parts and the price for 2nd value he estimated around below 2k

anyway
already convert my tern using 451 wheel.try to fit the original vbrake,but failed.so last choice is the caliper brake



anyway, i lost my "N fold" technology (tern so called folding method) when using the caliper,but i do learn to fold like verge x18

Hi peeps..extremely newbie here. I bought a 7 speed Garion G2016-bc from groupon last week. From gear 1-6 (is it the correct term?) everything is changing smoothly. But 6-7 nothing happened. Is it normal thing that i innocently dont know? Please teach this newbie.. Sorry for the noob question

When you change from 406 to 451 wheelsets, you need to use C-brakes (road bike brakes) and that also provided the frame has a place to install the C-brakes. If you still want to use back your V-brakes, you need adapters to shift the brake studs higher up. I saw Lite Pro ones in Kimbell Jaya , the other day. Alternatively, you can get adapters to lengthen the V-brake calipers arm, which I also saw Lite Pro ones being sold in Kimbell Jaya. I prefer the former ones as extending the brake caliper arms is not really safe.

i saw this adapter before,but didnt expect it can extend the length of the arm.and also i saw another type of adapter (extend the shoe) like u said before.my friend already used it but he also not recommended me coz he already cabut when riding down the hill .besides,the price for the adapter not cheap either.topup a bit we can get 2ndhand caliper price range from rm80-120.

so for safety purpose,
i adopt the caliper for better stopping.besides i already had tektro, axis and 105 caliper when upgrading my folding hybrid and rb.so better used what i had in hand to cut the cost

What do you guys think of this? Pretty neat.

Discreet e-bike conversion

Nice idea for long distance travel, but defeats the purpose of cycling though, lol.

An opportunity to change to Ultegra brifters ( shifter and brake ) with Zipp relica bullhorn bars and Fizik bartape. Anyone here wants to change to such riding position. Willing to change to straight bars as my wife wants to ride easier nowadays. This velo also came back from Kimbell Jaya, unsold so I am keeping both the Dash and the Performer velo. I am looking for Shimano SL-M760, SL-M770 or SL-M780 shifters only as the groupset is all Ultegra so it is just fitting that the shifters match the groupset. Willing to change one for one, although my setup cost more. The bullhorn is RM260 + Ultegra brifters RM800+ Fizik bartape RM100. It is still worthy even if you buy a new shifter to exchange.

PS/ forgot to mention, the bar is carbon fibre and I did this because it is wasteful to tear up the ba rtape and sell separately.

If no response here, going to sell in BBS, just thinking to give a chance to forummers here.
