encik azam pakai fnhon 16" tu ke pergi kerja?

yup!
tumpang wife pergi kerja and cycle all the way back home after work.the shortest route blk rumah around 9~10km one way with 3-5 climb area

so far xde masalah ler..

great inspiration!

next week I'll start my plan. mine is also 10km one way all the way to office but really heavy traffic, so decided to do the komuter sentul plan first about 7km to komuter and another 1km at the other station to office. see how it goes.

The rear derailleur can just, just manage, almost to the limit already. You might need to extend the chain though or change another if you can't find extra similar links. But it might just be enough, the old one.

yeah, thats the spirit!!

Hi guys
Just saw an add on bicycle buy sell for Jetstream 2011 selling around 2.2k condition he claim 8/10 is it worth it ? The new version of Jetstream I saw is retailing around 3.8k

Any1 can comment on Cronus Solder 2.0 fold-able MTB?? Thinking to get 1 at the price of RM1960++

Izzit a good deal??

Thx..

My personal view, folding mtb is not very practical. It is troublesome to fold, either to remove the front wheel or loosen the Handle bar to align it parallel to the bike to make it compact (still very bulky anyway) if you want to transport in car boot. Off-road use yes you can but in a careful way or risk damaging the folding joint. The biggest impractical factor is a folding pedal on a mtb just dont look right

For rm2k, invest in a regular mtb & a car roof/boot rack to save you the transport hassle and enjoy riding instead. If you prefer a folding bike, there are a some larger 22" or 24" wheel folding bike available in the market.

The older version is much better if the condition is OK. Just check the fold section and when you ride it doesn't move or creaks, then it's OK. I think when one post a price like 2.2K, they usually let go for 2K. Go for it if you like.

I can't even trust Dahon with it's patented folding latch for mountain trail riding, let alone Cronus! If you want to do MTB get a regular one, 26 inch wheelers are cheap nowadays. A new one like the Exitway Kosa (if you don't mind the brand) with a Suntour fork, 3x10 speed Shimano Deore groupset, hydraulic brakes, good tires and sealed bearing wheelset is now going on offer at RM1.7K only , BRAND NEW. The Deore groupset alone is already 1.2k if we buy from LBS The rest are almost a give away.

I recommend that because I have friends who rides with me who asked me to recommend but they choose others (maybe they think I get commission from Kimbell Jaya, hahaa ) One choose Trek Skye and the other a Cube. Both budget at 2K. Fair, but when they ride, they started to fiddle and then when discussing, the fork needs to be changed, the groupset needs to be upgraded (original is 3x8 for the Trek) etc. etc. Basically you buy the frame for 2K.

If you just plan to ride around your 'Taman' and join regular rides on the road, just get a 20 inch folding bike. Many noobies thinks that the 20 inch bikes are children's bike and it not possible to do a heavy workout and ride far. That's a wrong assumption. Get your priority right first, Tarmac OR OFFROAD .

Finally I saw one in BBS. He's selling a bit near to the selling price though.

Tyre lever and pump?

I would slip in a piece of cardboard on either side of the bag too just for some added protection.

Congratulations! That's a nice looking bike!

Pump checked. Tyre lever i think dont need since i dont know how to replace tyre or tube also. Haha.
Thanks for the suggestion,would do tat!

You should have a tire lever and also patches as well. What happens if someone who knows wants to help but neither of you have it? It could be just a passer by who 's not riding or another rider whose tools are with another partner rider. Be prepared is better.

patches where to buy?
not straight chg the tube meh? the patch is for what?

FINALLY.......VIGOR COME TO PAPA
