Hey guys, I'm new to folding bike and I have some questions to ask all the sifu here.
I'm looking for a rather affordable folding bike and here are some of the characteristics I'm looking for:

Wheel size:
26 or 24 inch (tried smallish one before and do not prefer it)


*
bro, u prefer 26 inch, better go for hummer lor.. the price oso very nice ngam ur budget...

or u can check out the Java 26',

go to bike shop n look for these 2, see which one u like...

i think java more expensive....

there is a dahon matrix in bike shop in serdang..

used wan, dono sold or not... tht wan is a 'rare' bike in msia..

Thanks for the reply.

I see mudah, lelong everyplace selling at different price. What's the market average price now for this Mainland Hummer?
*
price can vary cos, some get bike with very lousy components, some get from factory chin chai buat etc..

most important is get from a reputable shop, like kimbell jaya etc , u can see at bbs there or facebook.

this type the lock very tough to open....

u can achieve 50kmh using 55x11, 451 wheel, at cadence around 110rpm..
on flat... assume zero headwind la....

since most foldie and minivelo have problem installing cadence sensor...

many duno their cadence max out at wht value.... biggrin.gif....

If I'm not wrong, this type not as good as the one click release one right?
Generally you want to find the another type am I right?

Some shop in Kota kemuning offer me RM1.5K for the one click version (24 speed).
I've checked the rear joint area and other parts, it is clearly the mainland version.

How's the pricing if 1.5k, sounds a bit too expensive for me.
*
shop selling at round 800rm oni la... for 21 speed..
u go kimbell jaya see, same or not with kota kemuning...

wow....ur leg are very strong lah bro.i also cannot pedal 53+11,max i can go 53+12,unless around 1km only other than that i cannot tahan already!

oh ya,speaking of cadence sensor,
any foldie or minivelo that have chainstay can put cadence sensor bro.this is mine

few model are quite imposible to install the cadence sensor,that is if i can remember xds,java,volcano, dahon vybe, MUp8 and few more model without chainstay.. cry.gif
*
biggrin.gif tht is just an example i gave after getting the cadence from bike calculator, not tht i can cycle at tht setting biggrin.gif even can hit oso mebe few seconds oni.... biggrin.gif


installing cadence sensor on minivelo or folding bike is a problem even for bike with chain stay cos the wheel 20 inch even 451 is too small.

most manufacture like cateye very lazy they do 2 sensor together like ur strada, some got wire linked both sensors, but still too short.

u need to find one tht is totally separated. so far ive come across few bike computer who does it. polar is one...

or u can use gps for speed n install the cadence sensor to send the crank... sacrificing the speed sensor...


like this tak bleh.....

maybe this question has been asked before but how big is the different in term of speed between 20" bike vs roadbike vs MTB?
is the wheelsize giving any advantages/disadvantages?
*
yes asked many times already.... biggrin.gif replied many times already....

u can play with this calculator to see the numbers...

http://www.bikecalc.com/speed_at_cadence

apart from that....

the ride quality, handling and 'feel' of mini velo n full size bike is huge...

it all depends on your preference...

therefore, ppl own few bikes from big to small... biggrin.gif
