Be careful of getting 'hernia' when trying to carry the 'Hummer'.    Still many newbies buys it, if it is OK to you, by all means. It's cheaper. I think that's the main criteria. If the shape appeals to you, the Montague Paratrooper is definitely much better although many users still sells it off later when they prefer lighter bikes to carry around. A normal 26 incher foldie can fit into a car boot or the back seat. You should try looking at Dahon Expresso though or better still the Dahon Cadenza.

Usually those who opts for 26 inch bikes, usually goes straight for fix bikes. Afterall, if the wheels are taken off (both front and back), they still can fit into the back seat of a car. Heck, I can carry 2 mountain bikes with 2 riders on my car. All 4 wheels and stuffs at the boot and the 2 frames in the back seat. No worries of folding mechanisms and you get better components for a sub 1K bike.

My final say is, " Peng yeh , mou hou yeh ". Translated it means, " There are no cheap good bikes ".  If you are serious, spend a little bit more. A used Montague Paratrooper is now about 2K plus if you keep a lookout in BBS. Even a 5 year old Montague is better than a new Hummer. Happy riding 

Hi,
My sister own one hummer bike. The folding locking mechanism are problematic. It somehow uses quick release for wheels to lock up the fold. And the end screw sometimes drop inside the tube if you unscrew too much. Even after you lock it, the bike still loose and move. With this kind of locking mechanism, I'll advice not to go in mountain. Treat it more like leisure bike.
Riding position are OK and gearing, I would say it quite sufficient.

got , just change the QR to the montague spec lor...   

this is the reason y hummer fake can't lock tight, cos using normal wheel QR,

Another way to mod is to use the latest hex key skewers. Many are going this path as quick release skewers are not that really reliable. Instead of the QR, the skewers are tighten by using 5mm allen key. You can tighten as far as you want so this eliminates the smaller/larger lobes of the QR. Safer too.   Try to find this, then measure to the length and retread. Don't buy titanium though as it is hard to retread, a normal chromo will do already. And if the hex nut is loosed, you can still open using 3mm spanner.

You only have to carry a 5mm allen key but then most riders have a set of compact tool on us when we ride anyway.

This is a good idea... The only thing I don't like the hummer is this QR. If this can solve the problem, it's not a bad bike. However, I find this bike too heavy for my liking. 😅😅😅

I'll suggest to my sister. See if she wants to mod or not. I think she's thinking of changing bike.
May I know your purpose of getting this bike? If just for recreation, there's so many other bikes that are available for you to choose.
Too be honest, the fold are not exceptional small. You still need to take out the front rims to be able to fold your bike.

Look good!    I never considered the Hummer as a mountain bike. Here's the comparison !

If that's your intention, I still suggest you go for cheaper mountain bikes like Trinx or a Raleigh. At least it is a mountain bike. A hummer is neither here nor there!    Too flimsy to be a mountain bike and too heavy for road use. There are too many moving parts for that quality. Even the forks will get stuck after a while.  Only advantage is the folding capability which is not really that great either, the folding mechanism is not strong. At least with the Trinx, you get a better drivetrain, rather than the chinese freewheel hubs which is hard to calibrate. Better still, the Raleigh, you can get 24 proper Shimano speed. Since you are not going offroad, the Trinx hybrid is the best for you. Comes with Shimano Claris roadbike gears.

If going over 1K is not worthwhile for you, I suggest you go for the 20 inch foldies. It is enough for you to get your exercise around the flats and taman. Believe me. Many newbies have the impression that the smaller the bike, the harder to ride which is not true. Actually smaller bikes rides uphill easier due to smaller wheels but slower. Penang even have a Jab group which has 12 inch wheels and they ride up to the Balik Pulau hills easily.

Quote, \" I don't want to spend too much just in case I become lazy. \" Unquote.

From here I can deduct that you WILL become lazy after you ride the Hummer. Hahahaaaa! It's heavy and the tires are wide! Usually we mountain bikers prefers lighter bikes, more crucial to us as the resistance on riding offroad is too great.

Still it's my humble opinion. The choice is always yours. 

I don't think they brought in the Trink KA2627 but I am not sure but Cronus has got one. Here ,

Anf then there's this Java which I think is the Trinx KA2627. Look at both of them carefully, looks the same.
