Best to visit the shop so you can see the bikes at the same time. The last time I was there, so many people waiting and the customers so cheong hei one 😝, kept talking...

Best visit Rodalink in Bandar Botanic Klang. If there's stock, they have it because they are also the importers to Malaysia. Can look for Sam there. Why only Tern? Can consider others too, you know. whistling.gif

If foldable with bigger wheelsets is your criteria, Dahon also ada mah. Dahon IOS is 24 inch wheels. Also Dahon is just half the price of the Tern Ninja of the same sized wheelsets. Also if you look very carefully, they are also the same frame, same factory or not, I don't know lah but design is the same. Just like an enlarge Tern Verge or actually the old Dahon Vectors (already discontinued but used by Tern). Dahon Vectors now have new design , same as the Dahon Vigor but the upper scale models with better wheelsets and components are still called Vectors. The only drawback according to Jimmy of Kimbell Jaya was the disc brakes but for one customer, he changed to a Shimano hydraulic setup for free! rclxms.gif Maybe you can get the same deal. I think there is still available stock there.

as long as the hub match the correct width, and if u intend to use back the rim, the spoke count have to be the same.

Thanks for reply.

Btw , if i only changed the front crank to 56t and pair with behind 6speed ( start at 14t).

Is it easy to hit 20kmh?

I am looking for budget upgrade. Lol

Bikes out for a play. The Birdy is so comfortable! I think the elastomer suspension is much better than the Moulton's.
Irritating things about the Birdy.....no where to mount a bottle cage. The bar on the expedition rack is so thick only Ortlieb pannier can fit and no where to secure the pannier bag at the bottom. The steering is very sensitive and it is cumbersome to fold. Pedals has to be in the right position etc.
The Brompton is no match in today's windy condition due to the lack of gears. Should have brought out the Speed TR or Tikit in hindsight.

From the looks, you can try tighten the big fastener . I think the fastener from any grinder can be used. Or else you can use a flat head screw driver and hammer softly until it tightens. Just make sure which part is wobbling. Also check the handle post extension part. See if it is really tighten. Also the headset bearings, are they OK. I can't really confirm because I can't see clearly.

The fastener works the same way as the newer Dahons. The newer ones has treads on the inside of the fork steerer and yours are with treads on the outside. Works the same way, they pull and hold the fork from falling off. The present handle post or Lite pro ones can be installed but needs some modifications. Then, you will lose the classic looks of the bike. Try to tighten all moving parts and see.
