oh ya,
as for 3d handlepost, i cant comment bcoz i didnt have fnhon 3d handlepost. but to compare stock fnhon handlepost with my tern 3d handlepost, the 3d handlepost much stiffer and no squeeking sound.

last time i climb jerai and put some preasure on the handlebar, the handlepost do sound a bit and its irritating. dont have those sound when flat or normal climb.. well, jerai have 900m elevation

2 possible causes
1) chain too long which is very common as local bike shop like to install longest possible on the safe side
2) rear derailleur need tuning.

Guess need to tune it, since new haven't tune before.

Seems like not much different. I will stay with 34cm then.

Why do u need to fold that way tho? cannot sandwich the handle post?

I just found out about the fnhon handlepost before place order. only add 60RMB for matt color finish, quite a good deal so why not.

Folding handlebars are not expensive at taobao, I would buy all 3 to try out. Still cheaper than buying 1 unit locally and everywhere else. Not ngam just junk them.

i try to fold normal way, but my shifter and liver getting the way on the frame to get compact. even if i release the qr on the handlepost to make the handlebar loose also cannot. it can fold, but not to compact and the magnet wouldnt attach. maybe the shorter length handlepost cause it. i look at my friend who are using the longer one (39cm) and no problem.

if i got money, i would buy the litepro handlepost that fold outside, but the price is around rm180 for it.

now, i dont care, this type of method fold compact. so im happy with it. save money

Can fix by own or need send to services?sorry as Newbie, lack of knowledge

I am using fnhon 3d handlepost with 34cm length.
I change bcos i dont like the ride position when using my previous 40cm.

some more with shorter handlepost it just aesthetically pleasing to look at the bike.hehe

Previous look with the 40cm



Anyway, i also had a tern link d16 before.as for stiffness comparison, this fnhon 3d handlepost is no match to terns.
The tern is like zero play/wobble and soo stiff AF even when you off saddle climbing hard.
meanwhile fnhon 3d still got a little flexes no different than its non 3d version.

I think the headtube/headset design play more important role than the handlepost itself as i feel the flex from my fnhon come from that area

That's exactly what im thinking

I think Tern handlepost clamp play a role on the stiffness as well.

Do u have a updated 34cm handlepost photo from side? Yours is 349 or 305 wheelset?

The FGC 1611 doesnt support magnet system, and the 3D handlepost doesnt come with fold outside option so i hope i don get the problem.
Even if i do, i will just half fold most of the time, use the handle post to roll the bike around.

Second project completed for s rider friend. Looks nice huh? Goat leather.

My latest setup with 349 wheelset and 34cm handlepost.very much like the one azam posted,the white color frame.

34cm just nice bro,
i setup 31.5cm coz sometimes my daughter use the fnhon. so if i had longer non adjustable handlepost, its quite hard for my daugther to use it. as for now, my daughter love to ride my dahon dabike. since dabike are consider classic bike, i should consider more to preserved it since the frame cant guarantee until when it will last

besides,
i had measure the 31.5 setup is the same like my rb before i bought. if i bought 29cm it might be too low for me to handle.. all the setup on my bike (tern verge, dahon speed,dabike and doppelgangger) had done bike fitting to suite my style of riding. people wont care much about bike fitting when riding folding bike, i do take deep attention on it bcoz good bike will not make u pain when riding

Very nice sifu. You should give us some idea of what is available and price?

long time didnt ride this 700c folding bike. weight around 15kg of steel and its heavy compare to other roadbike, event vintage steel roadbike

I will catalogue them soon and post it in FB page. Will PM you when done.

Downhill laju!

Can i get the catalogue as well? PM me will do. Decided to started analogue photography again and combine with cycling, cant find a good case to attach to my handlebar for quick snap
