Hi all,

I am thinking of changing my crank set (Trinx KA1606), looking a tool to remove the screw... can please confirm the right tool to unscrew the crank, please refer images attached.

Thanks!

Will def take a nicer pic next week.
Just went for a short ride from Rimbayu to Jenjarom on Sun morning. Enjoyed the ride and noticed the pedal grips well. Was doing 20-25kmh on flat roads. Wanted to go faster but couldnt pedal too long with 53/11 (presume is the stuffiest). do you think i should reduce to 52/36T? hehe

Basically just for a good exercise as well as maybe a longer ride (in near future maybe).

OK here's my thoughts :

1) Tern C8 - well it's Tern. I have no comment since i have no experience with it but in general, ppl say it's a good brand, specialising in foldies so it is backed by experience. However i have recently read of cases where there are cracks occuring on different part of the frames. again i cant provide an informed comment.

2) XDS K2 - also a common brand, it is most seen among MTB. from the spec it seems impressive, Sora FD RD, hydraulic disc brakes, 20-incher and comparatively lighter than others in the list.

3) Trs Bliss - 24-incher. larger tyre can say allow you to ride faster than smaller wheel foldies, but 24-inch tyres are hard to come by and choices are limited, if you are looking to source them from local shops. not as portable after folding compared to 16- and 20-inchers but if you hardly need to fold then it wouldnt matter.

4) Trinx Flybird - the frame shape reminds me of KHS. 16 speed . if around same price i would go for XDS K2 instead

5) Raleigh Evo - no experience but i have owned a raleigh Ugo with almost similar spec. it seemed touring ready with the rear rack, looks solid but i have to first tell you it is comparatively heavy. good if you're looking to train your legs. maybe you'll get used to it after a while and wont have issue with the weight.

Thanks for your thoughts, im also eyeing on XDS K2, but Terns keep on popping into my thoughts also.

I wonder if the riding feel for Terns is so good compared to the higher spec XDS K2.

For a foldie/bicycle, does the 'Brand' makes any different compared to 'specs'? - for example, a higher specs of non branded phone does not necessarily feels better than a reputable brand ie iphone, samsung, huawei...

for bicycle, specs can be changed and upgraded. tambah duit saja mah.

go with the brand, with known manufacturer's support/guarantee.
