Hi guys, I'm new here. I'm wondering if this thread allows people to post bicycles that they want to sell?

ur rim stated like that?
if im not mistaken 18mm is ur rim width. 254 i dont know where u get it  sweat.gif but i think maybe ur spoke length hmm.gif

It is written on the rim itself. I manually measured the spokes but (160-170mm). Guess what you said is more or less correct with quick google.

Thank you for your help.

any normal bike shop can replace the broken spoke. for the rim, depends on condition. maybe can trueing (balancing) the rim and make it normal. otherwise need to replace whole wheelset if dont want any hassle. icon_rolleyes.gif

try scout in shopee. nowdays most local stock dont have stock shakehead.gif

azamunekurone can I check with you what's the function of this part for the Tern Verge series? Can it be removed? I think my chain is rubbing against it when I use gear 8 & 9.

My understanding is to prevent the chain from drop-off the chain-ring and scratch the frame or crank, even though you don't have a FD. Also the difficulty and dirty to mount back the chain when you are outside cycling.

Sure it can be removed but be aware of the risk. I think you can adjust it by loosen/tighten and rotating it slightly around the seat post there.

i am eyeing on this cap ayam 14" 3 speed.
user posted image

all in price should be around RM860 per bike (estimated).


If fnhon brand from other seller, which the 1 gck bought from, i estimate all in price around RM1300.
https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r....bucket=6#detail

It does looks much nicer and better spec on paper but i am so hesitate to spend 1.3k on a 14" sweat.gif
not sure if there is any better option for 14" around RM900 all in.

yea, i also same, now with the 16" and 20". now thinking to try 14", wanna get from local but the price is too absurd.
hope able to fit 14", 16" and a 20" in a small sedan and go ride together in 3 pax.

btw, how's your freewheel and chainring upgrade plan on both of your bikes?


gck could share with me on your experience in getting those 14" from taobao? how's the shipping cost and time? or any tips for more safer sea freight?

Not too bad, all in cost for a 3 speeds new bike. It is 1/3 price of a Dahon K3 14" thumbsup.gif

Will you consider a single speed 14" bike? Simple set-up and light, maybe can get it around RM500 range.

I was trying to fit 3 bikes (two 20" + one 16") with 4 passengers into one car (hatch back), no luck... end up with having 2 bikes + 2 passengers all the time biggrin.gif

I've the new freewheel (11T - 32T) with me, but not install to the bike yet, because I think the 11T a bit too fast for me.
