Want extreme gradient? Dont have to go far. Just head to Jalan Langgak Duta. Easy can get more than 20% gradient for less then 500m span. If not enough can repeat climb. Search Bukit Lamboghini langgak duta

Can’t wait for this coming KL Car Free Morning!

Usually Friday Night 10pm they all RV near Medan Tuanku. If you are from Ampang, can try Taman TAR loop near Jalan Kerja Air Lama or Genting Perez loop near Hulu Langat Batu 18 or Genting Sempah Loop

when drafting or speeding

hahaha...no pain no gain bro

I suggest you to head down to hulu langat batu 18 - Perez. Better training ground and u will improve a lot (depends on your training regime). From bukit ampang go straight down towards H. Langat Batu 14 turn left and straight all the way about 7km u will see police station on your left. Park there and head to perez.

Yeap..i also divided whether wanna join that wacoal ride since it starting line is my office 😂. Ended up went to Janda Baik loop from KLCFM.

GAP Loop with foldie? Hell yeah!

2 Bromptons (6 speeds and 3 speeds respectively) 1 Java Ira, 1 Dahon Dash, 1 Tern, and 1 Giant roadbike.

Here is the route, hope can inspire others.
HOA-Gombak-Ulu Yam-Batang Kali-KKB-GAP-Bentong-Janda Baik-Genting Sempah-HOA.


My Garmin decided to hang at the first 12km


Refueling my self after the first climb of Ulu Yam


Super hot near the Dam before Chilling


The crew. It is important to stay together to support each other. Mental and physical. No breakaway.


Please be extra cautious when descending from here. Wet road plus multipe hairpin corner.


Reached Bentong around 6plus. We have our diner/lunch here before heading towards Janda Baik. And yes, it was already dark.


Descending genting sempah in pitch black. That is why you need to stick together and make sure everyone is okay. Pacing is important especially when you attack the infamous bukit McD after the RnR area. Very torturous i can tell you plus dogs.

Tips:
-carry a lot of food with ya. I personally recommend Hutan Ration. Not trying to promote here but it can give u lots of energy and delicious comprared to energy gel.

- rear/front blinkers. Spare tube. Patch etc is a must.

- powerbank also is a must to charge lights and phone.

- support car recommended. Can wait at RnR area to escort you at genting sempah.

Hope this post will inspire others. You can do anything with foldie. So stop finding excuse, train hard and enjoy the route. Everyone suffer...its normal. 😊

Use 32t cassette (the biggest cassette at the back) to climb. Biggerr the cassette, the easier for u to climb. Easy to say use no 6-7-8 on ur shifter to climb.

Please check i think the bigger the number the smallest the cog is or either way. Its been a while since I use the flatbar shifter. But the rule of thumb is simple. Use big cassette for climb.

Fun but at the end stressed 😂. Dogs doing roadblock in Bukit McD.

Moving time 10hours and elapsed time almost 17hours

BRM200: Bangi Wonderland is ni joke. The climbs are tortoreous. Weather is superhot and at the end of the day heavy rain.

I did not finish the ride. Kantoi at KM156 near simpang tiga Perez as it was already 8.30pm. Super dark and only two of us left.



Our mission is only to make sure one of our pack member (black brompton) to finish before the cut of time (9pm). Three of us are ghost riders anyway.

There is one rider from Klang Foldies finished the race only using by 16” Dahon. Hat off to you brother. My point is do not limit your potential. We can do wonders with folding bike. Do not let the size of the wheels intimidate you. 😊

10k plus without modding. 20” correct

This is the guy im mentioned in my above posting. There are two of them. Another is dahon vigor but dont know what happened to that chap as the last time we saw, he was taking shelters after bukit tangga.

There are lot actually who had done Audax 200 with folding. Even with 3 speeds Brommie. All you need is confidence and to get confidence you need training.

Never bother about it. I used to ride alone. Done broga pondan without teammate and support. No problems. Never mention the price if people dont ask.

My principle is simple, u only live once so never regrets and buy what you can afford. You dont have to cycle in poor foreign countries to get rob. I lost my 2k Dahon Speed P8 in KL. You just move on..shit happen

Depends on how you gonna abuse that bicycle. If for santai2 and taman rides only then its okay. But make sure to check on hinges.

But I think better you check at local bike store. You can feel and inspect the bike first. No tesco pls.

Why are u so paranoid mr. Ken? If they want ur bike let it be lah..that is why u need to insured your precious belongings.

Or perhaps riding diy frame can protect u from robbers? Btw i am still looking forward for ur diy frame. Talk only no update kah? My nephew also can brag bro

Personally I think u should read more on positive thinking.

P/s: I know theres a lot of thungs in Klang/Shah Alam... but its not that bad. Got friend there riding Pinarello Dogma F10 Dura-Ace groupset donning Black Sheep kit (worth 1.2k), Fizik Infinito shoe (1.2k), original kask velegro helmet (1K), and POC shades (1.2k). Still alive and ride without problem (being murdered).

Then u have guts to advice newbies in this forums and whatsapp groups previously to build their own frame for what? Just to show off ah? 10k ah? U said just need tig only before this??

Well, I’ve done that too. More than just federal highway and wee hour rides..Am not naive just less paranoid than u. And not that stupid to hire bodyguard to cycle. Have a nice day mr ken ching

Freaking hot weekend

Because Janda Baik, Bentong, GAP loop are too mainstream.
