hello all! been silently reading and saving up for a foldie, so i can cycle in indonesia.

currently looking at Crius, cos of price and lightweight stuff. I can't find the difference between Master-V and Velocity frame. Is it just the curvy look for velocity?

thank you all!

i doubt it could be any cheaper coz our currency are not that high.
even though doppel are origin from japan, it was manufactured in china, unlike tyrell its handmade in japan.

however, if u dont mind used item
mostly bike from japan also in good condition sometimes depends on ur luck

thanks.. owner know what to match.. i just assemble it for him
dont know lah boss,
the frame owner buy used last year, i think nearly more than 1 year. crankset, fd used item. others all new item. also ybn chain and sunrace casette are not that expensive.. so i dont know actual price for the item. but i do estimate around 2-2.5k lah.

if u want to customized ur bike,
dont compare to ready made bike (that one sell in shop), but customization more for self satisfaction, time consuming and of coz bigger budget.

Good to know he did it within a year...thinking to do the same buy few months one item...my savings skill not so good..

Wow bought 2 at once, must be really confident with this model. He advertised 2.3k isn't for this setup? Wondering is this is enough or should  custom build just no skill to self assembly doh.gif

Buy first, was looking at P8 but very mafan to import in. One for wife, one for me. Easier less headache and yes 2.3k advertised. But got lower of course cos buy 2.

Hello All,

I need a bit of help
my tires is written as 40-406 and 20 x 1.5
so 40mm = width, 406mm is inside diameter, 20" diameter as well, and 1.5" is width as well?

I am confused in the rim part. ETRTO 254*18mm written there. What does this number means?

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.
