if im not mistaken ecosmo or something like that. but dont forget, ira equipped with carbon fork

1. can coz still 406 wheelset
2. both can. not much impact. if u use larger than 1.5, need to be careful when installing it. otherwise ur tube will stuck between rim and tyre and can pancit

Which folding bike would you recommend as an entry level 20" bike? Looking at something for casual riding and bang-for-buck.

Casual riding I think any bike that suits ur budget can do
But when u start to fall in love with riding and got poison the story is different already

What would you recommend that is bang for buck then? Something that can be upgraded to a certain extent in the future.

If you buy a cheap foldie then don't think for part upgrades. It just is not worth it.

Sell off or dump the cheapo and buy a full-fledged premium foldie when it comes the time to upgrade.

Lol that is what I been asking for, recommendations for an entry-level bike that is bang for buck which has the potential to upgrade in the future.

entry level few years ago rm500

entry level now rm1k

just go get a xds k3.2 at rm1.5k (if still available)

What's your max budget?

Hello everyone. I just wanna ask something since dcs* not replying. I wanna ask where can i get the latest Pikes?

I've check the net but it doesn't seem like any shop carries it. (maybe i didn't search hard enough). It seems like there's changes with bicycle shops eg. this shops used to sell Dahons but stop being a distributor, that shop now not selling 3sixty anymore etc etc

its a little confusing who's selling what brands nowadays.

Do these brands (3Sixty, Pikes, Dahons)only available online (Shopee,Carusell etc)?

you may try to check out Keen to Cycle. they have two branches.

1 outlet at sunway mentari, another 1 at klang jln meru.

they have plenty Pikes to view. do check them out.

Ah Thanks for that info!! Just contact them and currently they only have 3 colours left. I have to think hard between Pikes or 3Sixty. Do this support 107kg-ish guy? or should i wait for the B's? I found out ppl are selling B's like 11k and above at carousell!! 11k!!!! If they goes 7k i maayyyyyy......consider But as of now, maybe Pikes and 3sixty.

basically pikes or 360, they both are similar. not much difference but then you'll see more pikes on the road instead.

not sure on the supported weight for pikes, but the B could support max 110kg.

nowadays the B is running out of stocks from authorized seller. thus, those you see with 11k are from the bloody scalpers.

i bought a cheap fromchina folding bike last year for about rm3xx inclusive of shipping


right now the chain rusted after a few days soaked under rain

tukar kmc chain je lo

or u can try ask in fb group if there's any giveaway for unused chain…pretty much ppl upgraded their chain and the old chain abandoned.

Does folding bike actually go faster? Is it good for exercise or commuting?

If I have a budget of about RM3K, which are the best folding bicycles right now. Preferably wheel a bit bigger and can handle slight off road and on road?

question how do i setup a foldie to shift and feel like a roadie?

1. groupset - do they use mountain groupset or roadie groupset? i see some foldie mix.
2. which groupset for wide range. like 11 speed for mountain and road. Is it needed since its 20"?
3. are there 20" tubular?
