Want to ask what kind of maintenance do you guys do on your bikes? Do you clean the tires every week? Add lubricant to the chainset and cassette?

QUOTE(miyakochan89 @ Jan 2 2022, 02:34 PM) I just checked with Rodalink, the only model they have available is B7 in the store. They are also affected by the global shortage right? Also this sounds like everyone else has already bought all the other models.Unless i buy from Rodalink Shopee, then got the D9, but I don't know how to tune them lah. And also need to fix the bicycle out of the box. I rather buy from shops. Weird that they don't have stock in their stores. lol. This post has been edited by engseng: Jan 2 2022, 07:11 PM |

QUOTE(azamunekurone @ Jan 2 2022, 08:06 PM) so how everyone weekend? today got rain here in ipoh, but manage to cycle a bit before my tyre koyak. Schwalbe One is the tyre used on the Tern Verge bicycles? after intensive used and thousands+ km of this vittoria townee, i wont recomended for heavy usage like me it does a good job, grip, comfy and semi slick. price also not too pricey. but for long usage and milage eater, i would stick to continental contact sport or schwalbe marathon racer.other option in my head is schwalbe one, but too pricey and i dont like skin/yellow tan wall color. i do however saw this tyre come in black at indonesia through fb element pikes indonesia, just have to wait for a while maybe can get it here later. |

 We know many Tern customers are experiencing long waits for bikes and accessories—and we hear how frustrated you are. We’re so sorry that these delays have impacted your riding experience. The bottom line is, we can’t produce bikes and accessories fast enough right now. We haven’t been able to fulfill market demand anywhere in the world—it’s not just your country or region. This is particularly true of highly popular accessories like the Clubhouse+ and Transporteur Rack. That’s because the global COVID crisis did two things simultaneously: it boosted demand for bikes and related products sky high while causing end-to-end chaos in the supply chain. A Note About Delivery Delays How come COVID-19 increased demand for bicycles?  |

QUOTE(miyakochan89 @ Jan 7 2022, 08:45 AM) By the way, since Dahon and Tern are like famous brands. But it seems like Dahon and Tern price differences are quite huge. Why ah? Is the quality difference very huge too between Dahon and Tern? Dahon seems so much more affordable. Which Dahon model are you comparing to the Tern Verge D9? |

QUOTE(miyakochan89 @ Jan 13 2022, 08:44 PM) I probably won't scout so much lah. For me warranty and convenience and reliability are my main concerns when i purchase things. So im looking at brands that are already pre-made like Dahon or Tern. Cause they are reputable and have authorised dealers. The rest mix & match sets like Fnhon and etc, i am not experts so im afraid that i might get conned by people spinning spinning spinning. What stocks are available now?just FYI, all those bicycle shop (tern dealers) that i contacted before, they all sent the same messages to me today. Tern's stocks are in already. xD |

QUOTE(miyakochan89 @ Jan 16 2022, 11:35 AM) Both shops notify me that the Tern is in stock now. Yes, you should get it if you need it now. Here's an X11 review for your viewing pleasure:Kimbell Jaya did notify me that there’s a shipment coming in for Tern, so I guess all of them receive their stocks now. I’m still considering to get it or not. XD Hmmm, no kick-stand or pedals included. This post has been edited by engseng: Jan 16 2022, 01:59 PM |

QUOTE(miyakochan89 @ Jan 17 2022, 03:11 PM) wow where did you cycle to? Do you cycle alone? Want to ask if your Tern Verge D9 has the Schwalbe One tyres and hydraulic disc brakes?I just got my Tern D9. Very happy with it.  It's also good for my mom who is in her 60s. She enjoys it very much cause it's lightweight compared to the big and heavy MTB. Im glad that she could exercise more also. |

QUOTE(lynnssssss @ Jan 25 2022, 09:01 PM) Hi all - i'm looking for a folding bike as well, plan to pick up cycling to keep fit You can check out Brompton prices here: Brompton Folding Bikes, my budget around RM 3k.After google around, seems like Brompton is high recommended. However when i ask around, seems like it is out of stock and the waiting list is very long. So want to get this also hard, i need to move to next option. So i need some advice, since Brompton is the best #1, what is the #2 or #3 brand to consider? The most important criteria for me is easy to fold and not too heavy, i'm just a small girl with 48kg. I tried to read most of the recent posts as well, Tern, Dahon and Pikes was mentioned alot - any specific model that u can recommend me? thanks so much! |

QUOTE(miyakochan89 @ Jan 28 2022, 09:21 AM) Wow the price for Brompton really double the price of Tern. What makes it so special? From what I have read, the bicycles use premium parts eg. Brooks saddle, Schwalbe Marathon Racer and the bikes are hand-made in the UK itself. Seems like Brompton wants to be for folding bicycles like how BMW is for cars, Leica for cameras and Apple for computers.This post has been edited by engseng: Jan 31 2022, 10:56 AM |
