That is why I need some advise, at least if I bought a budget foldie, I know that foldie will still be able to mod it and last for couple of years. biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

that's why no more budget recommendation for newbie.

newbie always thought after they bought the budget bike then can upgrade later…yes, it's"upgradeable" technically, but it's pointless.

because you won't want to replace all gooding parts to your budget bike frame anymore. in the end you will just sell it as whole and buy a new bike.

kawan, as you have yet to dip your legs into the water, then this is the best advice for you - dont mod. it's not worth it.

best is straight up get a good one. one time investment and last you long time of ride. you buy a budget one, some time down the road you either dont feel like riding it any more, or you spend much much more to mod than you would have purchased a good one outright before you started buying one.

ppl like me already bought, and no more chance to change another bike within foreseeable time, then modding is the only option to give me a reason of continuing riding it.

Thank you for the advise. icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif
