i wonder where can i get foldable bicyle in KL area?

How much you bought your mu-P8? Besides the weight and design Speed -P8 and mu-P8 ... all looks the same only... i prefer mu-P8 for the nice curve design...

Speed P8 is cromoly frame while the Mu is aluminum. The Speed should "ride" better ...less vibration but heavier and risk of rusting.

where to get dark blue mu p8 in pj or kl areas???????? how much exactly, damn i kena racun d !!

Hi guys, I'm currently doing my own online business. I'm selling bicycle and also it's accesories and parts. Kindly visit my blog http://mtbpros2.blogspot.com . For enquiries, you may email me at mtbpros@gmail.com or add me at my msn mtbpro@hotmail.com

sigh this forum not efficient at all , nobody reply wan sien

I got mine for 2k+. It's really being sold for 2.3k but you can ask for discounts.

In terms of differences, I guess it's really about the bike parts. I wanted the Speed P8 because if the specifics (Big Apple tires, chromoly frame) but the Mu p8 was one of my top options.

It's better to have a list of bikes you like and then go to the shop to test ride them all so that you can see exactly what feels better for you to ride.

I used to run 1.25 conti's and wanted to change to Big Apples for better comfort... the boss recommended 20x2.0 Cheng Sin tyres which I was skeptical initially.. but at the end, it turned out better than expected. Good grip in the wet and rolls quite well too. Best of all... it's cheap

speed p8 and mu p8 same price ?

really? hmmm... i might wait for my current tires to wear out first. don't want unnecessary expenses so soon. hehehe.

btw, i'm also interested in getting a microfolding bike since the mup8 is kinda large and bulky for me (the size of a small full sized bike) and i have a hard time carting it around when folded. have you ever heard about Pacific Bike's Carry Me? it folds thin and long on 8 inch wheels. it looks awesome.





they're the same makers as birdy and airnimal so i trust them. i'm off to singapore this weekend to check them out. hopefully, if they fit me right, i might come back to KL with one.

I tried that before and frankly.. I rather be rollerblading

It's too "circus bear".

If its carting about that you're after, Brompton lor... fold the rear stays and push it around.

do you feel like a circus bear because you're tall? i'm really short (4'11) so it might be sort of ok sized on me. but we'll see. and honestly, a brompton is expensive for a 2nd bike!!!

Any one here know where to get KHS T3 or T33 in Malaysia or singapore???

I think that's quite difficult as T3 is produced mainly for the Taiwanese market.

Added on June 13, 2009, 11:00 pmSince my wife won't be riding for the next year or so (will probably get her a new bike) so I've made some small unnoticeable modifications to my
Giant Halfway 07.

Here's how she looks like now:





Fitted the wider 580mm flat bar from my mtb.... better control than the stock 560mm low riser. Climbs better too as the front's now lower



Changed the grips to biologic ones... cheap and cheerful. The shape is better for long rides as it minimizes numbness. And of course, there's the essential bell



Fitted a 11-30T freewheel ... the stock Halfway is seriously undergeared (14T only). This allows for a higher top speed. A long cage Deore rear mech from my MTB is also added



Also changed the "sofa" type saddle to my pre-loved WTB Rocket V (best bang for buck saddle ever created) from my MTB



Lastly, also changed the slippery and heavy stock folding pedal to these.... Wellgo's new QRD-M079 pedals with quick release. Can easy remove the pedal when buying a quick drink in 7-11 to avoid ppl riding away with your bike. It's also so grippy enough that I'm considering changing my MTB's pedal to these as well

hi, verry interesting la... any sugesstion where to buy this kind of folding bike in kl or selangor(can somebody give a shop full adress)?

hi..i am mainly travelling between taiwan, china...i wondering should i buy either GIANT or DAHON foldable bike in taiwan, china or in malaysia? any one any idea which place is cheaper?

thanks

For GIANT, Taiwan's cheaper. You can refer to the prices on the link below.. as for where to buy, there's loadsa Giant shops all over Taiwan so just ask the hotel or taxi driver which is the nearest to you. The prices are pretty much fixed as well, no discounts except for 10% off to be spent on accessories.

Ex: NTD10,000 bike... pay NTD10,000 and get NTD1000 worth of accessories of your choice.

As for Dahon, I'm not quite sure as China have their own specific models like the Jane and Archer. These are stated "China Domestic Model" on the rear stays.

Hope that helps
