yea, some seller in taobao are bike shops..  biggrin.gif

got member ask bout the performance of litepro, bearing smoother? etc.....

here's my review on the litepro rims + kojak tire...

did 28km ride yesterday with my P9
feels easier to get to 9th gear and much lesser resistance (air/road)
with the kojak tires, u really can push and it will just keep going faster n faster
not so bumpy ride, still in comfort zone comparing to stock rims/tire

the Litepro hub performance is really good, very very smooth and almost frictionless
the rear hub also has a nice sound when u cruise the bike

i would say much better than kinetic comp wheelset smile.gif

gonna get another one for my Silvertip smile.gif

Looking for affordable folding bikes.
Right now I'm interested in
- Giant Halfway 7S
- Tern Link C7
- Dahon ECO C7?

May I know among these bikes which is cheapest or most affordable one? Thanks?
Or any idea about other brand?
Thanks smile.gif

i love your black silvertip, really power!!  rclxms.gif

bro the radbot u order online or from sg? power giler.!! mata kucing kenot fight..!
*
thanks H2D, its very power... i can pow most bicycles on the road easily...
the other day when i came out from exit, i saw one group of MTB in front of me... so i catch up with them... saw the last person in the group and greeted them good morning till the 1st person on a 2km uphill and i rockets away! my roadie kaki are also having trouble to pace up with me hehehe
this baby manage to clock on flats 40-42kmph constant and uphills around 20kmph plus

as for the Radbot, its really power!!! beat the mata kucing anytime of the day... its very noticeable in broad daylight... i think it may blind the person behind me in the night... and if a car hits me at night... probably he bey song with my lights hahaha (high powered 1watt LED)
the blinking pattern on this light is very diff from others... it really grabs your attention... check out some youtube vids and u will know what i mean...
i bought this online... around sgd30+

guys,
if you all want to join the bulk, i'm buying for my racing bud a Radbot 1000
costs will be RM95 (after the currency conversion & tax)
i can help u all get and postlaju to your address

the unit takes 2x AAA batt and its removable... the PDW unit is water proof, and you will have to unscrew the back to access the batts.

front lights i'm using Roxim RS3 and strongly recommend it...
you can find some youtube videos in that light as well...

those who interested to join the PDW Radbot 1000 bulk PM me for further details... TQ (just lending a hand & not profiting from this)

panasonic bicycle very famous, u look at the pic above, silvertip dahon using panaracer tyres are from panasonic la... haha

http://panasonicbikemuseum.info/history

but now mebe got fake MIC bicycle put sticker panasonic.. not sure...  tongue.gif
*
back in the 90's got panasonic bikes... but today u tell me 300-500 panasonic bike, i think it's fake...
nowadays, panasonic only focus on the tire/tube industry for bicycle... if you anti western tire, you should go for Panaracer as they are Made in Japan...
however they are not easy to get in local shops... need to import...
