Sunday Ride at Butterworth...

Can we fit Topeak Aero Wedge with tradisional strap? Not those quick release clip type.

If the saddle bags uses velcro straps, then it is possible to hang under the seats!

Moon saddle.......hmmm........... one slip and down onto the top tube and the whole perineum plus your scrotums will be affected. Hahaha!

Looks like gonna fall off easily

No way bro....
Unless u just started to ride the bicycle yesterday...

Even so it is unlikely, cos when u ride abike ur hands n feet r supported...
U r not riding with ur hands n feet all up in the air...
N the butt is not sitting on the edge...hard to explain here...

Looks r deceiving until u hv tried it.,..

Thanks a lot..

Oh, I wouldn't use the Kinetix Pro to go riding on off roads..


I had planned it such that I have two sets of working wheelsets, each with its own 9 speed cassette:
One set is Kinetix Pro with the Kojaks 20 x 1.35

The other set is Kinetix Comp/ Neutron with the Big Apples 20 x 2.00


So, I can choose which wheelset to use for what kind of riding conditions:

Ride to cover long distances / ride to work / need to get somewhere fast => Kinetix pro and Schwalbe Kojaks
Ride through forest trails or carry heavy loads /luggage bags or slow comfortable rides or explore unfamiliar towns and roads = > Kinetix Comp and schwalbe Big apples


Now with more exposure to the two wheelsets, I find that the bike will take on two different personalities if I were to change the wheels between the Kojaks and the Big Apples.

Kojaks = extremely light, fast to accelerate, easier to roll on level road, use less effort to pedal but offer less protection to the rims, very highly sprung due to the high air pressures, you can almost feel every small stone you ride over, (once the tyres went over some small stones and one went flying, and if the rider is heavy, the stones could catapult and be dangerous to other road users), less comfortable but easier to ride, less sweaty after a ride.

Big Apples = heavier, slower to pick up speed, not so easy to roll on level road, uses more effort to pedal, but more protection for the rims, absorbs the uneven roads and more comfortable to the rider (if you were to ride slowly), but end up with more sweat due to more energy used.


In the end, it depends on what I would like the bike to do for me.
Personally, I would prefer the Kojaks as they are light, I don't end up so tired at the end of a ride. Also if need to carry the bike up the steps to use the LRT is also much easier.

But if its an off road ride, then will use the Big Apples, sometimes it is just so much more fun to ride through the cool, shady forest trails with the jungle sounds all around... and end up with a rewarding dip in some waterfall.

Hi there, how much did you purchase the Hummer Folding Bike for? I am also looking for one but it is kinda hard to get a shop that sells this. Appreciate your reply. Thanks!

I see here selling Rm850

Thanks for the info. Do you have a link which you are able to share?

No link.. my fren bought it in Melaka

I see... yea I was going around a few shops but non to be seen. Saw a link sometime ago that a shop in Bukit Mertajam carries the bike, but no idea what is the price tag.

Anyone has heard or is currently riding on a Louis Garneau LGS-POP? Any comments on the bike?

Don't tempt me la.. If I test it and fall in love wif moon saddle, sure I'll b dreaming of it..

This one also I went with my fren to purchase. In fact both of them are satisfied with LGS and both of them bought it. One dark blue and another white. RM850 foc bottle carrier and blinker. This bike came preinstalled with bell. 8 speed and a nice simple bike. Using Shimano Atlus gear. Better than Raleigh Ugo as Ugo only have 7 speed. Other than that, most of the accessories are bout the same with Raleigh Ugo. Btw, the only con is the seat. Raleigh Ugo seat more comfortable than LGS. Btw, I am riding Raleigh Ugo hence I am able to compare with it.

Do a search in this thread, they ada mentioned which shop in pg got sell.

Nice... RM850 is a good price! Which shop?

Melaka at Jalan Ong Kim Wee.
