of cos can... hehehe..... 
if u r not heavy n don't use it for jumping.....
a good folding joint will last.

u wan full size mtb like montague or wan small wheels.
smaller wheels abit tougher for off road....

schwalbe big apple is a tyre....
small thin tyre prone to pancit  if u jump around too often i think...

what to do, even hanoi vietnam oso now full of motorbikes n cars, very few ppl cycling..

but cities like Amsterdam are facing problems cos too many bicycles....

Dutch cycling utopia threatened by own success

RM 800 or less can get lerun, Raleigh ugo.. china OEM ones.... 

yea, as for speed p8, if still got old model in bike shop better grab... or second hand oso ok, cos not sure the 2013 spec is not the same, the bike components, no pump in the post etc...

I saw Dahons in Tat Seng Cycles in Taman Anggerik, they also have a branch in Kota Kemuning. GW Cycles also have them but GW cycles are quite expensive. I also saw 2 units in Joo Ngan's Son in D'sara Uptown. I think you need to bargain with him, HARD!

I think the Dahon Boardwalk D8 is the limited anniversary version. It has 8 speed and also double walled rims. They also come in a special green colour or white off course.

If you visit them and are serious, there's still some discount.

I am thinking of selling off my Eco 7    Anyone interested?

Hi Bros.  How bout the Oscar imagine, Raleigh ugo and xds bikes ? For budget wise , is this bike ok ? Any review and suggestion ? Thanks

congrats   got it from chin aik?

There's a few option if you want to cycle up Air Itam dam. Easiest is to change the front crank to a roadie bike's crank with 53/39 T and add in a front derailleur and also shifter. The smaller 39T will make the pedalling easier but you also cannot forego the 53T as you will need it too on flat roads. Another is to change to 9 speed which needs your hub to be changed to accomodate the 9 speed 11/34 or 11/36 tooth cassette. This also needs the shifter to be changed and also the rear derailleur. I think modifications to the crank will suffice but off course it would be nice to do both front and rear.

I too plan to ride up Fraser's Hill one day and still trying to train myself up. I modified all the Dahons to 8 speed ( except the Speed P8 which already comes with an 8 speed gearing)with 34T (lowest gear) and plan to look for a used roadie crank and the front derailleur to add later.

Another cheaper option is to train yourself   You have to first pedal at your comfortable level then as you improve try then to pedal at a higher gear (harder) and finally you can use the highest gear at flat roads comfortably. Then increase your cadence ( your rpm on pedalling ) and up to a certain comfortable level. The cadence must be maintain at all gears at the same pedalling force. Once you acheive this, I think you should be able to cycle up the dam at the lowest 28 tooth gear.

Just starting to cycle up the dam at this instance is not possible unless you push and ride, push and ride, where push is more than riding and going down, you need to get used to the bike itself as first time foldie users will find the steering twitchy!    Happy riding!

yup, stay in pg.
