Tipidpc Folding bike users (TFB)

  • Sa may Lancaster Imus kami sir. May nakita rin ako fb group ng Lancaster bikers, try siguro namin sumama pag medyo confident na mag bike wife ko sa road. Naiilang pa siya kapag may sasakyan eh.

    Try din namin punta minsan dyan sa daang hari, pero sa ngayon sa loob muna kami ng village. hehe.
  • Vermosa tayo mga boss.

    @toonice,
    sama mo esmi mo doon dahil sports complex talaga siya safe and sound.
  • May kaibigan akong nagpunta na dyan para sa crossfit event nila. Hindi ba need ng membership dyan sir?
  • No need sir, kung gagamit ka lang ng track and field at swimming pool Lap may bayad. pero open to public no need for a registration.
  • mga sir pwede pa recommend na sulit bilhin na bike gears. Helmet, front and rear lights saka kung ano pa yung ibang essentials. Not sure if okay na ba yung mga nabibili sa shopee/lazada.
  • @toonice

    Kung helmet go to bike shops mismo para ma fit mo ng tama wag mo tipirin ito best investment mo for your own safety. Okay lang naman sa lazada kung lights habol mo.
  • Sige sir noted yung pag fit sa bike shops. Pero baka may marecommend ka din bang for the buck na brand. hehe
  • Met crossover helmet

    nasa 2k, may rear light

    kaysa bumili ka ng Sagmit o kung anong kopya ng kilalang brand..wag mong tipirin ang safety gear..mas mahal ang mabaldado

    check mo rin yun Sandugo Kranos, 1.7k lang, kaso parang pang trail yun kaysa casual ride

    sa ilaw, okay na yung Raypal
  • Nagback read ako sa thread mula page 1. Haha ang tagal ko binasa pero ang dami ko rin natutunan. Sana ginawa ko yun before ako bumili para mas na weigh yung initial bike choices ko. Ngayon ko lang nagets yung mga recommendation.

    Nakakatuwa din makita yung progress ng mga tao dito, from minimal knowledge to almost experts na.

    Sulitin ko na lang muna yung bike. Same na weekends ko pa lang din naman nagagamit at hindi pa talaga super long rides. Yung goal pala namin sana ay makabyahe from Imus to Tagaytay. I know mas malapit na yung imus compared sa ginagawa ng iba, tanong lang ano kaya magandang training gawin para masabi na ready na ako bago i-attempt na mag byahe pa Tagaytay?

    Sa fitness status ko naman, getting back in shape pa lang ako, I used to run sa mga fun run and train weekly pero 21km pa lang yung pinakamalayo ko.
  • @toonice

    try niyo mag ride sa moa every weekend sir. maaga syempre para hindi pa mainit. hehehe
  • good pm sa lahat.. san po pwd makabili ng mini velo? yung pwd po iship dito sa mindanao.
  • Guys meron ba sa inyo alam kung ano spoke size and length ng Hubu F610 sa rear wheel? Hindi ko kasi alam paano i-measure gusto ko sana palitan ng spokes. Ginamitan ko ng tape measure estimate ko parang nasa 180mm. Ang alam ko lang is 20x1.35 yung tire size. Patulong naman. thanks

    Depende yan chief sa goal mo. Ano ba hanap mo sa bike? Do you just like it because it's unique? Tama ba na PHP36k ang price sya locally? Are you going to use it as commuter? Anong feature ang mga hanap mo e.g. mahalaga ba syo yung mga rack? Are you looking for upgradability? Have you considered the spec especially the drivetrain and wheels?

    From what it's worth, eh ikaw lang makakasagot nyan chief sa kung ano ang swak sa preference mo.

    Hindi ko pa natry yung Nyfti Raio 2.0 pero maganda naman reviews niya. Yung relative ko who is an avid folding bike collector, for a long time naging daily driver niya ang Nyfti Raio and he rode it to work on a daily basis. Since he bikes from Las Pinas all the way to Makati / Pasay area, I'm sure its a sturdy and reliable bike. Also very competitive ang price niya (Php 25K sa Facebook) compared to other premium folding bikes from Tern, Dahon, Fnhon, CRIUS etc.

    Personal opinion ko lang, yung Nyfti Raio would make a good long distance folding bike. It has bigger wheels (20-inch) which allows you to use wider tires for a more comfortable ride. Also it has a long wheelbase so you won't get that twitchy feel when riding at slower speeds or when turning into a tight corner. I also like na meron siyang rear rack so you can stow your bag and other gear out of the way. Yung components niya are mostly off-the-shelf parts na available sa atin, so very upgradeable and customizable with the exception lang siguro of the frame.

    Size-wise and weight-wise hindi siya as small or as light as other folding bikes. But for a relatively large folding bike with 20-inch wheels, very compact ang fold niya and it is designed to be pushed like a stroller rather than be carried.



    Siguro it depends on what you are looking for in a folding bike and ano yung riding preferences mo...

    If you plan to do bimodal commuting and you will only bike short distances or carry the bike most of the way, better option mga smaller sized bikes like yung 3Sixty which is a Brompton clone. Yung smaller wheels and more compact fold will allow you to bring it inside the bus or MRT / LRT na hindi masyado hassle. Price is almost the same at Php 27.8K last I checked, and definitely a lot cheaper than an original Brompton. Yung downside is these bikes have very limited gearing and yung small wheels can make it tiring to pedal or maintain speed dahil sa higher rolling resistance.

    If you plan to bike longer distances like from your home to the workplace and you will only fold-and-carry the bike when bringing it inside the premises, a bigger foldie like the Nyfti Raio would be a better option. Also if you are into upgrades like having more gears, lighter parts, better wheels, etc mas open to upgrades ang mga bigger folding bikes. The downside of these bikes is the weight since they can be heavy to carry up a flight of stairs and when folded they still take up a lot of space. So baka hindi practical bringing it along a tightly packed MRT train or bus.

  • @sleepygeepy thanks alot for a very comprehesive response you made very interesting point and advices .. I will definitely consider these when I decided to get a new bike. For now, I bought a second hand dahon mariner d7 from a previois fb user and I am not truly sure if it was worth it instead of getting brand new one, I was swayed by the cheap price offer of 15k.. Ive checked the part and most of it or maybe all of it seems all stock but not sure sine I didnt own one before. Overall it looks like it will gonna last 3 years depending on my usage. Anyway, thank you very much!
  • @sleepygeepy how much yang FB mo bro? and saan mo nabili? TIA
  • Hi, saan na kakabili ng Doppelganger Seat post? salamat

  • baka may ma suggest kayo 20"x1.5 tires....
  • Mga sir bumigay na yung stock na pedal nung trinx dolphin 2.0 ko. Nabiyak sa gitna.

    Good replacement po ba yung LitePro M258 Pedal? or may iba pa kayo marerecommend?
  • Magandang araw po, naghahanap po ako ng recommendation. 20" sana na folding bike, alloy kasi bubuhatin sa building. Panglakad, exercise at pamasok po dito sa Metro Manila. 7-10k po ang budget na kaya adjust kung kailangan. Ok lang sa akin used.
