Bike to Work 2: Strida or Pacific Carryme Bike ?

[@runcycleskixc]

Thank you for this!. Folding the pacific one seems quite fiddly. Especially the knob -- one has to twist and twist and twist it again... I will have to give an extra minute when arriving for that commuter train... Also, there are standard inflatable 200mm wheels available, not sure why not use them (with disk brakes)

Thank you for sharing this unique folding bikes. Commute frequently on bus and MRT, Rifle Ibike 4, a small built, 14 inches wheel set, weight only 7.5kg is my preferred choice.

9:48 You don't need the velcro band to fix the folded handlebars in position, but just closing the quick-release you opened in 9:38

hi, i just bought a strida LT. However, I have difficulty pulling the wheels apart from the magnet when trying to unfold the bike. Unless I place my hand on both wheels and forcefully pull them apart. Would you happen to have any advice? My rear wheel magnet is loose (is it supposed to be that way? It can move side to side and rotate).

[@si9ina]

Nevermind. I just realize that i need to use the handle to twist it open and not pull it open. It easy to unfold the bike now. haha

[@ATCyclingCanal]

Ok Si9ina, yes twist not pull 😄👍🙏

[@temiongcecilio]

Appreciate the demo. Safe biking. Can you list the price of each bike. Liked & Subscribed. God bless.

[@ATCyclingCanal]

Hi Temiong, depend on each country. But roughly each bike cost less than usd2000,-

By the time one fold the CM.. train n buses would hv already left the station/stop 😅

[@ATCyclingCanal]

Yes, you are right about that. They should consider the QR system than knob sistem to make quick the folding proses. But anyway, diff bike has diff system, I just try to overcome some deficiencies of the product. Thanks for watching and comments. Pls check my other episodes that interets you and please subscribe of you dont mind. Thanks again

[@palmcrazysg]

so which is your choice bike? Strida or Carryme? Why?

[@ATCyclingCanal]

For size and weight matter, I would choose Carryme. It is ideal for city ride, commuters.😁

[@purpledonatello]

Although I was temping to buy one, I widthdraw because of the length and maintenance. Why does it have to stand tall up to your waist when folded? Your going to have to fit it sideways in areas like your car. Why use rear brake drums when easy better to use brake pads instead. Look it up it is a pain to maintence. Dust built up locks the wheel, and bearings to bad. Those wheels dont last. More popping tubes overtime. Good luck finding them i stores because they dont sell them and those chains to replace. I say theres better options.

[@ATCyclingCanal]

Yes, each has unique feature and depend on each preference. I would suggest to find the most suitable essential bike. For me it is one of my bike collection that opened to many upgrade amd modification.

[@purpledonatello]

@@ATCyclingCanal good point. My feelings have changed daily of my views on this small bike. I'm not a hard-core cyclist and I don't often use my 14 folding bike. This is probably a good time to get one, but the price. Yikes! Can it get a little lower?

[@ATCyclingCanal]

@@purpledonatello : In my living country just now, no sales available anymore for this bike. Could because not so popular but nice to collect and keep one. But my last purchased price was half of Brompton or Birdy 😃

[@shafiahahmad9156]

the carry me bike is not that good. That's why the buyer wants to sell it back.

[@ATCyclingCanal]

O really, sorry to hear that. Is there buy back option from the seller?
