My foldie brand is WGM. Quite an unknown brand.

I don't want to accuse that they are brand conscious tho. Not sure why they don't want to even take a look.

Welcome, sorry for late reply. Condition probably 8/10. Yup, able to buy new inserts at $15. Here's how the helmet looks like:

I think i will let others have it coz i am more looking for either plain or dark colour design. Maybe Broadwalk needs this great helmet more than me. Anyway really thanks for the kind gesture. Appreciate it.

Are u able to pinpoint the sound came from where? U look at the chains whether got hit any components when rotating.
Can your gears change properly? The sound only happens when the drivetrain is at certain gears or at all gears?

Hi guys, need some advices.

My foldie has 2 problems.
Front handle bar has creaky sound.
When I pedal, there is a very slight 'cog cog' sound.

I have approached a few neighborhood bike shop in the west area and got turned away. Dun even want to touch my bike. Just hear the problem and told me cannot be solved.

I don't think my bike is that bad. Just brand not famous.

My question, is there any shop that can properly diagnose and troubleshoot bicycle without prejudice? I don't mind paying for service.

I live in the west area.

Thanks!

maybe they think that the cost of the repairs would cost more than your the price you paid for the bike

Why only low-end trigger shifters provide number indication for the gears?
Higher end don't have, and must aga-ration. How come?

Over the past one month whenever I ride my foldie, my seat will keep making a creaky sound. If I ride and lift up my butt, there will be no sound. Only when I sit on the seat .

Any idea what could be the issue ?

Most of the time, I go by feel. Don't really look down at the triggers. Maybe I used to ride late at night where most of the time it is too dark to actually read what's on the triggers also, thus become habit to not really looking down onto the triggers.

My question is why, but not how u manage it.

Your situation is boh bian. Llst. Just like everyone else.

Why do shimano assume we don't need the numbers? I prefer they just leave it there. In fact i prefer them to be luminous at night. Pay so much for their high end triggers but get one less feature?
