You should set the current saddle position based on your previous saddle's position.

Mine saddle position is the reverse of yours. All the way to the back

Hi bike specialist,

Can you recommend a fold-able bike with child seat attached. Reason why is because of space constraint and I would like to carry a child seat for my child (9 mths old) - can sit on her own well.

She is ard 10kg while I'm 95kg. Can recommend is this do-able and where can i buy?I stay at West.TIA

Feels more comfortable like that. But have not tried it yet , will cycle and adjust I Guess. Because the stock saddle was not adjusted to my comfort anyway. Haha

What's your Budget? I know both Brompton and Birdy have child seat support.

OK chain experts..

I have a problem with my brompton now.

I clocked about 1200-1400 km on my original brompton before deciding to swap to a bigger chainring. Since the chain has to be longer to accommodate, three chain links were added by the bike mechanic a few months back.

I cycled for another 400-500 km before i noticed the transmission gets noisy. I took out the sprockets (or cassette for non brompton peeps) and cleaned them before putting back. During the checking, i realized the chain simply couldn't sit properly inside the sprockets.

Chain, chain ring and sprockets are all 3/32.

If its derailleur problem, there should be chain rubbing and jumping between the sprockets.

Is it due to the difference in the rate of wear and tear of the original chain and the chain links?

Thanks!

Brompton only one place , mightyvelo. Birdy better got 2 places , cyclelogy and ewalker
The demo set on the kinetic trainer at mightyvelo has the seat mount already in place.
