upgrade juicy folder

[gray198]

hi,
Is it possible to slightly upgrade Juicy Folder. I enjoy riding it but find it a bit undergeared so wondered if it could be improved. Also front forks are very soft. Is there a better alternative.

regards gray

The gearing on our folders was improved a few years ago using a larger chainwheel. What do you have on yours Gray?

Thanks I'll check that out. It's very apparent in the highest speed setting. Just pedaling fresh air

The current bike has 48. If you call the workshop during the day we can arrange a time to call in, or send the parts you need.

A new chainset and chain is £35 and you can order over the phone. You may need to remove the chain cover if you have one. It's quite an easy change and any bike shop could help if needed.
