Dear all A-Bike users, and A-Bike manufacturers.
Happy New 2015 !!
As a A-Bike user, starting 2009 with a 6" copy, and today riding a 8" copy. I have the following wishes, for the A-Bike manufacturers for 2015:
Pls., avoid to be a product killer! Lot's of newbies buy once, and never again.
1.- Still to improve the telescope tube clamps. No cut, into the extreme of the aluminium telescope tubes pls. Extend the clamp, to embrace the upper telescope tube, as suggested in a prior post.
2.- Increase the thickness, of the rear lower telescope tube, to at least 3 mm pls.
3.- Use a branded 12 teeth freewheel pls.
4.- Use new ball bearings, and not used ones pls. And use a separator, for the bearings in the front wheel.
5.- Use good quality solid rubber for the wheels pls. Might be, an all plastic wheel, has no problem on the unbonded interface, between metal and solid rubber. Picture, of a sample wheel, attached.
That is the most important.
Thanks Cris from Chile
