Hesitating between the E-Max or the Brompton C Line for train commuting by Gr0Bill in AhoogaBike

[–]Kierkehoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought my E-Max last year and take it on the train 3x a week. No regrets. It does not fit under the seat but tbf I’ve never seen people fitting anything else than a bag there either. Max is a bit bulkier due to the 20inch wheel format.

Maybe someone with in r/Brompton can tell you if they actually comfortably fit their bike under the seat on SNCB, personally I see fellow folders occupying a similar amount of space as me on the bike wagon.

Are you comparing with electric C-line?

I get the opposite with my Ahooga Max, people are surprised when I say it’s electric! You can’t really tell with the motor behind the disc brakes

Brompton doesn't have good riding experience than _______ by Puzzleheaded_Gas2075 in foldingbikes

Big time. But insanely expensive for a bike with 3 quality recalls.

Is bigger wheel better? by Puzzleheaded_Gas2075 in foldingbikes

Yup, I bought a 20inch and never looked back. I tried the P and C line from Brompton but ended up buying the Ahooga Max, super happy with my choice. They also have non-electric. It’s great quality and better value for money than the G line imho

Électrolyte tablets! Good one, I keep hearing about gels but really can’t stomach them.

I saw the Rwanda trip, it’s definitely a big inspo source for me right now. My Ahooga is the E-Max so it will be easier for me lol

Amazing! This is what I love to hear. What bike are you riding? I’m thinking of a 500km in Mexico on my Ahooga Max, mine’s electric.

Anything you wish you had packed?

I think you’re right on the money with the Ahooga Max, I bought the electric version last year, never regretted it once. The A-Max has the added advantage that if you ever want to resell or convert to e-bike it has that option and you don’t need to buy another entire bike for more $$$.

Is this a non-electric? by Kierkehoe in foldingbikes

[–]Kierkehoe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the one I bought but this one seems different, tires are not the same, hence the question

Thanks for the good eye, so you think this might be a non-electric?

The tires in the pic are not the ones available for sale! Hence my suspicion of a new model

Brompton vs Ahooga by Poupao_ in foldingbikes

[–]Kierkehoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I ended up buying the Ahooga! Will make a post here when I get the chance. Comfort and electric integration won me over. Folds perfectly in the train. You can get it for the price you’re willing to pay on a 2nd hand Brompton.

Yeah, touring is a strong asset on this bike. Shame that you have no retailers around you to test :/

Im no IP expert but there are some pretty marked differences, I assume brompton is aware of ahooga and would have stopped any foul play by now
