Carryme at Tokyo

Due to work, (really lah), I am back to Tokyo again. This time I took Carryme to do some exploration (after work). Touched down and checked into Shinagawa Strings which is a lovely hotel. Opened the box, screwed on the pedals, flick open the bike and I was out on the bike path in no time. 
 I rode to the direction of tokyo tower, snapped afew photo of the carry me with the lovely view and grab some dinner... it will be a long meeting tomorrow.. I guess my only chance to ride is morning.... Here are first shots of Carryme at Tokyo. I know it looks like a clown bike, but strangely it works and it works just fine! I got to go change the seat to something more comfy though.....

  2. i also need to swap out my carryme's saddle to something more comfy. i saw this one guy use ISM saddles, the kind with the groove in the middle, and he says it helps making the fold more compact because he can fold the handlebar stem in the groove. nice idea eh?

  4. Keep going, man. Keep snapping. I think with a bike we can go a lot further in exploration of the location. It brings more joy and learning at a much faster pace than walking. Driving is a no no with inconvenience of parking; not to mention an unexpected fine that could buy you another Carryme! Please check if you get some good buys for Carryme eg. bike bag or even saddle. Japan could have these nice stuff.
