Very good video, thank you! It is nice seeing more videos about helix. They are working on some accessories and also an electric version of it. I saw many comments regarding the Alfine hub. If you are still active on RUclips, would be nice to hear about your long-term experience in more detail. Thank you for the vids!
When the helix is folded and you leave the handlebars up, can you push it along that way too? I always push my brompton around with the handlebars in trolley mode, it’s a very convenient way to bring it!
Hi, I have also brompton and I know what you mean. Brompton is mooving in folded position by small wheels. On Helix is it little different. You can push Helix in folded position by holding seat (handlebar is not comfortbale), but it is little in angle to side and you move it on his own front wheel. Look at helix web site (helix.ca) or on youtube and you will see how it works.
@@duritraveller Ah I was hoping I could push it by the handlebars too, but it still looks better than most other folding bikes at least! If you could make a video attempting to push it by the handlebars that would be great! It´s kind of hard to find anyone with a helix to try it out haha
Hi, yes. I have 3 bicycles: Standard trek bike 29´´ - I use it only for bike trip with luggage (tent, sleep bag and so) - for realy long rides. Then I have brompton bike - I dont use it from time, when I bought helix. And Helix I use most of the time. I still like it very much. For its light, comfort ride and easy folding. Only think which dont work so well is shimano alfine hub 11 speed - it some times switch to different gear and make "crack" sounds. It happens probably from offen foldings/unfoldings.
@@duritraveller thx for the prompt reply as I am considering acquiring a helix with the 11 speed alfine. I have a Cannondale Hooligan bike with the 11 speed alfine as well and find 2nd gear slips occasionally. The 8 speed alfine I have in my Moulton bike never slips at all.
@@davel2734 I was on local bikeservice to ask what can I do with 11 alfine to fix it, and they say me, that 8 and 11 alfine have the same body, but in 11 is more components and there is not enought space - there fore it happens. On 8 alfine it works smoothly. So If I had this information before, I will order clasic shift gear (lighter and cheaper version).

I just found this bike exists 😮
Can anyone give me an advice to deliver to Tashkent
ask directly producer on www.helix.ca. They ship it with FedEx. So if is working FedEx in Uzbekistan, It probably can be delivered to Tashkent.
