hi all,

popularity of the mamachari -jitensha is on a gradual rise. Slowly people in manila are becoming aware of these bikes because of their utility and higher quality.

The obstacles are many but i think the mamachari already has a foot-hold in the philippines.

Suggest you meet up at the saturday night rides in manila and you will see for yourself the skill sancylcles and the malabon people have in restoring these bikes. I myself was impressed.

Cheers !
