las and lazer. lazer i got from bikepro

i replace with a new tube but i keep the punctured tube in my back pocket. i only carry one spare, so I will patch up the punctured one if i have to. if i survive the ride, i just throw the old one away.

usually they barricade the transition area, no problem. a lot of people will be there, so the bikes are safe.

only applicable for wide rims. what next? back to 19/20mm?

cornering with 25C on 19/21 rims. dodgy

Rule #35
// No visors on the road.

Road helmets can be worn on mountain bikes, but never the other way around. If you want shade, see Rule #22.

feel free not to follow the rules.

hardly see roadies wear visors. why do you choose to use g-string, tranny, cross-dressing, as your example? have u been skipping on your medication again?

SSX = super sexseh!
racun.... racun....

i tot alloy frames ride harsher than carbon frames? my first frame was alloy, it was a very harsh ride. rough road, painful wrists. then changed to carbon, much better!

unless u wanna try caad10?

mainly the reason tt bikes are not allowed in a group ride (drafting), is because of the aerobar. having said that, riding on a roadbike with clip-on aerobars are also frowned upon. because like butthead said, it can limit your handling and slow down your reflexes when you go into aero position. personally i have nothing against tt bikes and aerobars. just that i would keep a distance from riders with aerobars tucked in aero position.

there are other reasons, but that's the main one.

before getting an aerobar, check your handlebar first. is there enough level space to mount the aerobar clamp? some handlebars have very small level area just enough for the stem faceplate.

how to describe ah? i used to own ritchey handlebar. the bar slopes down right after the faceplate for about 2 inches both sides. so when i clamped the aerobar, it didn't complete hold onto the handlebar.

just make sure the handlebar has enough level space to mount the aerobar. if not, sell the existing one and get a new one. i sold my ritchey and bought deda newton. deda newton had enough space to mount the aerobar.

not so much about speed. i guess the objective is, to use less energy at the same speed. unless u can take turns to pull/draft in the race. correct me if i'm wrong.

damn ugly shifters

if you want to cycle on unlit roads, get the expensive ones like magicshine. you'll get the batteries too. but you will have to strap the battery pack onto your top tube.

another one is roxim, compact, no separate battery pack. but the price is rm198 excluding batteries. if you buy the batteries, you'll come to rm200+ as well.

or you can buy the flashlight type, and buy a bike mount. like ultrafire flashlight, inclusive battery about rm100. but personally i don't like this type, because the beam is narrow and concentrated at the centre. it doesn't disperse much to the sides.

what i personally use is, just a normal cateye headlight. this is 'to-be-seen' type of light. not bright enough to light up dark roads.

for tail light, i use a 3 LED blinker and a skully. the 5 led blinker from cateye is great, but the clamp is bulky and may get in way of your thighs when you cycle.

OR, if you are ok with polygon bikes, for 7k+ u can get Helios 800, complete bike.

not sure about other brands you mentioned.
