Haha just saw your new bike pics this afternoon. Nice color, congrates.. AERO all the way.. thumbup.gif

So fast want to change to ceramic bearing? I tried to look for the hub info on Mavic site but they only have hub service guide, tire pressure guide, user guide and catalog....

a quick search on ebay, not sure if is the matching model: link

Update us if you found anything on the ceramic bearing, maybe can do the same on my mavic too tongue.gif

try contacting creative mill... they are the authorized distributor for ceramic speed in malaysia...

ceramic speed has wheel bearing kits for most wheels... you just need to find out what bearing sizes your cosmic elite is running... if they have the information for your wheel, then all is good.. if not, you have lots of research ahead of you...

not going to be cheap but ceramic speed is one of the best if not the best ceramic bearing makers...

i think the recent years cosmic elites run on 1 x 6001 and 2 x 608..

to start you off...

http://creativemill.net/contact

ceramic speed online store
http://shop.ceramicspeed.com/products/132-...grade-kits.aspx

try digging around mavic tech site and see if you can find bearing information on the model you have... make sure you get the year model of your cosmic elite correct...

HUMMER is China brand?

i always thought HUMMER is USA brand which from HUMMER car!

for folding bikes, you might want to check out the Folding bike trading @ Damansara Perdana...

StarMetro features them few weeks back. you might want to checks out what's model available there and not model you wish for if you're desperate to start your cycling...

i believe they can offer you valueable opinion on bike size.

like what vin_ann said...check out the experts first...

you can also check out the folding bike thread first and see if it is sold or anyone knows anything about the bike there... it sunk to page 2 in sports channel... but people is still contributing if there is posts i think...

Folding Bicycle like...........Dahon?, Any Idea..??? Please contribute.. Thx

generally i think it should not be a problem as folding bikes are already very tiny by comparison in general...

do they need a bag... i thought it is just the bike itself...

it is understandable why only folding bikes are allowed as they do take up much less space than any MTB or road bikes...

furthermore.. it is just a publicity move... who can ever get onto an LRT during rush hour let alone lugging a big hunk of metal beside you... then, you will get cursed by the people standing beside you because your dirty chain hit their dress and stuff like that....

That's why quick release links on the chain is important. So you can quickly release the link, take out the chain, wrap it around your fist and whack them a good one smile.gif

all you need is put into bag! then no need worry about your dirty chain !

last time in Taiwan i saw one guy came out from MRT with his roadbike in a big bag. open bag, put on front wheel and he is ready to go.

i'm not sure whether his roadbike is flat bar and folding type... did not observe closely.
