butthead, that rudy u posted, rydon. very good choice.

i own a rudy and an oakley.

frame choice is very subjective. i love my oakley as the frame suits me fine and it hugs me face firmly.

both rudy n oakley build quality is excellent. can't argue on that.

the lens. my personal opinion, oakley wins hands down. my rudy came with two sets of lenses; racing red supposedly for contrast and low light, and multilaser blue for neutral and bright light. my oakley came with blue lens for contrast.

when i wore my rudy, especially in the morning or when i cycled under shaded area, i had to remove my rudy because i couldn't see properly. my oakley, i never had to remove it as i could see clearly under shaded area, and good enough to block very bright light.

Last time i saw a chinese chick ride her SantaCruz MTB at kiara the frame itself already 6K.
Last Saturday, saw another chick with her Giant XTC n take out her wheelset fit in to her car by herself, she alone.

i dunno if it's rydon... has this line been around for more than 10 years?

and i jus cincai picked one i can afford back then.. the one that looked like what ullrich wore was RM30 if i recall correctly more (damn kiamsiap la back then).. and it was hurtin my gonads... so i picked the ones i could have afforded without much considerations of whether it felt good wearing or it suits my face type sorta shit...

now buying glasses is like so damn technical... you got square face, you wear this, round face wear that, face like donkey, go plant it in the sand...

i just posted a picture that looks similar to mine from google... i haven't use much shades.. so, my opinions are rather limited... for me, shades shouldn't cost too much since it is a fragile thing.. you either break it using it or some fat lady will sit on your expensive shades if you accidentally leave it around...

for me now... the only shades i have is clear lens ones... those cheap ass ones from BBS.. jus using it to block winds from getting in my eyes (suddenly playing smoke gets in your eyes in my head)...

i know there is a girl riding in kiara on a weekly basis... but i think mostly on sundays... never really noticed what bike it was... but seemed to never venture into the trails often...

just know the jersey looks like those stripy candy.

hahah... aiyoh... you kena poison in PD is it... or termakan nasi kangkang???

it's always my definition to gauge how wealthy a rider is by what they wear...

from top down
1) a more than 500 buck helmet, Giro Aeon
2) a pair of thousand buck shades, Oakley Pitboss (most expensive oakleys, am i rite?)
3) full top of the line Assos gear, bib, jersey, summer base layers or defeet unD ICE, easily a RM1.5k setback
4) defeet aerator / wooelater sock
5) pair of cool shoes like mavic huez
6) add on some blingy stuff like those rare metal bracelet shit which costs a bomb all over his neck, wrist, ankle and who knows his wedding vegetables

and there he has easily bought over my bike with what he wore on his body.... and in the process... made me feel crappy about cycling...

i'm a loyal fan of alberto contador too... don't see me riding a specialized tarmac SL4, using prologo saddles, speedplay pedals and SRAM.. ooooppssss... i am using the last 2 item whistling.gif

take 10 paracetamol and wait for fever to pass la... i think it's just your brains playing tricks on you... you don't want to regret buying tons of pointless cycling crap after you regain your brain functions and logic...

that's like getting drunk and impulsively getting in bed with a hot girl and suddenly recall mid-way through that you are actually married... bad news... divorce paper coming and half your assets flushed down the toilet...

anything branded is expensive... accept the reality or go see dom cobb...

i like my jerseys plain as bread... just a plain dull color with a couple of stripes is the wildest i'll go...

i think it's time you see your doctor before your fever gets too high and you venture into the assos online shop and rack up a couple of full virtual supermarket trolleys and proceed to charge it to your credit card with overnight shipping...

wat... see doctor more you blame the doctor.. apa theory tu? cannot be that you didn't take care of yourself with a little TLC (dun think the wrong things) drink herbal soup everyday, eat fruits, eat less meat more veg... and stuff... doctor everyday also sneeze la li tat kena kutuk by you...

like i see my GF more i blame her for it is it? while the actual ulterior motive is because i am 'salty wet' to get into her pants and stuff....

you are a dangerous person and salesman punya favourite customer... it's like the idiot who never learns and keeps coming back, brain blank as a slate for them to brain wash...

wat is left east wind body??? sounds like an epic fart...

i think each lube has it's quirks... super light lube like morgan's race lube is best applied by dripping 1 drop per link patiently and slowly and not squirt it on while back pedaling.. light lube is great but i feel that it doesn't last long.. i have used before motorex and that no matter what i do, will end up with a dirty chain within 1 weekend...

i have since returned to using Finish Line teflon lube... much cleaner in my experience... quite runny but not as viscous as motorex...

other factors is that you did not clean your chain enough... a real way of telling is that the chain gets dark almost immediately after applying lube especially the super thin ones as they seep into the rollers much faster and the grim just oozes out like the chocolate cream from a beard papa chocolate fondant...

user posted image
i would've thought of using more indecent images.. but they don't seem to be as dirty looking as the fondant... or i could use the other one... nAH... i'll get booted from LYN...

you squirted too much la... be generous but not over generous until it is dripping off the chain pin from the bottom...

after that, wipe off excess.. just the side plates only... dun wipe the rollers...
