QUOTE(Broadica @ Apr 5 2012, 12:15 PM) aiyo... your wallet how big? 1 tyre only also wan check price like that... boon foo will tiao you kau kau... My wallet very big, enough to collect alot of cards and receipts. just la buy from any shop.. not like gonna different allot for a piece of rubber The point is not about such minor price. But its about what you pay for. Why must i pay more when i have the choice to get something of equivalence at a cheaper price. If all also support such high price then how we as consumers benefit from it. Different rm10-20 is still money la. Though i wouldnt mind to pay extra if good service, but rarely see good service around unless you look like guai lou or uncle who parked their merc or bmw in front of hte bike shop. Added on April 5, 2012, 12:30 pm QUOTE(Broadica @ Apr 5 2012, 12:15 PM) offroad and onroad sure got issue la.. but if you get a all terrain tyres that last.. then it wont be good on road or off road.. just soso performance lo What to do, i like to do urban as well as offroad rides buy highroller lo.. can roll fast on road also This post has been edited by Proclaimer: Apr 5 2012, 12:30 PM |

QUOTE(Broadica @ Apr 5 2012, 12:42 PM) wokay... looks like u missed the point to where i quote.. Of course big wallet not king dude, big deep bank account is. how to get good service like that... big wallet not king bro. btw, MHR, nevegal, maxis advatage.... or those XC tires with normal compound... will last u on road... any other aggressive off-road tyres will be just bad on the road... you will get bodoh on slapping the tarmac rather than lansi doing corner baring anyway.. best keep 2 set of tires for specific use.. otherwise compromise is needed for ur intend Well it can be bodoh to others but i couldnt care less what they think. 2 sets of tires is the best way to go but that would incur extra costs. Im poorfag. Cannot buy rubber all the time. Rubber price increase everyday. I need to start planting some rubber tree. QUOTE(malleus @ Apr 5 2012, 02:30 PM) I traded in the 2.1 for 2.5, wanted to try out downhill |

QUOTE(kaizer @ Apr 5 2012, 02:51 PM) Maxxis HR and Minions is not true to size. they run a tad smaller. A 2.5Minion will be like Nevegal 2.3 lidat. Smaller than its stated size? I see, then i need to have a look at it first. Later too small. No experience on the HR, but Minion's a beast's claws. I'm running super tacky upfront though. IMHO, compromises on grip coz you wanna do both urban and MTB is not worth it. 2 sets of tires is minimum. 2 sets of wheels if you're serious. Like the chinese saying... Can afford to buy cow, kenot afford to buy cow string? I'm sure you don't wanna put a scratch/dent on your SC Nomad frame when the tires slips during your trail rides, rite? QUOTE(malleus @ Apr 5 2012, 03:00 PM) Personally I think that 2.1s will be the biggest that'll be comfortable for road use. 2.1 macam not enough grip? If you're wanting to use the same bike for everything like I do, you'll definitely need to have 2 sets of tires. Besides, using knobby tires for road will really wear them down quick too. I'll rather spend money on cheaper slick tires for road use than have to wear down my more expensive knobbies on the road. QUOTE(majorsinbad @ Apr 5 2012, 03:09 PM) Actually ...for most of what you want to know ...you can get from this book ...even clarification on Tyres ...may not be up to date ...but its not too out dated ... How much is this book? I got mine from Kino ...good read ... QUOTE(timothyy @ Apr 5 2012, 03:30 PM) This kinda thing ah... just go shop and buy. If want, Nevegal RM130 and Highrollers RM100. U think ur wallet got petpet smell ah? RM100 thing... u telanjang run around the shop also no ppl open for u. QUOTE(Broadica @ Apr 5 2012, 04:22 PM) thats just plain bodoh Guess i didnt explain properly. if you want to save... ever more reason to get 2 set of tyres.. they last longer and safer...save more money long term a set of off road tyres can last for at least a year or longer depend how often you ride... mine 2 years still gooding doing road + off road... u wear them prematurely and compromised on grips both on road and off road.. thats just plain stupid poor man pay twice... |

QUOTE(timothyy @ May 16 2012, 01:48 PM) Why do you need sound? Haiz. Sarcasm Mavic got no sound la. Got sound also very humble type. I am using DT... got a bit of sound. Mau bising one... go for Chris King or Hope or i9. Suma bising macam hantu. Based on physic theory... the louder the sound, the more resistant it got. The more resistant it got, the more energy you require to pedal. As simple as that. Wheelsets are very much depending on budget and availability. In Malaysia, wheelset choice is limited. For me, I still choose the color I like instead of which is better. He! He! He! Colour kasi letak LED bling bling. Fuh, TRON bike. |
