QUOTE(mrjgx @ Dec 4 2012, 02:29 PM) haha. yea, not a chance I'm going to use tubular in that case. too much of a hassle, and it's best suited for racers with their readily available mechanics to do anything for them. 52k for wiggin's stinking jersey? eeuuuwwwJust wondering if any of you riders here are using tubs, well I guess all of us are using clinchers. but waiting for 7 years? like a wine? that was freaking crazzzy..1.2k per pair? that's outrageous. Not for a rich man who can buy anything they want though. Wiggins was here in Dubai couple of days ago and in the auction for his TDF yellow jersey, it was sold for 55,000 dirhams...woot. almost rm52k and that's RICH. OK back to trolling session guys. lol I took this picture during my last 85km TT, guess what's the total price of this bike: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8484/8242903709_24026b0873.jpg that ridley, 35-40k? Added on December 4, 2012, 2:45 pm QUOTE(butthead @ Dec 4 2012, 02:38 PM) RM52k for a smelly jersey... not a chance in hell...i might give 52k if it was Scarlett Johansson's worn panties... i concur!Added on December 4, 2012, 2:48 pm QUOTE(butthead @ Dec 4 2012, 02:38 PM)   This post has been edited by miaopurr: Dec 4 2012, 02:48 PM |

QUOTE(vin_ann @ Dec 5 2012, 03:42 PM) problem is i dont even know how to feel stiff how good my Giant Alloy bike is. chill. if u have the right frame size, just use it until u have enough money to buy what u really want. i was on my previous frame for 7 years before i got my SL3. unless ur giant's the wrong size. what's the rush?what's more a carbon bike. Ok. self-awareness, gotta ride more before really upgrade. Guess, im still wearing "newbie' tag in cycling... 10,000KM mark is my next point to review my next upgrade. Justify or not? Currently 1 year 5 days into ownership of my Giant TRC SL3... clocked more than 2,000KM. on other hand, i think it's good opportunity to ride other brand bikes. "widen" your riding experience with different frame, brand and bike setup. i think i were noob rejected the offer to ride BMC... argh... think back, opportunity flash in front me and now no more... gotta ride more n try my chance! |

QUOTE(butthead @ Dec 5 2012, 04:43 PM) 7 years... never had a bike that lasted 7 years... my Iron Horse FS-1 was the longest... 5 years before the chain stay broke.. last bike was sendili tangan gatal la, i admit... was aiming for C50, then SL3 came into the picture. hahaAdded on December 5, 2012, 4:49 pm QUOTE(mrjgx @ Dec 5 2012, 04:38 PM) 7 years before upgrading to a new bike is amazing. Kudos bro! 7 years bcoz not enough money to get a C50This post has been edited by miaopurr: Dec 5 2012, 04:49 PM |
