Didn't you know???

It has always been like that since i first watched it in 1997.

Only half an hour of coverage late at night back then. What is worst of all, this is supposedly our pride and joy national tour.

Dafug???

from a price point of view, Fuji since it's so damn cheap if you don't mind their in house oval parts and a mixture of cranks and calipers

else, the EMC for paper spec because of the carbon chainstay and an in house carbon seatpost and pretty much a full 105 setup for that price point which is not going to happen much often...

but, again.. as said then and always.. you have to see which shop you prefer as buying a bike is not as simple as just buying the bike itself... if you run into problems after purchase and the service is sucky as hell... you might as well make do with another bike or you end up paying for service at another shop that you didn't buy from... that itself, you have to be a judge yourself when you speak to them...

not really, they just got acquired by Fuji and that makes some people think otherwise...

you don't need training as long as you are physically active...

just don't follow the pace of the fast riders and go according to what you can afford to churn out...

carbon mar... and clincher some more... i think it will do more than that lar... just might not last as long or it might be dangerous as the pads wear the rim down...

mr. jgx, your brother got a review

Merida Ride Carbon 95 review

the big boys only come out for the main events like the big classics and grand tours... small ones let the small fries makan first... haha

for rm8k... it will be guilty for being un-sexy...

paired spokes always look nice... especially the carbon monocoques like this corima winiums

i will be happy given the normal aluminum spoked ones

you don't need strong legs... what you need is a motorbike...

even a kapchai would be struggling up GHighlands

you have to also remember pros will ditch their wheels after a number of uses (which is unacceptable to you and me) while you have to continuously ride them for years to come...

it is not going to be as reliable as the old classics rim... but that is the way the ball is rolling nowadays... nothing can stop it especially when there is people who only prefers to use equipment the pros uses....

maybe it's a angle problem...

but then again, you can see he is running quite a long stem... looks like in excess of 120mm and pretty much like a 140mm...

many riders prefer to run long stems as that sort of allows them to put majority of their weight forward in order for them to center their weight on the pedal spindle in the downward stroke position...i've read about it before but too complicated i didn't bother to digest it...

it is less painful for them at your pace...at their limit, it is equally as hard as you are when you are at your limit...it is just that they have trained themselves to numb out this pain as much as possible...

i wish for one too... just too expensive to own one... i don't mind an older bontrager race xxx lite when they were still license by rolf though...

that is nice looking too and it has white spokes... fanciful....

the market should still have OD FD lar... you got go ask the shops??? if not, just find a clamp on to braze on converter and use a braze on FD lor...

else, in BBS got Ultegra or a Tiagra which is months ago already...

yes, for around RM60 if made by SRAM... i saw some other clamp to braze on adapters as well..

http://www.competitivecyclist.com/product-...-4849.24.1.html

takkan because my perodua salesman don't want to give me an RM500 discount i go and buy 2nd hand myvi right? where is the logic in that...

ultegra / 105 mix is very common... some ultegra bikes that is not expensive mixes 105 parts to lower the price point down...

well, it's my favourite saying... watever yanks your chain dude...

i couldn't bear to buy 2nd hand parts even if it was dirt cheap for reasons that i could not factor into like longevity of the used parts and condition of it....

sometimes, small little things like worn pulleys on an RD can cause premature chain wear and stuff and a derailleur could have been bent out of shape that you could not notice until you mount it on a bike...

else, if the pricing is really not too far off... i would rather save up a bit more for a new part...

you still have a 1" steerer tube??? can find the fork somemore?

well, i don't understand the mentality of the coverage as well... at least sometimes eurosport does a lengthy coverage of it although not live... but it offers alternative rather than the so awful RTM...

even that many years back... LTDF was only a 30mins coverage on mega TV under ESPN (for those who still remember it, pre-astro days)... and those 30 mins was definitely not enough and you crave for more of it... LTDL one the other hand was somewhat a pain to watch even though it was the same 30 mins...

well... even the china tours and other asia tours is threatening LTDL... and they don't have oil backings...while we have...

i wonder if he offended the main commentator and got sacked the next year?

they should just hire paul and phil...

it has been like that for more than a decade... i don't think your "komen-komen yang berbisa" can make any changes...

i think he is one person in malaysia who has yet to know the existence of google...

my best memory of LTDL was 1997 on the stage to Sunway Lagoon... that was one sweet day when i get to eat free ice cream, (accidentally) dined at the riders or media's table setted up by lagoon resort hotel at my hearts content (and no one stopped me)... it was a huge buffet of food

at the end of the day... i went by the pakcik to ask for a few more free water bottles... and as he wanted to close shop and cabut balik rumah... he just gave me a plastic of it half filled which was like 50 or 60 bottles...

i became my ride buddies water bottle supplier for the rest of the year and we were constantly flinging water bottles at cars or anything that offended us on the road...hahahah... young and brash mar....

the ones after that was not so fantastic... one year we watch the crit final stage at dataran merdeka and some policeman tried to saman us for standing on the flower patches (unfortunately, didn't bring IC)...

Weakling competition is it??? you all no fight me lar...

i was already on 11-29T cassette from Token with 6600GS RD way before Apex launched with Wifli. After that i gotten the Sram Apex 11-28T with short cage as shops didn't bring in Wifli stuff.

And i gotten my first 11-32T Wifli Apex cassette as soon as it landed in Malaysia... you all want to claim weakling number one??? you all better line up first

how insane???

enough for you to go
???

you had the nerve to ask didn't you???

didn't you learn that "what happens in Philippines stays in Philippines"...

right or not vin_ann???

i won't question where you have been much like how UCI did not question where Michael Rasmussen has been in 2007 until ASO came out with cane whipping...

i don't watch football (wats so nice about some dudes rubbing each other over a stupid ball??? just give everyone one laaaaarr), but...MILF, i like

haiyah... 105 cassette would be hard to come by in 11-28 lar... most 11-28 you see on bikes via oem is all tiagra punya although shimano lists an 11-28 option available...

i would suggest a SRAM PG1050 cassette as that would be easier to get your hands on and no one will know its a SRAM on a shimano bike...

20 something retired??? got so young or not... maybe can try Wong Ah Thiam... he works in rodalink hartamas now...

yeah, where... MILF event woh!!! huuuhhh...syiok...



MILF holiday...

a wet p-u-s-s-y is what i like...wet and slippery...mmm...hmmmmmm
