you're really depression for not able to cycle huh....

this is where the tension comes into play for the speedplay... i think if you put in too much float and you ride wildly.. your foot might come loose quite easily because shimano ones can keep on increasing the tension...

speedplay has not allowed online retailers to sell it out of their countries... so, online shops like competitivecyclists won't sell it to you once they see you are shipping it out of US.. i don't know about others... the only ones who ship for sure are the ebay ones...

or you can go to Singapore to purchase like i did mine... the shop is called Bikehaus and they are quite famous among triathletes..

if after running 50km, are legs still strong to pedal?

There's a deal online currently for 2 x conti gp 4000s + 5 tubes for roughly RM 250 - 260. The cheapest i found here in LBS is about RM 300 for tyres only. Question is would you buy tyres online or rather get it from LBS despite it being more expensive for warranty issues/returns etc ?? Would using 25mm tyres make loads of difference ? Some say it comfier coz can lower tyre pressure and has more/better contact patch/rolling resistance ??

Also for brake pads I was looking at some swisstop. Apparently they're very rim/alu friendly and not so abrasive plus has very good stopping distance in both wet and dry. Was looking at the green pads. Any other suggestions or should I just stick to the standard shimano pads ?

Also I assume my 4za brakeset takes standard shimano pads ? I noticed that on my current brake pads the front is one piece. The metal plate + brake pad are together. The rear I think is two piece as there's a nut behind the metal piece which is to remove the pad itself ?

So if I were to buy pads I need to buy the whole block/pad for front and pad replacement for rear ?

Don't understand la.. just had to set aside 7 bucks a day for a month to buy all the stuff.

Le Butthead...im doomed...

isn't that your dream bike???

Would it be wrong if i get an sl4 frame but with ultegra groupset only? If i opt for that route i can have a better cockpit and saddle.

Or one should go with the best groupset but the bars, stems and what not are all mediocre?
