argument is invalid...

John McClane = mass destruction in an epic manner

Chuck Norris = hand to hand combat

John McClane won't even need to get close to chuck and he would be blown to smithereens.

not to mention... lucy mcclane... the mcclane with hair...gets b**** slapped around so much in DH4 and still manage to stump matthew farrell by asking him to dig deeper and find a bigger set of balls...



that is so epic...

not to mention that she is quite a hottie too...

look at her staring fear straight in the eye...(although that guy looks like a gay hacker with gun, but it's fear nevertheless)..for a girl... she has so much balls than all of ours here merged into one...

that is so un-comparable except for lara croft...

i would say ksyrium elite... but i trust the elite is also more expensive and i suspect some of the cheap ones outside that is being sold for RM1.8k are fake ones... (i was told that, never seen one before)

FR3 is around RM1.8k, maybe lower if you go to the right shops... Mavic would be above RM2k for sure... RM1.8k also i have seen before, but a bit suspicious as it is a couple hundred cheaper...and i do mean a couple hundred

Hey guys, i was thinking of reigniting my passion with cycling again. Used to compete alot during my secondary school days under novice and amateur races. Back then was the era of Miguel Indurain, Bjarne Riis, Jan Ullrich, Marco Pantani.. Now completely lost touch.

Whats a good bike to recommend for a budget of around 10k? I had dropped by FHL to look at some Pina's and was recommended FP Team with 105 groupset. What u guys think of this bike? Any other recommendations?

suggest you take a look at more shops and don't jump in so fast...

http://www.baikbike.com/bicycle-shops/

for RM10k... you won't get the best of carbon bikes but should still get a fairly decent one from reputable brands... a slight tad over RM10k might close deal on some ultegra equipped bikes if you don't take into account the gears (apparels, helmets, etc...) that goes along with the bike...

there will be a lot of choices within that price bracket... the only way it to look at it yourself and then narrow it down then we might be able to help on the pros and cons of your narrowed down selection...

for fun de=stresss.remnants of being a /K ?



oh well, dinosaur I am putting together is coming along and I was wondering if anyone has dealt with MTBonline.com guy is selling Speedplays at around 530......any ideas anyone ? thank you.

Probably need to go online to get the stem shim for the 1" steerer, since I cannot find one. But I did find a 1" diameter stem, that is 1" stem and bar

depends on what model speedplay and if it is new??? 539 for 2nd hand is kinda steep and a big worry if it was not properly taken care

1" stem is going to be hard to find....best bet is bbs...

its new, but more worried about the vendor la.

Hence the need for a shim sleeve. 1 1/8th " OD and 1" ID. With that I can use 1 1/8th stems la. Maybe I should try to make my own sleeve. I know a vendor but I buy spec stainless steel from. Not sure if they are willing to sell 1 feet of 1" OD tubes or not. I shall try on Mon/Tues then....

shims is a worry lar... the stem might not be able to clamp to it strongly enough...

or you can ask machine shops... sometimes they have small enough leftovers of 7075 tubes lying around brows.gif

you still need them to cut a slit in the tube so that the stem can clamp on the shim and the shim in turn clamp onto the steerer mar...

Giant brand is hopeless in Klang Valley. Unless you're in Penang / North...

Dont bother to spend precious time just look for Doraemons brand ya... unless there's a shop nearby ur place example: Samy bike shop at Batu Caves, Giant concept store @ Wangsa Walk....

now the main running event is over, i can resume my cycling activities lightly....
