hahaha..thank u all for watching and waste your 10 mins times. I guess the chicks part lure you all into watching the vid

sharp eyes butthead! i did slow down to enjoy the wonders of the world and I have yet to record on my weekly group ride where I can draft behind a hot chix for 85km

anyway can you guys believe it..a guy with his roller blade overtook me at a speed of 40kmh..and left me in the dust! Luckily Im on a merida..if im on sworks...cialat wey

BTW, have any of you guys came across the 2012 Sram Red WifLi in KL? I doubt that Pedalspot has it in store. Last time I check they only have the normal Red. Wiggle has some WifLi but the RD is for Force and Rival. Would be weird if I downgraded the RD though.

my bird watching skills might be rusty... but i can catch a fellow bird watcher in the act, still....

maybe he is on s-works equivalent roller blades... or he had rocket boosters installed on his roller blades...

haven't seen Red WiFLi yet... no Red users can bare to install a pie plate on their wheel... in fact i haven't seen Force WiFLi as well... rival, i think maybe i've seen it before... just maybe...because it looks almost the same as apex from afar...

i believe they can order some Red WiFLi in if you have interest... might have to wait though...

or he had gokiso hubs in those roller blades, with ceramic bearings

gokiso hubs don't need ceramic bearings lar.. it has bearings made of magic dusts which explains why it is so smooth...

This were from my friend in FB....



Any comment? who uses those gears above?

can pair with gokiso hubs!

ya..i need wifli..or anything with 32T. always reserve that last gear for emergency. I'd like to sell my used once or twice ultegra cassette 23T if anyone interested.

anyway for a cycling socks, do you guyes wear the long one or the short one? short is for cyclocross if im not mistaken.

chain i am not a believer...

cables... absolutely... teflon coated cables is by far still the cable to beat for smooth shifting...unfortunately, not a lot of people put emphasis on it... if you can have it fully shielded, even better...

only problem with teflon coated cables is that the coating can come off and actually cause coarse shifting...

if money is no object.. my next cable will be powercordz mated to alligator i-links


mid length socks... just clear ankle by a bit enough....

still like my defeet... good for hot days yet dry quick enough if it ever gets soaked in rain... unfortunately, their product lineup is not available here..

yea2..mid length is good..too long and it'll look like im wearing a football socks. My cable is the stock jagwire. perhaps am in need of a cable upgrade? ever heard of nokon brand? is it that good with the price tag it bears?

long socks was made popular by none other than le dopestrong

and black shoes too. don't forget that

again, unker got some defeet socks

Who is unker anyway? Which shop in KL?

nokon's are flickin expensive... upwards of RM300 only for shift or brake cables...they are actually of the same concept as i-links but nokon is more famous in the pro ranks...

it is also a blardy biatch to setup as the nodes have to be linked up like women's jewelry...you will be swearing your way or most likely finding a spanner installed in your carbon top tube of your scultura evo if you measure your housing length wrongly a couple of times...

the good thing about either one is that it no longer needs to be following the natural flex of the conventional cable housing and you can twist the cable into any bends you like to shape it (or, i think i-link can't do this...never really tried yet)


Nokon


vs

i-Links


i-links is available here from velocipede for about RM200 upwards for a single set...which is around RM40 more than the SRAM professional cables... and the lining runs from the shifter exit onwards while the SRAM runs from the first frame grommet entries...

nokon is used by Team CSC more notable ones and i-Link personally by none other than alberto contador

not the branded ones made by defeet rite??? creative mill must have gotten them in...

hope they have the aireators

yeap, got the aireators. last time i went there anyway.

that ilinks look interesting. gonna google for more info

there is not much info to look for except discussions in forum about it....

ilinks and nokon's are basically the cables to go for if you are looking for fully shielded ones because you ride in the wets and stuff like that...

else, i believe the cable itself is not a whole lot better than say the normal jagwire road racers...

we are talking about a RM400++ kit here for complete brake and shifting cables anyways...

the i-link has 2 types though... mini and the normal i-links... 4mm and 5mm cables.

i-link... RM200? well that sounds like affordable for my bike stuff upgrade... lets do it~!!!

RM400?? still within budget for my bike stuff upgrade... LETS DO IT

you buy bar tape also F here F there.... RM200... i believe you when you put money on my table...

if it'll last 4 times longer than the standard cables, i think worth it. does it last 4 times longer le butthead?
