Who is unker anyway? Which shop in KL?

bwahaha.. you guys aa..sometime i also confuse..a bunch of trollers or riders? eh Rm200 for the wire? I'm not sure how it will improve my sandy dusty cable but it sure gonna look nice on my bike. I'm a sucker for things that will improve the look of my cheap bikes.

OK will visit the velocipit in March (provided i skipped the Red lah, deep inside me I scared later sram introduce the 11 speed version days after i buy the old one)

miao..your racun for the sl4 I makan already..but this crotch cam thingy also in my cycling roadmap

today I rode 46km...feels like giving up when facing the headwind and sidewind..averaging 25kmh feels like half dead already..i wonder how the pros doing the tour of qatar..it's pretty much the same dreaded desert wind

haha. then what is the sound advice? no upgrade for me till the end of this year lah..just wait and see..perhaps upgrade the rm200 ilink cable and get a fitting.

anyway can a cramp be associated with a poor fitting? i tend to feel like cramping on the left thigh..could be resulted from the numbness on my left foot. right leg no problem at all.

I know my bike fitting is a bit off..but let's put it on hold for my new bike. In my route where I usually cycle, the Zipp 404 will be meaningless. In fact i'm pretty sure it will act more weirder than my FR0 when it face the desert gale!

I rode 50km today, nearly get smoked by my ride buddy (an uncle with his aluminium bike, who lost 17kgs since the last 6 months by riding his bike day in and day out). I rode with him once when he was 3 months into cycling and still overweight. Now, on average he cycled 50km each day, 300km per week, and 1200km per month.

I cycle on average 300km on the open road (because I have no car yet), and roughly 100km on my indoor trainer session monthly. I could say he's on par with me at the moment (although I noticed I talk more fluently at a 30kmh avg speed).

So I have a revelation. It's the mileage! It's not about the bike! And he's upgrading to an 18k bike soon. Unless I cycle more often, that 50 year-ish uncle will put my carbon bike, my FR0, my luxury Rapha's, my whatever to the wall of shame. There. Right in the middle of the desert. On the sand dune!

Perhaps a top end bike will ease my journey? YOLO YOLO!

So our next ride will be on the climbing route. I guess my 30k total elevation in my leg will be an advantage. I wonder if it will be similiar to Fraser climb or not.

For those with Strava, I just found out you could do a very nice stats for your forum signature using VeloViewer.

Honestly, kudos to him. I was really surprised by his improvements! It's time for me to hop on my trainer daily

We planned for the 14km stretch climbing, skipping the route all the way to the feet of the mountain (Some riders rode the longer route prior to the climb which take roughly 4 hrs). Is it really like Goh Tong to Genting Highland? In that case I can't underestimate the climb lah...

Another thing is, the uncle I think is the best salesman I ever encountered. He told me, life is short, so just get the best bike you could afford. It sparks something in me...hurmmmm

Anyone fancy a Broga loop this coming school holiday end of March?

Vin ann..whats the total distance of the broga loop? 130km? Come butthead and everyone else in this thread let's do the loop..im not a strong rider so will ride so-so only plus my bike is cheap one

Well the abundance of money will come in time. So let say the amount collected already enough so that's when the justification is needed to buy the dream bike or not

Hence the term YOLO.

But then i admit there are many things to weigh before landing on the decision..marriage is one thing! It costs a bomb nowadays. Haihs

Still havent slammed it yet lah. Will slam in KL not here. So i still has 10mm spacers worth of +10watts

Lol. How come impossibru wan? Total blockage ka? I never tried that loop lah leg itchy want to try..

Or is kkb-top of fraser is much more interesting? How come some riders i follow in strava ride from uptown to fraser. Like a boss!

So what are the two prominent groups in msia? P2k and bjcc is it? The last option would be the LYN2K. Lol.

Damn the tanah runtuh looks like no choice to pass.

Can i ride, HOA-genting sempah-bentong-gap? Is there a loop for that?

Bjcc bukit jelutong cycling club if im not mistaken dinraxx is in that group.

Oi the route u suggest too epic to fail lah! The impossibleisnull that one he is an uber epic rider.

I prefer something like hoa to further more than janda baik. But the requirement is this. It must be an old route, less cars, scenic ride. So from janda baik where can i go?

Me powdahful? Not! But i can ride extreme distances if i ride slowly maybe 12kmh avg speed and there's other buddy to ride together. with that speed can even reach quadruple century ride in one go. Well it's all in theory only. Lol

That one is Edwin's group right? Dato joo ngan used to invite me with his group ride cos i brought my friend to buy xds bike from his shop. He told me he still coaching at the cheras velodrome.. That one counted not?

I said no because he said he ride from the velodrome all the way to hulu langat. Tfbd

A theory don't need maths

Vented will prevent fogging in your lens which bugged me on my every ride break (I use non vented).

Eh if the vented one still fogged up then it's the same as the non vented one lah

What do u guys think about madone 5.2 w ultegra? At rm12k for a complete bike.

Bianchi distributorship already available in KL i heard? Anyone know the whereabouts of the shop?

Just wondering, how much is the new Dura Ace 9000 groupset price in Malaysia and which shop is selling it? I know pedalspot only carries Sram. The 11 spd looks inviting..

And how much is the Ultegra Di2 price?

I know Red is the lightest groupset but just wondering the prices in Msia.

It's the new 2013 version. Yes it has the Kam tail and the hidden rear brakes under the chainstay (which I read from reviews it is the worst place to put a brake as it will accumulate dirts easily).

Not that expensive when you could get a complete bike with just a tad expensive than the price of an sworks frame (non complete bike).

However the head tube seems a bit tall for my liking. It doesn't seems racy enough though. No price available on the 6 series but there's a new Trek boutique opening soon next month so I might give them a visit.
