Wait until u see Lightweight with the white spokes..forgot la the model.

What do u guys think about Vision wheels? Around rm4500 only, the aero wheels

I was planning to get 404fc as the aero wheels for flat route and my FR0 for climbing but haveto change brakepads everytime and adjust the angle..maybe sell mu FR0 and get a do-it-all wheelset..the 303FC or 202FC?

that is the meilenstein obermeyer weiss edition...

Sure boh? If money no problem- Milenstein lightweight may just convert you.
All pro are on carbon right?

you have to get your facts straight...pro's have the ability to swap wheels every couple of months... you can't...and breaking a wheel for them is no harder than breaking a sweat...

you break a wheel... it feels like britney spears skewered your testicles with a thorny rose...

QUOTE(miaopurr @ Apr 23 2013, 05:42 PM)
if money no problem, i'd pay extra for shipping fee, customs tax, for a set of custom built HED C2 from wheelbuilder.com, if they have clincher version. if not, i might choose something else from them, or from other builders.

if money no problem... i would buy myself the entire Reynolds company and get Paul Lew to build me some fancy wheels...

this is the chap who build the german sadist gunther mai a set of "special" lew racing carbon boron vt-1 which is much lighter than the ones sold off the shelf...
http://www.rouesartisanales.com/article-17212505.html
http://velonews.competitor.com/2008/03/bik...road-bike_73034

the wheels were 850grams off the shelf and reached gunther mai @ 734grams... the crazy hitler worshiping mofo took it a further 30 grams lighter by making love to it day and night i meant grinding the axles and stuff that most of us including paul lew think is there for safety reasons...

i am going to buy over reynolds and be his master boss and make him build me wheels day and night until he cries mommy....

that is what i will do if money is no issue....

there is no such thing as incompatibility... you might just have to pay quite a bit more to get the whole shebang to work...

there is always options for under RM2.5k... you might want to take a peep at the nearest bike shop to you first...

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

the general guidelines will always be that you take a look at the giants (, meridas, jamis, khs, fuji first.

they will have some sora equipped bikes that should be within 2.5k... then you might need a bit more for some protective gear like helmet, accessories like lights and gloves... expect another RM200-RM300 from those stuff...

pin pointing models might be hard since we don't know a lot of things from you like location, how you allocate your budget and stuff... give the shops a stroll and narrow down your options first.

You had already convinced our Butthead Kor to go the same path or had successfully neutralise Vin-ann's urges to challenge us, if we do upgrades.
So... you know the answer.................it's Ziltch!
why me... i am a very grounded sensible dude...you can spend all your time preaching to me and i won't convert... money or not...

i am a mortal enemy to weight weenie bikes...

so, nada for me too...

if i have the money... i will buy mclaren, Lockheed and their subsidiary Skunk Works and NASA and make them build bicycle frames and parts for me... i want formula 1 and aerospace technology on my bike...

i am jus stating the fact...

why settle for wat miao calls mainstream items when you can have exclusivity???

i'll put worldwide copyright act on every part of the bike so no one can copy it or i will sue their asses till kingdom come...or if it is china, i'll jus buy a couple of nukes from russia and sent it hurtling down the great mainland...

show them to not mess with someone called butthead...

2 reasons why porsche don't work...

1) they are not in formula 1
1.1) they do not have access to special carbon technologies
2) they do not work with carbon a lot more than mclaren does
3) they do not have wind tunnel
4) they did not build a playstation 3 car like the mp4-12c
5) they are not a conglomerate of companies that can work towards making my exclusive bike (http://www.mclaren.com/group#/what-we-do)
5.5) group companies like "applied technologies" is what helped spez with the McVenge
6) they don't have ron dennis
7) they don't have the visionary gordon murray
8) they don't have a server farm as big as mclaren does
9) they don't have FEA solutions like mclaren does
10) they don't have simulators or the capability to build one like mclaren does
11) last but not least, they are germans and they are most likely communist nazi's

i think i have given enough reasons...

next in line if mclaren is not suitable will be Ferrari... and they have one more thing that mclaren does not have... passionsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

on a side note... GT3 is a car for wussies, 4WD???... any porsche buyers know that they have to buy the rear wheel driven wild and crazy widow maker called the GT2 RS... every second of driving it you live on the edge as it plots millions of way to interestingly kill you... so much possibilities can go through it's little mind if it has one that even the IBM Deep Blue cannot match... gary kasparov could not possibly mind f@k it...

GT3 is rear wheel drive, GT2 RS is a turbo-ed rear wheel drive.

And btw, that's why Porsches are for people who wants to drive tongue.gif McLaren and Ferrari? Boring
*
ok, i thought i saw GT3 RS...a man needs to drive a manly car... anything below 700 horse (except for cars as exquisite as a Ferrari) is better left at home or to be driven to the nearby grocery shops only, you don't want to get smoked by the japanese 500++ horse PS3's when you are driving it out... standing still, it already looks like it has a gazillion horses ready to prance out...

mclaren is the sensible gentleman that can occasionally be given some stig....

not when you get a P800 kit for it...

there is no such thing as driver involvement nowadays... we have become too numbskulled to be quick enough to respond and to correct under and oversteer situations...

it'll just be a case of Depress Accelerator-> Heavy Motion Blur-> Meet Wall-> Coffin
