By the way, what should I check or maintain before/after ride? I have no idea ... Should I send to shop for check-up/service like once a month?

Thank you.

before each ride?

1) enough air in tire, you don't want to ride a deflating tire out
2) brakes are working, you want to be able to stop once you get rolling
3) visual inspection that nothing else is out of place
4) the rest won't kill you mid-ride

you can send it back to the shops if you feel that something is not quite right... not necessarily on a schedule... just clean your bike once in a while and invest in some lubes and to perform the regular maintenance like cleaning and lubing the chain yourself... the rest other than cleaning the bike can be handled by the shops...

Thanks for pushing it Miao... I mean the single washer clawed to the front stem right next to the calipers, fastened by a central bolt and Alan keyed recess nut...... now, does that sounds more confusing or what? sweat.gif

what does that have to do with vin_ann... although vin_ann is very extreme in challenging people... he is also a very fair gentleman... he won't take advantage when his nature calls upon his frenemies...

Just for entertainment, dicing the scene slow mo, to see what actually happens during the filming of the scene.
Notice: no clip less shoe even during racing, std pedals.
Extremely low sitting position.
Focus bike and kash helmet.
They couldn't make it more real with the lead actor/actress, but the bunch of Kelefe are real cyclist though.
