miaopurr/butthead,
Thank you for the input. I am just really noob in cycling. . Just got a bike yesterday and did 9k today morning as a start using RunKeeper apps.. 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. |

QUOTE(miaopurr @ Jun 4 2013, 12:07 PM) 1. make sure the brakes are aligned and center relative to the rims, or vice versa. u don't want the brake to rub against the rim when u ride. hey .. thanks mate for the tips .. 2. skewers are properly closed and secured 3. chain properly lubed 4. the tabs at the calipers are closed service ur hubs every 3000-5000km. tune ur shifting whenever necessary. send it for complete service once a year.   .. by the way, I have difficult in switching front gear (shifter) ... I am using shimano sora .. im not sure if it rosak or I don't know how to switch .. any tips? This post has been edited by Seng_Kiat: Jun 4 2013, 12:20 PM |
