I am using a floor pump without the pressure gauge all this while, would like to get an accurate reading, should i just get a cheap pressure reader around like 20 bucks or get a new pump with gauge instead ?

jeez, better get a new pump with gauge then, save the hassle. got a quote for Topeak Joe Blow Max HP from rodalink for RM113, is this model ok ? or are there cheaper alternative ?

where can i get the genuine innovations ?

i can't seems to get the petrol station pump to work. once got a puncture, had the prestra to scrader converter on the tube valve, but once plug into the hose, no air got into it, it kinda have loose connection, both side also not working.

Crashed on a car that is waiting to come out from a alley, didnt notice the car at first and its too late to fully stop in time and knocked the side of a car at around 30+km/h. Further inspection I notice a crack at the end of the top tube adjoining the headtube. After that I try sanding the paint and there is no crack present, also took out the fork to inspect for crack but there is none, so does the rest of the part of the frame. Just wondering is it still safe to ride ? It's a alu frame btw.


Aftermath:



After sanded the crack:

hmm, guess i will continue riding it on, thank goodness the wheel doesn't taco'ed. Just ponder will the frame had weaken and give way if i ride over pothole.

well, gonna continue to ride on ! The rear wheel is slightly out of true due to the impact, is it better to have the tires off for truing or tires on will do ?
