Compare to Finish Line lube which cost somewhere between RM35-RM45, why not try RM2.90 Singer oil lube instead? shocking.gif

Hi myak9,

I am heading back to Penang tomorrow afternoon. I am planning to ride around Penang as the last I did was during high school times. A lot has changed so yeah, gonna do lots of riding around town. Not sure if there are any other Penangites around but I was initially planning to do it solo.

Let me know if you wanna ride.

Cheers

You've got the admirable skills & you cycle.. All you need is guts and investors. Then you are in business.

All the bikestores mentioned: They have one thing in common: "image".

You may not need to know the inner workings of a bike, just pave it with money and the service mechanics will come.

FBT for example, knows how to manipulate the electronic, print and digital media, ever willing to come in front of the camera and sell... So much so, they kena whack by some ultra extremist blogger for showing lewd signs and had to apologize.. Read about it here..

GWC - Started as a shop selling junk bicycles. Realized there is a niche in modifying bikes and took a bold step to be the agent for Pacific Cycles after the previous distributor gave up...

Van's - A year old, supposed to be FBT franchisee, decided to go on their own, very aggressive and seems to be doing very well. Just be careful of their tech by the name of "Y.C", a prick who knows next to nothing..

Beginners market is easy to tap now that folding bikes are well-known and readily accepted.. But I think the interest will wane in a year or two when there are noting really exciting in the offing..

I'm only gonna be reaching Saturday dinner time, so I think the only time to ride will be Sunday, if that's cool with you. I know that Sundays are normally family day so do let me know if you wanna do a Sunday ride. I can't confirm the actual time yet, so do let me know your availability and we'll see how are we able to arrange for the ride.

Cheers buddy!

Should be alright for me. I'll have early dim sum with my dad then start riding around till maybe around lunch time or so. Who else is up for the ride? I dunno if there are any other Penang kias here who wanna ride along but I'm definitely up for it hehehehe.

Well my plan is to ride and not drive while i'm in penang, in another words, I will be full time on my bike once I parked my car at home, unless its necessary for me to drive.

Give me a shout on your timing, lets see if we are able to meet somewhere. I don't plan to ride up to Tg Bungah or Tg Tokong, mostly will be around town exploring Chew Jetty and go have roti bakar at campbell street ehehehe something like that... nod.gif

Hi Guys..

I have been thinking of giving this a try but I have no knowledge at all..

Was hoping you guys can provide some advice on how should I get started?
a) What bike should I get? Cost? Where can I get it?
b) What should I learn and take note?
c) Do you guys have sessions regularly?

Thanks in advance and cheers!! :-)
