What's the best tyre available for climbing and descending..meaning more grips on the cornering..lightweight enough. And is there an ultralight tubes?

I know but cheaper by half.

i like vittoria corsa evo...or conti force and attack also not too bad i think.,

supersonik? it's BS... buy latex...

I can afford what. Just I use my money in a better way. If the shop stated "once tried must buy" and I didn't buy, then I'm are fault of course.
Don't tell me you never try something and choose not to buy? Or saw something, tried but didn't get it. But later u saw cheaper price and u didn't buy but still go back to the more expensive shop and buy there?

OK. I admit I'm cheapskate but guess this is typical Malaysian mentality. Even I have plenty cash to spend, cheaper by half and I don't opt it, I must be pretty idiot.

Problem is rodalink doesn't have r1 with size 46. I only tried with my LBS in penang which have the size but is belong to him. You can call Rodalink and check. Lol.

LBS aka rodalink selling 1k le

LBS aka Rodalink as they are the distributor.and I went.there  when I was in kl. they don't have my size. I was quoting the price . The fellow I tried in penang sell in bbs. Go check. Good_deal
Do u think I'm from penang and my LBS will be Rodalink?

Hurm veloflex seems nice. 320tpi same like corsa cx. But a bit expensive.

What is the super duper clincher tyre available? The best money can buy? Michelin?

some love for Shimano R320!

actually.. the question should not be about weight... it should be about decreased rolling resistance

for example..

vittoria latex road tube is about 75gr
http://www.vittoria.com/product/inner-tubes/

michellin aircomp latex is about 80gr
http://www.michelinbicycletire.com/micheli...rcomplatex.view

conti race 28 (the standard butyl one) is about 105gr (this is retailed at RM26)

conti race 28 light is about 65gr (haven't seen it, but should be latex pricing)

and the most extreme conti supersonic is 50gr (mind, you this is a RM70++ tube in KH) and it is known to just puncture very easily as it is ultrathin butyl

latex is better in rolling resistance and is less prone to pinch flats (not punctures but pinch flats)... and as rumor suggest, it is comfier even at higher pressures because the material expands more easily than the harder butyl tubes...

and to further prove it's the better choice... it is the tube that is sewn into most high end tubulars... you say, is weight or rolling resistance more important?

and fug man... 20 grams dun count lar... that fella not at that level man...

when one start, shaving 3 grams off a skewer, boring out the stem and sawing and filing seatpost only start telling me 20 grams is important to...

else, dun "ngiow" on small numbers... it makes jack shit difference when it punctures and worst.. the price of replacing the tubes... i jus buy maxxis tubes bro.. sorry...

Tyres also.....weight weenies here are getting serious

weight weenies trained enough already, now preparing weapons

who want cycle up Genting Highland?

mark your calaender!!! 2nd March 2014 !

remember to collect japanese cars only you know...
boss.. ada apa kaitan leh???

ride up genting highlands... anyday also can la... have to wait until 2014... my tongkat also jatuh adi loh...

that is most likely a tubular lar... dun waste your time on clincher already... it's no hope one... at least go tubeless...

with determination... nothing is impossible...

whichever way lar... you want to tape like stans or you buy tubeless ready wheels like the new shimano's or fulcrum two way fit or mavic UST sort of shit... whichever keeps your tires hooked onto the rim...

furthermore, which tubeless dun recommend you put sealant...  sealant is like using condoms during sexy time... even though it's not fertile period for your lady partner... it is still better to have insurance...

as far as i understand.. you have to use tubeless specific tires lar... cause the beads are designed to hold the tire under pressure without popping off the rim hooks...and this is very apparent because every tubeless users complain about how hard it is to get the tires onto a rim if they ever have to install a tubeless tire...

so hard the plastic tire lever pun pecah

now the tire levers also weight weenie lar... all damn think and skinny one... guarantee break... or the tire lever flex around until kenot go in...

no one wants to sell this anymore...

this sons of a b!tches are tougher than your mother in law...

use hand lah bro... no weight...
