just asking lah kekeke.. are you staying in KB or other area? Kelantan is nice place to ride..
*
KB.. Not so nice if you ride RB, fell one time while riding in kampung road.. Went too near to the side to avoid cars.. And during long cruising speed need to pay extra attention to holes unless you are the first rider but the wind here blush.gif because too near seaside I guess..

Me tak boleh tahan, lastly sell my bike.. Spiritual exhausted everytime reached home, felt like whole brain blackout. Envy those who ride on highway, Johorian/KLian. Now change to FB, definitely won't go 451 anytime soon with current road condition.

If u r lucky, shipping cost less than rm150 by air.

Here, the 4px forwarder agent clarify it for me, as long as your item < 30kg and, (width + height)*2 + length not more than 300cm, they are able to deliver it for you. The best part is, the only measure the WEIGHT! brows.gif

This is sea shipping or air shipping? U sure they only measure by weight? Last I know for big items they'll take volumetric weight. I'm also using 4px for my TB orders

Official taobao air freight.. They got sea freight? You using agent is it?
If use agent, they go for either volumetric or weight whichever costed more. brows.gif

thanks man, this is good news for me  rclxms.gif
Wheelset box should fit in nicely within 120cm each side hehe
*
120cm so big? Cannot ler bro.
1 wheel 20", 24" is roughly 62cm..
Assume box size W70cm x H70cm x L20cm. Ngam ngam hou!!! drool.gif
Assume weight 3kg

So transport fee 35 + 28 + 28 / 1.9 = RM 48 for two wheels
Buy at your own risk ya! Because calculation made according to what agent said.
You might need to re-confirm again with them. Too good to be true.
70x70x20 quite big you know. laugh.gif

from this description seems like none of the sides should be more than 120CM = 1.2M
and the sum of width + height + depth cannot be more than 3M.

ok risky, but I think 20" wheelset can fit ... tempting tempting lol

I too have a 52T front but I run 11-30T back. So far have not really needed to use 30T at all. Instead of changing down I usually stand up to pedal when there is an incline. I'm therefore curious how much you would use that gear. If not used often, you'll end up with a 6 speed bike.

Thanks for the tips. It was light breakfast indeed. Few pieces of slice bread with a glass of Milo at home, then drive almost 1 hour from Klang to reach org asli settlement, light stretching and then start pedal liao.

got ppl manage to do it on a stock foldie wor, so what is lacking now is just my stamina and strength. Must train. Yesterday went to try out the new setup. Only 6.5kms ride in half hour enuf to make my legs go jelly. Aiyohh...
*
What speed and which gear make your legs melted?
Your seat adjusted correctly dy?

Impossible ler... As I remember first session of my ride with RB, I rode 25-28kmph for 20++kms, no problem on legs except the buttock. You pedaling too hard ke? If seat-post too low also cause problem on knees and legs, they will stressed out. hmm.gif

Bro, I see your foldie there no drinking water, keep hydrated also important ler.

Don't la like that bro... Pedal smoothly sure no problem one ma.. I think left think right think up think down also can't brain 6.5kms on flat road will wear out the legs, unless keep on sprinting like nobody business.

Never mind... Next week my foldies reached, I see how my wife rides, I report back here.

side question, what do you guys use to lube your chain and cogs? Singer oil? wd40? old engine oil? or purposely buy gear oil?
*
I no lube.. I don't like KY.. I love original feel.. brows.gif
Sorry, jokes apart.

If you see around the web, some ask you to lube, some ask you don't. So see which one you prefers la.
I usually don't lube because in long run the chain will becomes messy, when taking off the wheel to change tube, tersentuh a bit, habis kotor your hands.
One more, dirts tend to stuck on oily surface, and I believe the dirts/sands will create more friction than a oil-free chain.
Two more, the chain cannot simply use fab, trojan, or sunlight to clean so oily is no no.
