Giant Defy 2012 @ RM3800



And about the odd size stem (1-1/4") for TCR SL2 with OverDrive 2 tech, the boss said no stock to replace...for now...

skinny...the pump or you...

your pump is rated to max out at 120 or 160psi or 220psi?

pump gets considerably harder to pump once you reach around 70% of it's maximum pressure...maybe you are too skinny...

prologo is comparable to fizik... they have saddle with different density padding... softer in middle for your soft tissues and then harder at the end for better support ...

maybe they ran out of stock... did they tell you the price?

try ksh ss2 and see...call them and ask 03-7877 0450 before you go there... got white and black i think...

105 range is around 3.8 to 4.3k range of price... except for brands like specialized or bmc

the seatstays look sorta thin... or maybe the picture...lookwise i kinda like the white colored scott frame better... the defy looks a bit too bland... but different spec'ed...

if you take a look at the prologo features... they do offer some that are quite sensible to bike users...

http://www.prologotouch.com/technology.php

like slide control, which is very useful for people doing triathlons and especially time trials as they constantly lay in an aero pose and they keep shuffling around the saddle as they slide further back with each pedal strokes... slide control lets them grip the saddle easily...

side protection i believe is not on all the range of saddles... but it provides some parts of the saddle where cyclist usually let the saddle come in contact with a wall when resting their bikes at stops so it doesn't damage your saddle or dirty the white leather... kinda thoughtful...

price wise.. i don't think they are that cheap anyways...

i had a Nago Evo TS before, the most cheapest entry level... that time the prologo dealers wasn't all over the place yet... overall, i would say not a disappointing saddle for the price is paid for... under RM200 i recall...

Where there's so many sexy white bikes = ="
Or there's someone who share the same white fetishism over here

any idea where i can get KHS bikes in KL?

KHS i think is a shop in shah alam called Sen Aik.. mountain bike?

www.senaik.com

unfortunately... we can't afford black on black livery... white is 2nd best choice...

Added on February 10, 2012, 1:20 amCAS must be on a roll after giving alberto the kick in the ass... to the point that they decide to ban ullrich even after he has retired from the sport of professional cycling for some offenses more than 5 years back... wat a waste of time...

CAS Bans Retired Ullrich for Blood Doping

now left Mr. Livestrong which WADA is pursuing to get evidence from the novitzky investigations after the feds decides to shut the case down... thumbs up for feds, middle finger for wada...

WADA urges Feds to hand over armstrong info

they must be thirsty for media coverage.. they should give it up and concentrate on active athletes or the sport has become so clean they have to find some shit to justify their existence...

they should be called WADA"fag" World Anti Doping Agency For Aging Geezers... they are nothing but a bunch of old farts sitting there trying to think up ways to annoy everyone... and cause everytime they turn up... athletes go wadafag, again?

I saw one giant defy with just Sora groupset (triple) at the front of a certain GYK Giant Shop here in Ipoh.

Guess what the price tag attached to the bike...

3599 with the wording 'sale' written as well...

I was like dropping my eyeballs...

Add RM 400 and get Polygon Helios 500.With 105 some more.That's worth a buy.

Don think so... polygon if the price is 4000+ then might as well look for other brand
btw polygon 500 issit full 105 spec?

yes Full 105 bro.Why get Defy since it's alloy.If you can fork out extra 1k cask, get the TCR Composite instead.

Do you mean that tcr composite is 5k plus minus?

Hey I saw one tct composite 2 in Ipoh cost around 6.1k. What's the deal?
Where u see that bike?
You know about giant bike here in Ipoh, most of the comment is no stock. Dunno what the situation over there? I presume is klang valley.

Yes.Around the price you stated.But it's worth the buy since it's carbon frame.Nowadays when you buy alloy, selling it would be a pain in the butt since people now considering to get carbon straight ahead.But if you don't really care about upgrading, then it's your choice.Simply Giant has that latest in the house aerodynamic seatpost and good frame geometry.

Hehe u sound like a Giant sales...

Nah..I'm just recommending.If I were to recommend you, get Scott F01L 20 instead.Way better.But fork out 10k.With Ultegra too ;P

Now u become Scott sales...

I'm just saying.But seriously.If you"Don't mind about spending your money to start on pro" get that.Or either this. This is the one I'm selling right now.

That is super expensive bike!
