Just browse tru the net for the knee/elbow guard. Pity those ppl who post those question on the bike forum and found themselv being flame by other user for being "wuss" or "scared to death".

Its a pity that I got into shit accident before the whole thing even started. Oh well, even if it doesnt happen now it may happend in the future and i seriously feel lucky to get out unhurt.

Btw, if downhill riding down, which brake should i use? front or rear brake?

eh can i sell my damaged tube? which shop?

Hmmm, the tubes for RM10-13? That is almost the same price but in AUD. But the tube brand there is Conti/Vittoria/ bontrager. Wondered what is the brand sold here? cap ayam?

I brought my MTV spare maxxis is RM13 at Tukang Basikal Fook Sang

My tube aint looking like some expensive tube either.. Kenda brand..

Today done my PD ride, fastest avg speed to date.. 27km/h easier road..

How often do you ride in PD? Every weekend? Interested ..

yes... cap ayam dan itik...

there is mainly 2 types of tubes.. butyl and latex

butyl also has normal and the lighter flyweights which are more expensive..

then comes latex tubes...latex are generally known for being a lightweight tube.. on top of it, you get a smoother ride as latex is more flexible than butyl... some claim lower rolling resistance, that i am not sure about.. problem with latex is that it is expensive and also not very durable as it is very thin... not condom thin... but still thinner than the usual butyl variants...

we plan to have it once a month.. it's a triathlon training

triathlon ar..... good luck

Butthead, thanks for your view abt those tubes.

Getting better now, my wound most are dried out. My tigh part still a pain when moving/walking around.

how many of you here always ride around Putrajaya area? are there many cyclists around? say on weekend morning..i plan to do my base mile training there since the road is quite flat I think..

added question: the free wheeling sound of my rear wheel was quite low previously until yesterday when I changed the rear tube myself then the free wheeling sound is a whole lot more buzzier than before. anything that i've done wrong in putting up my rear wheel? what's the cause? thx
