Hi All, i am new here. Just started cycling few weeks ago. I am currently using Crossmac Cobra and have done very short ride around my housing area. Intend to make some upgrades like crankset, pedals and tyre. Appreciate if bros can give some pointers. Thanks in advance wink.gif

from what i can see, this is ur bike
https://bicyclebuysell.com/images/upload/20...91769643-45.jpg 

its already equip with hollowtech crankset, 9s sora. as for now 1st thing if i were u is to change 
1. paddle - mks qr paddle or any good reliable paddle. stock paddle are plastic folding paddle, not durable
2. saddle - depends on ur butt size, this one is subjective. expensive is not always good.
3. bike meter - anybrand, as long u can keep track ur workout

start cycle for 2 or 3 month.. try to target distance and time. after that, come and ask here what u wanna upgrade and feel about ur bike. later u will know what to upgrade cool2.gif

Gd morning bros. I did a test between my wife’s Dahon Visc P20 and my Crossmac Cobra Z9 on a flat road. Noticed that it takes less effort for my wife’s bike to achieve the same speed.
Wonder if this got to do with the wheelset and crankset?

Will def take a nicer pic next week.
Just went for a short ride from Rimbayu to Jenjarom on Sun morning. Enjoyed the ride and noticed the pedal grips well. Was doing 20-25kmh on flat roads. Wanted to go faster but couldnt pedal too long with 53/11 (presume is the stuffiest). do you think i should reduce to 52/36T? hehe

actually, the spine concept from fizik doesnt meet 100% requirement for any of us. some may need to experiment, try & error.

as for me, not all arione i can used.
the arione cx does gave me a pain after 100km, but arione r5 or r7 gave me comfort event though after 160km. the other arione model i never tried, becoz it was too expensive.

and sometimes, choosing the right and good bib/cycling pants do impact ur comfort. last time i used monton, when i used normal sized more pain for me. but if i down 1sized, it does comfort all day long ride.

IMHO,the best cheapest thing is to get good cycling pants. after that, u can invest on saddle. my friend using stock dahon saddle and can go audax 400km without any pain.

nowdays, all price are going high!
low stock supply, but demand are very high. i do remember last time trinx ka2016 or 2016d is priced around rm600-800 but now used bike is rm800. even java TT is around rm600 and now is rm1.1k

following the market trend right now as for ur daring question, i cant suggest anything within ur price. but i could recomended few brand that i know

Price level < 500 RM
try to find oscar vogue, so far the clamp are better than most brand within this budget

Price level 500 - 1000 RM
crossmax also good, only the package groupset are so so. while raleight calypso (bodwalk look alike) last time is around RM800, but now i heard is rm1.1k. brand like trinx,xds, java if u can find within these range i could be nice
if i were u and dont mind used bike,
i'll wait till oct until dec. saw many buying bike as a trend ad monotorium from the banks leaves some people got a lot of money. i dont think cycling lifestyle will be forever for trending follower.

lets hope we can get cheap quality bike for a jackpot price!

well said. waiting for that too lol.
