QUOTE(Andy Lo @ Aug 28 2007, 12:12 AM) Fixed the metal jockeys on my rd already... Not bad...shifting feels more solid and 'locked' now... I think it's smoother than the original Shimano jockeys.... But after fixing the allignment went off a bit, so had to reallign. Thanks AK! woah those jockeys are sooo cool how much u bought em'?

Yea.... haha..but if you wear proper protection, I think as long as if you're relaxed and try to curdle up all should be ok... I've had enough crashes previously especially those days with slicks...
Once there was a S-turn on a downhill road(tarmac). Was raining very heavily. During the turn there was a metal drain cover, no way to avoid at that speed and at that situation, so I skidded and crashed, swapped lanes and back. After when everything stopped I can still remember me lying on the road, and a motorcycle passed me looking at me blankly. Can still remember that the road wasvery warm and very nice to lie down on at that time. But of coz I quickly got up and get to my bike. Later if got a truck come down kalau sure I become flat.

Whoa, now that's such a general question! But here's a few pointers to head you in the right direction. 1. Quality of bike depends on your budget 2. Around 4 to 5 distinct pricing levels for major bike parts which offers distinct differences 3. It's a mix and match game 4. Go around asking for price quotes. 5. Don't get swayed into their sweet talk. Do your research after quotation There you go! |
