QUOTE(vinnyming @ Dec 30 2019, 12:30 PM) It really depends, cause of the irregular hours I ride. bro, lekas can cycle during night or daytime? the highway operator allow cycling?Mostly Kajang, Semenyih, Broga, Mantin, Lekas. Lekas is the easiest, cause you can calculate the set distance and it's straight.  |

QUOTE(Lucas94 @ Jan 1 2020, 02:35 AM) Hey guys, super new to cycling. But thinking of taking it up for road cycling for distances of 30-80km+++ along scenic routes on the weekends (still researching where and distance is just a gauge for now). buy steel chromoly bike with shimano 105 groupset.. steel frame more to comfort, suit endurance and leisure cycling..Was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction on what road bike I could invest in? Ideally an "Endurance bike", that doesn't have me leaning forward too much like a "pure race bike" as I understand. Budget is about RM2.5-3.5k+/-. Thanks guys and happy new year  |

Hi guys,
Sensor on trainer better or separate sensor mounted on the bike better?? Say if one go with separate sensor, it may be use to connect with cycling computer as well right (broader usage)? |

Immediately saw my Strava..broke some records....but the strange thing...my average power from 160 watts ..today it was 224 watts average. Impressive Double checked both meters ( I have my bryton and Garmin watch). Both showed similar results...plus minus a few km less due to when the GPS signal was lost I am super impressed right now. Did not know wheelsets contribute to faster speed...but also higher wattage |
