Better get one can sync to Strava or some cycling app.
Can keep track your rides, hours, km, routes... Etc etc
Useful for your personal records really.
You get to know how many hours you cycle, daily, weekly, monthly & even yearly.

Never own a Garmin or Wahoo.. Does it need to constantly connected to my phone?

no. u only need connect it when you do data sync, but other than that the bike comp runs independently

hi sifus here, should I be worried about the minor cracks on the tyre? it's still fairly new though

Should be alright if its not bulging, dont over inflate or leave tire deflated when storing your bike. If abit of tube is showing, insert a dollar bill or a wrapper in between tube and tire.

Hey.. Roadbike cyclist here that came from MTB biker?
Do you get puncture on your road bike very often? like almost 1 every 5 rides.

That's way too frequent for me but then again, gotta see what's the mileage for each ride. If you rode like 200KM each ride then 1 puncture for every 5 rides sound logical.

Not a pro cyclist, we only covers about 50km each ride..
Never had a puncture on mtb, just wonder why it is so frequent on roadbike

What tyre? Goodyear? Maybe the route you guys use has a lot of potholes or sharp debris?

I'm a mountain biker too, i only puncture once from big nails on my road bike after 7,000km, the sealant cannot seal bigger holes. I'm not using tubeless tire but i insert Stan liquid sealant in my inner tube through presta valve core. With sealant liquid inside inner tube it can seal from small torn, glass and minor road debris puncture.

For tubeless can go shopee get the tubeless plug it. Like gor car tyre but smaller

Everytime my tubeless has hole cannot seal i will use this plug kit and problem solve. But its rare occasion when kena puncture. If kena take about 3 mins to seal with the bitumen strip and 3 mins to pump with co2

hi sifus sekalian...i am looking to buy a bicycle, purpose is for recreational cycling and exercising around my housing area. i saw this Riverside hybrid bicycle by Decathlon..just wondering does anyone know if its a good and reliable bicycle for the aforementioned purpose...I am looking at Riverside 900...

Is this Goodyear Eagle F1?

Goodyear Eagle Sport, does this happens to your Eagle F1 ?

Anyone checked out this comparison between ceramic vs steel bearing for bottom bracket?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7iZVfSDbiA...channel=Hambini

Seems like steel bearing is much better to be used as ceramic will start to wear and its performance start to degrade

can pm me if interested in NTN LLB series, not many selling in Malaysia... I've imported them from Japan

Happens on my Eagle F1 Supersport. I will monitor if it gets any worse later.

Eagle F1 and GP5000 is very soft compound.... it get peel off/crack easily..... but very good grip> just wear off very quickly.

Comparing to Pirrelli... relatively harder - definitely the grip and handling is less ideal.

you may want to read this before jumping the gun on what hambini says

This guy mostly ranting personal opinion..

His request for ceramic speed to do testing also "under review"



Im not gonna say who is right/who is wrong though...


Btw thanks for sharing this article, ZFC says they want to stock up the NTN Bearings but they are having trouble sourcing up these bearings - maybe i should contact them to supply the bearings for them
