my front tyre using thru axle, doubt anyone knows how to remove that, and use a huge lock to lock the rear tyre and the frame to a pole lol...
my school got 4 riders, one me, another kona scrap, another using his newly-bought BlkMrkt Riot and another using a UMF Freddy lol...
get a Riot

rm1550 from AC, distributor of Deity and BlkMrkt products lol...

and though its chromo, its farkin' light

I think if those fu*ked up thieves are so God-damned desperate to steal a bike, they'll bring power tools to cut through any chain/lock. However, if they use an electrical saw to cut through your chain/lock, there'll be noise disturbances and your whole school would know that something is happening (bike robbery).

After PMR? LOL.. PMR don't matter lah.. trust me.. I was laughing while doing the questions and I didn't even study (seriously!).. they were far easier than you think they are.. then again I'm sure you meant about the money.. but trust me man PMR not hard.. I always get C or D for Maths in normal exams then PMR can get A.. I got 5A3B by the way..

Anyway you've got the wrong Irfan.. the Irfan I knew once used a Lerun-comparable bicycle before getting a Gary Fisher recently (his first 'expensive' bike).. and Irfan was only introduced to MTB about November last year when I started shoving him into the singletrack trails nearby.. and yes he has a brother but his brother is only 4 years old and he is not using a Commencal >.< (too far out of their budget range!). The parents have money but is spent restocking their furniture/restaurant biggrin.gif  and the Gary Fisher costs RM1380 because it is a 2006 model.. EVERYTHING is Bontrager, even the wheels, seat, seatpost.. except for a Cane Creek headset, and your norm of a Shimano brakes/groupset

Wowwee.. what school you go to??

Actually, I'm not allowed to use my own money (CNY Red-packets/B'day money/Doing-well-academically present (money), those are meant to be used if, the family is in financial difficult times (recession) for my university when I grow older. icon_rolleyes.gif Right now, my parents pay for everything (I don't mean to be sombong/proud). No offense, but 5As + 3Bs = Doesn't really cut it for me/family cause all my cousins have 7As and I'm the youngest cousin in the family. doh.gif Sorry but after checking with my friend (Aidin), he said that the person who introduced him to cyling is (Imran) and not (Irfan), sorry for the misunderstanding. Btw, if your curious, I'm in Sri Cempaka (Damansara-campus).
