Rust occurs because the water comes into contact with the metal.

Have to use inhibitor to prevent contact.. good paint can prevent the water frpm seeping into steel.

Or get an Al bike or a well protected steel bike.

I think I will eventually get a better foldie once I outgrow the current aleoca.

Jay Bee, have you got your cycling sunglasses?

Found a pretty interesting one with instantaneous electronic Tint-on-Demand with a price that seems rather cost effective.

US$250 + US$25 shipping for a pair which works out to be US$125, a 50% discount from its proposed retail price + US$12.5 shipping.

Left THREE slots only!

Select preferred frame and lens color in September.
Delivery in November

Adjustable to fit Asian faces.

If you can outgrow your current aleoca, you can fly on road bike. :s13:

I have cycling friends who cycle 50km wioth aleoca bikes from AMK==> punggol==> sembawang==> woodlands==> Kranji/Neo Tiew==> boon lay...

He claimed its way more shiong than cycling 150km on his tern verge x18 at 26kmh. :s13:

Biggest risk: Does NOT fit your face.

For those proposed cycling routes, do they include pcn or just roads? I do drive myself but majority of the time I travelled by expressways to get to the destination.

To travel by bike, I have no idea on how to get to the destination like from Jurong to amk. i prefer to set out from home rather than drive out, park the car, dismount the bike and cycle from there. To mount and dismount the bike from car damn troublesome. Is there any local app for cycling routes?:s11:
