[Sadisticnoob]

If he rides at that speed he will be national time trial champion

He looks dope.

I am not surprised there are incredibly amazing talents locally. Its just that there is no prospect being a local athlete.

Its recorded in strava in the table. Maybe thats a bug.

My siao on cycling friends get about 18 plus minutes per loop. So its still possible.

That makes the 2 of us. Paging erwinrommel.

Ya, i also keen to see ervinrommel recommendation on taobao wheelset..

I got 451 wheels, so its not applicable to your needs.

No need go taobao if you worry about the shipping fees. can buy from wheelonfire.

Can try Litepro Ultralite. My cycling friend is using it and he improves very fast.

The seatpost on mine is easy to adjust so I'm keeping it one bolt design

Quite good service by wheelsonfire delivered to location of choice personally and given free adaptors to my wheels. He also knew my rear wheel is 135mm spacing dropout and provided the appropriate spacers

Go CRC and check whether there's any promo for Ultegra or 105 groupset. Much cheaper to get there.

I prefer metal over carbon anytime.

I am currently using KCNC scandium seatpost. Costs about $160+...

Hi guys, been reading this thread for quite a while...
I'm contemplating to get a foldie, only foldies due to space constraint...

My past bikes are of urata or lower quality and a current cheap foldie w disc brake from qoo10... I have experienced 2 of my cheap mtb stolen from my voideck...

Just wanna ask erwin and VD, if the 2.8k for brompton is justified? Given the quality and the convenience?

As of now I have no intention to commute with it. I want a foldie for weekly rides exploring, ride to meet up w friends and to be able to run errands w it, like going around neighbourhood, grocery shopping.

Just seeking opinions first

If you have the cash, why not?

My sis has the brompton and i have the dahon. My dahon is more well used than the brompton.
