hi guys. I just received my brake cables from crc. tried to replace it, however, realised that it's very difficult to cut the brake cables.

Is there an easier way to cut the brake cables or must I use the dedicated brake cable cutter by park tool?

of course easy way is cable cutter. if not just keep cutting until the hole is straight. pump your muscles la, one time press it down if not sure not straight

Mountain bike question.

But rear cogs is nine speed. If I upgrade front derailer, can I upgrade to 10 speed front derailer or best performance is old 9 speed derailer?

you would need a cable cutter (can google) dont need to be park tools.

dont use normal cutter and cut because it wount be clean

Bump for advice on suspension that doesn't seem to be working (doesn't move).

if its low end stuff, dont think you can dismantle the fork and repair, uou might need to get a new fork, just match the steerer tube can liao

 

[binary_0011]

yea the battery was dying.

the speed/cad sensor also died

buy edge 1000.

 

[binary_0011]

Wah sian, will cost at least $100 to replace the fork right? I am quite fond of the bike but don't know if it is worth it or not.

cycling is an expensive hobby.

 

[NoLogicLah]

well, $100 still ok lah. when reach high end, even chain can cost around $50 to replace.

yesterday curious so ghost explore the PCN from Pasir Ris to Changi Beach - fairly comfy pace can reach in 30 mins! on an el cheapo mtb too ^^ IMHO they ought to have water cooler stations every 1.5-2 km?

Water cooler? Don't have. Toilet yes. Get from toilet loh. Last time NS, where you think jerry can water is from?

 

[Jack_Chen]
