Get those metal ones with pressure gauge. Way easier to pump on both presta and schraeder heads.

Not so keen on mouldable shoes as my wife will not allow me to use the oven for shoes. And will not re-mould it after that, so no point getting another cheap oven to do that.

Just changed my tires again, to maxxis detonator 27.5 x 1.5 at 480g. Maciam can fly.

There was miscommunication. The uncle installed back wheels with new tube, but front wheel with old tube which i used for 2.1 and 2.0 inch tires. So now there are some foldings of the tube for my front wheel. Will there be any safety issue?

The shop got topeak joe max and joe sports ii floor pump. Looks about same. Which one should i get?

get those pumps which has the head is screw in to the valve one instead of those that use a lever to lock one. lever type very hard to latch on sometimes.

The lever type I got more issue pulling out than plugging in. Sometimes I have to pull so hard with the loud wind busting sound , like very scary.

Sports pumps up to 160psi compared to 120psi and sport has a moveable small yellow indicator on the gauge.

That is what I can see from the pictures and specification page..

finally upgraded my rear d to ultegra 11sp. think nothing left to upgrade liao.

Sometimes I feel average speed is misleading. Because it takes into account the time taken to brake and stop.

Wonder if there is a term to measure. Rolling speed?
