Mountain Biking...freespirited, and not-so-complicated fun

[ian_rex]

i couldn't say if it was a bad experience with kings bike shop. at one time, i was going to buy a shimano IG51 chain, so i ordered one and asked for a price- i'm surprised because it comes cheaper than i expected. it turned out, it was a rip-off- buti na lang di ko pa binayaran. nakaka-irita lang yung tindera galit pa. as if wala akong alam sa bike components. pinipilit na orig yung item pero hindi naman. sa loob-loob ko, meron kaya akong IG51 kaya alam ko kung ano ang itsura.

tip: when buying a shimano chain, see for the engraved shimano on the links. yun ang orig. the font on the link for IG51 is not italic.

yung binibigay sa akin sa kings, wala ang engraved na shimano sa links. iba pa ang font nung nasa link kaya talagang di ko binili.

pero i have nothing against Kings ha. just that yung tindera, masyadong atat maka-benta to the point na nung binabalik ko na yung item, sumimangot at dinabugan pa ako. og*g. pero sa ibang components, dun pa rin ako bibili.

hmmm. napaisip ako. parang type ko magkaroon ng AM setup. nagandahan kasi ako dun sa Jamis na nakita ko e. Dakar model. or yung GT i-Drive. di lang natuloy yung plano ko kasi FR ang nasa-isip ko nuon e.

AFAIK wala na daw nakalagay na Shimano sa chain ng mga bagong IG51.
