MTB (mountain bike riders) anyone?

**joemarski** · May 23rd, 2015 01:17 PM

long rides:
water bottle
cycling gear ( shoes, shorts, jersey, arm sleeves, shades )
side bag ( w/ wallet, phone, chain lock. sometimes: pump, multi- tool )

weekdays early morning rides:
water bottle
casual shorts. tank top, shades
shoes: cycling or casual flats / sneakers ( depende sa pedal )
side bag ( w/ wallet, phone )

family bonding rides:
same as above but
tee tops and flat shoes

blinkers: lagi nang nakakabit sa bike ( rear side )
headlight: seldom used kaya inalis ko na

all rides includes helmets. :bike3:

galing talaga ng mga rides mo. :thumbup:

just me, mas gusto ko ang mga egg beaters ( Candys ) kesa SPDs.
easier getting in and out.

diko pa na try spd ..alin ba mas madaling gamitin?...parang mas ok ang flat pedals pag medyo technical yung trail..pag road or light trail lang siguro ang cleats...pero pag mga uphill na techical parang mas gusto ko mag flat...

eggbeates: 4- sided entry while SPDs : 2- sided lang.
getting out: both pedals, simply twist your foot outward from the bike. am not sure about eggbeaters,
but SPDs have multiple-release cleats so you can also twist your foot upward to get out.

nasanay ako sa single- release cleats. so, add the 4- sided entry, eggbeaters ang mas madaling gamitin.
platform clipless pedal naman ang CB Mallet 2, so, ride "unclipped" na lang muna habang hindi mo pa
kabisado ang mga technical / rugged trails. practice lang clipping in and out... masasanay rin 'yan. :bike:

Thank you ulit mga sir!

Update ko lang tungkol sa mtb ko, napa tune up na siya at cleaning mukhang ok na. And yup may leak yung fork pero gumagana pa naman, hindi pa naman siya yung stuck na talaga.

Pupunta ako ng eco park next week para ma test yung bike (Tagal na yung last time na pumunta ako dun). Sana di mahirap parking dun tuwing weekend.

baka naman nabigla / nasobrahan na sa practice using clipless pedals . . . lol. . . .
nauso nga 'yang 1 x 10 set up. okay naman . . . looks cool at saka di naman masyado nagagamit
the other 2 rings . . . middle ring rin lang ang madalas kong gamitin.
will shave a few grams pa 'coz less 2 rings, FD, and cables.

just me, okay nang gamitin 'yung middle ring ( i guess you have a 24/32/42T chainring ), no need to buy a ring
designed for 1 x 10 use / conversions. di naman halata 'yung space na iiwan ng large ring eh.
pero kung meron ka namang stock diyan, eh di ikabit mo na. cheers!!!

Tsaka nauuso na rin ngayon ang 42T/16T combo sa rear cogs.

Middle chainring nga is ok lang, mapa-road o trails. Pang rektahan na kasi ang 42T chainring. Yun granny naman, pang extreme situations nalang sa akyatan.

gud pm,

can I ask for advice on where can I bike a good quality bike carrier for the trunk of a vios?
any suggestion on the brand and estimated price will be greatly appreciated.
beginner nga lang pala ako kaya as long as it serves is purpose ok na sa akin. saka na lang siguro ako mag-invest sa mamahalin kapag mamahalin na rin bike ko.

thanks
