surprisingly sanayan lang pala. i can now overtake with ease, even switching lanes with bumper to bumper traffic is no sweat.

Smooth naman ang pag shift?

so, i checked on the recommended psi found on the inside of the driver side door... 29 psi lang pala s'ya. ang baba pala. all this time, i've been pumping it to 30 psi, smooth naman ride ko.

Thanks for the tip.
I normally change gear at 2~2.5k RPM to optimize the fuel consumption. But you make a good point. Will definitely try what you have suggested. Cheers!!!!
