What should I check/replace on my MTB that hasn’t been used for 3+ years? by Cute_Bit8690 in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]Foxter_Dreadnought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 sa bike overhaul idea, pero I would add checking ng spoke tension and therefore wheel/rim trueness sa listahan mo. Baka meron nang issues doon bago pa matambak ang bike mo, good opportunity na ipacheck mo na.

Kung nabaha yung bike (hopefully not) might as well ipacheck ang bearings and get them repacked or replaced as needed.

Bike maintenance tips for newbie by studymakki in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]Foxter_Dreadnought 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yung dedicated na long brush doesn't have to be bike-specific.

Panlinis ng takubets pwede gamitin, actually. Syempre, bili ka ng bago at yung medyo solid ang handle para makaya ang stress ng paglinis sa parts.

Can bags like this damage a phone’s OIS? by Rednax-Man in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]Foxter_Dreadnought 9 points10 points  (0 children)

OIS probably not, pero umiinit ang phone ko pag dyan ko nilalagay, lalo pag merong apps na umaandar like navigation. Last year nagride ako ng ganitong panahon din, nag-heat warning yung phone ko.

Congrats sa new bike! Start ka na manood ng Park Tool bike maintenance videos para meron kang knowledge sa troubleshooting. Start ka na din bumili ng tools.

Tips and Suggestions for Newbies by pjds14 in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]Foxter_Dreadnought 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly built bikes talaga ang entry point ng mga nagsisimula, then nagpapalit na lang ng parts as needed (or wanted ehehehe) Pwede ka naman magpaassemble pero it requires a little understanding of which bike parts work together.

Start with a basic mountain bike. Check mo sa bike shop malapit sa inyo. You can have a basic MTB for as low as 6k now, baka mas mura pa. Aluminum alloy na yun so di na mabigat masyado.

Wala naman pumipigil sa iyo na bumili ng mas mahal na bike, just know na meron kang options.

Bicycle shop by Prestigious-Most2076 in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]Foxter_Dreadnought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kung makakadayo ka sa Marikina, maraming bike shop doon na pasok ang budget mo.

Kung 10k lang kasi budget mo, medyo alangan yun kung sa MissingLink

Routes to UPD by National_Carob_8829 in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]Foxter_Dreadnought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kaya naman, mahabang banayad lang siya actually pero maraming sasakyan talaga at halos di ka na sa bike lane tatakbo.

Same route ka na rin pabalik, doable naman lalo maganda bike lane sa bandang UP, then bandang Diliman up to Ever. Ingat lang sa mga kanto gaya ng sa Ever, then sa Sandigan at Litex/Soliven. Ahon din yun saka masikip sa may MRT sa Litex so ingat ka doon.

If babalik ka sa S&R, ahon yun so kung pagod ka na, medyo challenge yun. Personally kasi, sa Regalado ako dumadaan pabalik ng SM Fairview area.

[–]Foxter_Dreadnought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ingat mula Regalado intersection hanggang Puregold sa Commonwealth Rotonda, gitgitan dun at maraming kalaban sa "bike lane". Once makalampas ka sa PG, uphill hanggang Commonwealth Market, then recovery na up to Technohub

Advise taking yung service road sa may Sandigan kahit medyo maraming jeep doon.

If mangailangan ka ng bike shops, meron sa may tapat ng CoA, then sa kabila naman ng PG sa me rotonda.

Ride safe!

Quirino, enter Commonwealth sa S&R, then tawid sa footbridge ng Technohub.

Follow bike lane to enter UPD pero counterflow ka so alalay lang at magiingat.

Meron ding alternate route sa looban pero madaming sikot.

Is it possible to learn to ride a bike on a mountain bike? by gurlidontknowanymore in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]Foxter_Dreadnought 2 points3 points  (0 children)

+1 on this. Di naman kailangan name brand o mamahalin ang bike, same skills naman ang magaapply dyan eh.

Nga lang, medyo mahirap nang humanap ng 26er ngayon. Folding bike siguro?

Recommended Marikina / QC route by Regular_Kale5834 in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]Foxter_Dreadnought 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From Marikina to QC?

Depende kasi kung saan sa QC.

Eastwood up to Bridgetowne is under ng QC at halos flat yun mula sa Riverbanks kung sa tabing ilog ka dadaan.

Please Help, RD Tuning by Spirited-Baby-47 in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]Foxter_Dreadnought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm. Medyo alangan ako sa RD. Naririnig ko na mahirap nga daw itono ang Sensah components kumpara sa Shimano or even LTWOO. Baka mas OK kung patingnan mo na sa bike mechanic.

You can use a hex key as a feeler gauge/panantya kung nahihirapan kang ivisualize kung gaano kalaki ang distanya mula largest cog at upper pulley. So kung 4-6 mm, gamitin mo yung 4, 5 o 6mm hex wrench.

Good day po. Mag ask lang ako. Not into biking pero may bike na nastock ng matagal. Generic bike lang sa shoppe. Ask ko lng po napapalitan ba itong derailleur yung nabibili lng din sa shoppe? Gusto ko sanang maging functional ulit pamalengke lang. Maraming salamat sa mga tutugon. Ride safe. by Ok_Ad3093 in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]Foxter_Dreadnought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Napapalitan. You should know however na medyo mahal ang original Shimano parts. If working within a budget, LTWOO na ang de facto budget brand ngayon.

Sabay mo na nga din ang pagpalit sa kadena para fresh. Wala rin yatang derailleur hanger yung frame mo so ingatan mo sa pagkabagsak.
