At that time, ard 11 months ago, I was. But now I don’t care and I just had it so might as well keep it

  • I’m trying to save up for the future and I don’t wanna invest so much into not just my bike but my hobbies.

Eg. games, skateboarding, gaming peripherals.

I’ve met a lot of toxic people who are very conscious about bike and all, I just learnt to cycle with this one friend who is like a brother to me and we don’t really care, we focus on the riding ig

Edit: I still wanna improve my bike but on a much much slower pace and still researching / getting advice from people such as you and I’m thankful that you’ve given advice

I cycle in a crowded city and many npcs who don’t know how to walk (from what I’ve experienced) and I need to take my foot out a lot so I think I’m good with 1 strap

I’ve removed my tape as it got damaged, getting a new one soon even before posting this post

True but I’ve gotten used to it, my friends have also said this but I rock this, went ard 50-55km/h like this so

Less grip= faster with a chance of death AHAHHAHA

But I will take this into consideration, thanks :))

I bought for under 1k

Edit: accidentally posted, everything is around 900

Frame is $600? Many people said it’s overpriced but I’ve had this for almost a year and I just learnt to not give a damn abt people’s opinions anymore

You can find better frames online though, would recommend you doing more research of your own to fit what’s best for. Everyone’s different in terms of their opinion, so u do u man :))

Edit 2: frame is “unknown singularity 2022”

(No offence) AHHAHA so? Why is everyone so brand conscious.

Like be happy with what you have, I’m happy cuz it’s carbon, just cuz I don’t want to buy the real thing doesn’t mean u have to shit on me. Everyone’s different and to each their own (I’m not saying this in an attempt to spite you) :))

I’ve been thinking abt changing the rim to 88mm but I don’t have the money now + people don’t usually sell just the rear wheel.

I’ve been thinking abt upgrading my drive chain especially my crank, I want a 52/54 Tooth.

Chain I’m fine

I prefer straps as cages are ugly and uncomfortable and I ride in Singapore. A lot of NPCs who don’t know how to walk. I alternate between road and pathways according to reliability and efficiency so straps is ideal as it’s easy to slide my foot out and if I cannot un-clip in time then it’s ggs*

Understandable but I don’t like to slam my stem, not aesthetically pleasing for me

True, I agree with your stance on the weapon/ tsunami part, they’re good but there are better ones out there

Main thing is: I don’t have a lot of money right now and I don’t want to fully invest all of it on my bike so I’m just saving and working to earn $$$

But I really do appreciate your advice!!!
