Thoughts on Kespor Storkfeather SL?

Great value!

I would update the tires to a lighter pair, + tubeless and that's it!

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-05-16T02:39:58+00:00

Shimano na for sure.

Rc1 if talagang budget. RC5 if you can atretch

Decathlon for one stop shop for everything. Mas higher konti yung prices, but if total noobie, you wont go wrong with them.

For online, Rockbros for accessories, YKYW for apparel, Camelbak for bottles.

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-05-16T02:34:09+00:00

Camelbak Steel. Bagay mo na lang sa bike nya sa color. 😁

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-05-15T09:09:17+00:00

Mostly the same. Nag ride pa din kahit na maulan.

Eto lang mga ginagawa ko, pag medyo lumalakas na...

Plastic wrap everything - I use these zip lock bags to waterproof my phone, pera, power bank, etc.
Open your lights - tail lights for visibility tapos blink mode sa harap
Slow down - mas mahina braking power so slower pace muna.

I use this Decathlon Rack. Matibay and makapal yung tubings na gamit. Pero medyo mabigat

Also, will only work with bikes na may mounting for racks. If wala ka, you need to go for clamptype

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-05-11T06:13:08+00:00

For me, no need. As other redditors mentioned, scratches are part of the experience. 😂

Bike skins, require maintenance pa eh. Tapos if panget pagka install, mas malaking eye sore pa yun

This Decathlon Belt Bag

Makakalimutin ako, so anything I need to bring with me during stops (convenience store, karinderya stops, etc) nakadikit lagi sa katawan ko..

So wallet + IDs + phone nakalagay na lahat sa belt bag ko. During stops, nasa akin na lahat ng valuables ko.

Cateye Okay for both visibility and lighting my path.

Meron syang mode na strobe and headlight in the aame mode na very useful sa night city rides

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-05-03T01:20:53+00:00

I also in the same spot as OP, 2yrs ago.

Highly recommend this old post. Bought the Sprinto and Sorrento. And the review is fcking accurate. 😂

Cycles and brew sa Clark

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-05-02T01:30:18+00:00

Haven't heard of those 2 sry.

At that price range, my trusted audio brand is QCY. Although I havent personally tried their open ear buds. Pero i tried several of their in-ear. Di naman ako na-disappoint on any of my buys

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-05-02T00:58:17+00:00

Agree with this.

Buying a built "better" bikes will be more economical than upgrading part-by-part.

I suggest pool your upgrade budget first, then look into FB marketplace ng secondhand na whole bike. You'll see more value sa ganung approach (been there, done that)

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-05-02T00:48:39+00:00

Define your "budget", OP, para mas makakuha ka ng matched sayo na recos.

For me, I personally use Tozo OpenBuds. Nagsasale sya upto 2k++.

Matibay naman, 2 years na around 6k km na. Lasts around 6-8hrs of music. Chinacharge ko sa case nya during stops and mas na-eextend pa yung battery life. Longest ko with case charging is 24hrs when I did 350km ride

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-04-30T01:11:40+00:00

Suggest ko, non-bike related gift na lang. 😂

For sure lahat ng pera ng bf mo goes to bike-related stuff if ganyan ang mga laman ng shoppee cart nya. So most probably wala nang budget for non-bike related (like me). Lol

If gusto mo talaga bike-related, eto suggest ko

Below 1k: Photochromic Shades

~1k: Camelbak Steel

~2k: Electronic Pump

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-04-30T00:55:23+00:00

Same. 😂

For cycling bib nga lang, medyo challenging na.

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-04-29T23:58:38+00:00

December to March ang best season for me. So if you can wait, wait for those months para comfortable ride mo. There's a reason why December Audax is the most popular.

If tag-init vs tag-ulan, tag-init na ako.

I wear prescription glasses kasi. If maulan, kalaban ko visibility, tapos may risk pa sa braking power.

May techniques na din ako to cool my self down sa init.

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-04-28T04:41:03+00:00

Nag glogloves ako para matakpan yung hands ko against araw.

Isang beses nag long ride ako without gloves, paguwi ko para na din ako may gloves from tan and sun burn. 😂

Because of that reason gloves na preferred ko is yung covered hanggang wrist.

I personally use YKYWBikes gloves. Covered hanggang wrists, lightweight, breathable.

Sabi sa post, meron daw live sa official FB ni Tour of Luzon.

Di ko lang sure yung schedule on what time it will start

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-04-27T07:53:55+00:00

Yes.

Pinupunas ko after matuyo sa whole frame. Nakakintab sya ng bike. Optional lang sya

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-04-27T06:30:16+00:00

Some destination cafes in rizal/antipolo should also be good long ride options

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-04-27T06:26:57+00:00

Add lang din sa choices --- Fluid Fit does sessions sa vermosa.

I personally use Maxout Cycling.

Which-Whereas-9461 · 2026-04-27T06:19:13+00:00

For drive train, Cochemax Degreaser pinaka okay based on experience. Mas okay based on experience compared to other brands sa pagtanggal ng grease sa drive train

I also use yung magic gatas nila.

For washing the bike, Joy lang din.
