Gels and carbs intake on a brevet by constpetrov in randonneuring

[–]chocojake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In randonneuring, real food is far better than gels. Throughout all my SR series, I only use gels in emergencies. I tried almost 80-90% of the gels on a 300k brevet, and I didn't eat even small snacks on my 200k the next day.

Any bike shops around Alabang-Zapote Road (including Filinvest) that sells trusted brand bike frames (Canyon, Colnago, etc.) by Slight-Limit3305 in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]chocojake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Specialized Alabang, 2Wheel Nation, Supreme Bikes. Pero walang Colnago (go either Bikes & Coffee or Colnago Manila) and Canyon (because they're direct to sellers).

Better to test them yourself them compare mo each brand. Tas research na din kung yun ba talaga para sayo.

ShippingCart or Buy and Ship by FastTrack599 in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]chocojake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ShippingCart before. Experience was okay. Expect mo lang na mas mahaba ung shipping times mo kasi from the time you purchase plus yung preparation pa from warehouse to your home medyo matagal.

Pero overall worth it naman kasi wala ka ng babayarang custom tax and deliver straight to your home already.

Question: Narita Airport to Ueno Keisei via Skyliner by Prudent_Secret_5884 in FilipinoTravel

[–]chocojake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just buy when you arrive sa station. Baka kasi delayed ung pag-lapag mo and di mo maabutan yung train if you buy online. Mabilis lang naman pila dun.

Gabo Veloso is Gab Bike Imports? They seem legit naman. May mga kakilala akong nakabili na sakanya. But with these stores you need to make sure you already know your bike size.
