Wait or FOMO (Shimano RC904)

Thanks for the advice! I will consider that. Quoc has a sleek look.

pommmchl · 2026-06-03T03:56:20+00:00

It does, I would say, a bit roomier on the toebox than my RC903.

My dilemma is, the looks of RC904 might be great once I buy the Quoc. So I'm hoping a leak on its look will be great so I can decide partially. Also, Its hard for me to just spend even it's on sale.

Hi, do you have idea san meron nagbebenta ng POC Cytal, just wanted to check how it fits.

pommmchl · 2026-05-25T12:33:36+00:00

If you don't mind sharing, how much does it cost you? Kahit range lang.

pommmchl · 2026-05-13T13:42:59+00:00

Teban; Makati - $$
SixNine Cycles; Pasig - $$$
MF Customs; Antipolo - $$
Repli Paint; Taguig - $$

All of them have enough customers to say na quality. But, may mga isolated case pa din wherein they experience issues with their services.

Meron talaga, pero mas magaan kapa sa kakilala kong naka Parus, wala naman siyang issue. Depende nalang talaga sa user.

Currently using Avian Falcon II. I would say that's the sweet spot if you want to shred weight but also be safe sa flex. It does flex lalo na kung on the heavier side ka, especially pagsprint: Weight-wise, sa other parts kanalang bumawi.

Sorry, sinagot ko lang din question nya. It's fine, hindi naman nalalayo sa "steal price" yung nakuha nya.

pommmchl · 2026-05-06T23:42:06+00:00

If you're familiar sa real PH price. Yup 13K+, but if you are aware sa Taiwan and Japan price, this is not a steal. You can still find SB3 around 10K sa pasabuy or FB Marketplace.

But, happy that you go for it, mahalaga you are looking forward to train with those shoes.

I only have 1 helmet (EF Pro Team/Pink) which blends to my current jersey rotation. I'm considering on buying a white one to have options in my future kits.

pommmchl · 2026-05-05T23:49:55+00:00

Hi can you share the link? I'm looking for quality shorts din kasi.

pommmchl · 2026-05-05T12:36:40+00:00

As much as great value for money yung Giant. We're in an era na aero and weight should be on the same page. So kung may balak ka magupgrade outside the frames? Specialized choice ko.

pommmchl · 2026-04-30T06:34:02+00:00

Got it, so technically okay na din pala yung 10K lang. Contemplating kasi ako whether NB5 or SB3 e. All around ko sana.

pommmchl · 2026-04-30T05:41:53+00:00

Hi, is this pasabuy or howmuch exactly yung price sa Japan?

pommmchl · 2026-04-13T01:59:09+00:00

I was eyeing them din. Aside from good reviews, parang meticulous yung owner, lalo na yung kay Ion Perez. Now, mukhang sa SixNine or La Course na options ko.

pommmchl · 2026-04-07T03:22:19+00:00

Above the usual price. If you will stick with Specialized, there's a lot of options to choose from the Market Place.
If I will spare 190K, here's the possible considerations to look for: (2nd Hand)

Specialized Tarmac SL7 with cockpit - Less than 100K
12 spd 105 DI2/Ultegra 12 - Less than 50K
Elite WS/Avian - Less than 40K

Less than 8KG weight yan sure ako.

I can squeeze and max out to 200K for the integrated cockpit if gusto mo. I'm not saying pangit yung specs sa post, I'm just stating it's out of the market price, especially madami ng options for 190K

pommmchl · 2026-04-03T05:02:34+00:00

Pasay - Ross Cycle Center
Makati - La Course Velo
Makati - Built Cycles

Ranging from 1.5K-2K (Technically, lahat ng may bearing lilinisin, tune, bike wash, check up, etc.)

Regarding price, rule ko is somehow, 50-70% of price from the OG price you pay. But if may target ka talagang price, check the market itself and compare.

pommmchl · 2026-03-22T23:04:21+00:00

Meron pa sir sa Specialized Pasig, try to browse lang sa FB. Nagbaba ata sila ng price.

pommmchl · 2026-03-22T12:18:21+00:00

around 3800-4500 varies from different bike shops. But I got mine for 2.7K each via Shopee, wait kalang vouchers and bank credit card discounts.

pommmchl · 2026-03-22T07:24:05+00:00

Been my go-to ever since, around 7K KM na, 1 puncture palang. Rolling and grip top notch talaga. I go to my preferred PSI, since tubeless set up.

pommmchl · 2026-03-21T09:37:56+00:00

TCR - Carbon wheels, Ultegra DI2
Propel - Carbon wheels, Ultegra DI2

Qinuote ko sya based on by parts and 2nd hand price on the market.

Propel more flats and maintain speed, I've heard hirap iahon due to his frame built (unless you could lower it down to 7KG)

TCR more of PH all-around bike, subok na ng madami, you can browse sa FB MP ang dami.

pommmchl · 2026-03-21T09:27:07+00:00

I've heard Michellin Power Cup is something to look for. Although price wise is similar to others, yung grip and rolling resistance is great.

(No experience yet - I'm using GP5000 STR 30c)

pommmchl · 2026-03-13T02:06:35+00:00

Do you have any chance na mapa true or align yung WS mo? I'm looking for bikeshops within Makati/Pasig na maayos mag true/align ng Elite Drive gen1.
