got a pinch flat last sunday. after truing the rear wheel, rode around 10k. then while preparing for the trail at the end of fernwood, tssssssssssssssssssssss sound. got a hole near a spoke. i was thinking either because of the truing or some bunny jumps i did with low psi tires. i pack a new continental 29 interior. when i was to air it i realized i dont have the adapter for the presta! stupid. good thing i have a 40 pesos patch kit.  lesson, always have a patch kit even if you have extra inner tube.
this experience lead me to ghetto tubeless. i ll convert them these weekend. im still looking for a good sealant in sulit. last resort is ofcourse stans notubes sealant

Ser san galing yung butas sa spokes sa loob ng rims?
I always make sure na pareho yung reserve kong tube sa gamit ko...
anyway ser goodluck sa ghetto tubeless, dont forget to post pics

Tingin ko dahils sa manipis na rim tape baka kinayod ng spoke/nipple yun inner tube. Parang numipis kase yun area na iyon siguro sa displacement ng hangin pag irregular yun trail.
Ang gusto ko sa tubeless pag nasiraan ka sa daan, di ka naman binabawalan mag salapk ng emergency inner tube =] hassle daw kase mag baon ng co2, sealant at ng extra tire para mag ayos ng tubeless sa daan

Ahhh manipis na rim tape... Try mo lumang interior as replacement for rim tape kung hinde ka maarte sa weight ser...
Suggestion lang naman po...
mahirap talaga walang dalang gamit di mo kase alam kung kelan mo sya kakailanganin e.

Thanks sa tip. Yep pinalitan ko na yun tape. Packing strip ginamit ko na magaan. Although may tape ako na parang may linya ng fiber glass. Polar yun brand. Baka palitan ko non before mag ghetto.
Bigat nga setup ko, tingin ko 35++ lbs. Ok workout. Pero pag long distance at may backpack, hirap. Balak ko pa naman mag century this long wkend kaya lang baka di kayanin hehe. Tsaka na ako mag weeenie uupgrade =] too much spending for little grams reduce. Parang hifi audio at gears lang din hehe. Although most suggest na mag start sa wheelset at drivetrain pag mag rereduce ng weight dahil sa rollibg resistance. Usually kase fork at frame agad iisipin palitan

[perkish4]

Importante po ba ang brands sa MTB? hehehe sobrang liit lang kasi ng budget ko eh. mga 3-5k lang

Not sure kung sa thread na 'to dapat.

I'm planning to buy a foldy, for use sa work. The office is just 5 blocks away from home, and I only have less than 30 sqm. living space, so a full bike is not an option plus I want to bring it inside the office for security.

As a guide, are bikes considered pedestrians or vehicles?

for me, pedestrians parin, although i maybe wrong. my thinking is, as long as its not motorized and hindi sya makoconsider na vehicle. di ko sure pre ah naisip ko lang yan anong foldy balak mo? dahon?

Doppelganger, or kahit surplus lang, tapos setup ng kaunti.

hey guys,

i'm kind of planning to buy a bike for health reasons n rin.

is it better to buy one as a whole or by parts then assembled?

and where do you recommend to buy some affordable ones just for starters? i live near Marikina-QC Area

Madami bike shops sa QC...
Sa Quiapo tabi tabi din
Pag Build bike na ung buo na mas mura. kaso dehins mo mapipili parts
Pro: Pag ayaw mo na mag bike naka tipid ka.
Cons: Pag nahiligan mo. yari, mag upgrade ka

May bike fit po ang frame sir, depende sa Height nyo...
Mahalaga po ang bike fit dahil pag mali size ng bike nyo mahirap mag bike di kayo tatagal...
Magtira ng budget sa Helmet
