Mike Brisco replied to Dario Gautama's discussion Is it safe?"Sounds OK to me.
In terms of risk management - You could always swap that back tyre for the front - it'll get less wear - and you'll have a better tyre on the back. "
"the thing is with tyres, they are your sole contact point, the front is where its more critical as its your steerer and a blow-out there is usually when it goes pear shaped, in the rear, at times its so slow, that you only notice when its totally…"
durian rider replied to Dario Gautama's discussion Is it safe?"You don't want to see my GP4000's lol!
I literally run the rear till I can see literally an inch of second layer canvas. Then I replace it. I check my tyres a few times a week. Every time I get a flat I give em an even closer inspection.…"
rossmg replied to Dario Gautama's discussion Is it safe?"It'll be fine - I had a tyre with a similar skid scuff mark and I rode it for a long way, no problems."
Nick Lothian replied to Dario Gautama's discussion Is it safe?"It's probably safe, but it perhaps has less puncture protection than it used to.."

I just done sudden braking because a stupid adelaide metro bus suddenly pull off and nearly crush me and another cyclist front of me.At home, I check my rear tyre (Conti GP4000S) and there is a rough surface right in the middle around 3-3.5 cm long which I assumed caused by skid from sudden brake.Do I need change my tyre? It is not really deep and there is no tears but I am afraid it can be dangerous (millage checker is still deeper than this rough surface).See More

Dario Gautama replied to heather's discussion Decrease Risk of Bicycle Theft in the group Stolen Bicycles Adelaide"1. Always find a review for the locks before buy one. Expensive d-locks is not really guarantee it is the good one.2. Get a GPS tracker if you have expensive bike3. Always make a list or remember all of the part which installed on your bike4. Record…"
Dario Gautama replied to Rey Gomez's discussion Fluid 26" Mountain Bike Stolen"Remember to always use D-locks (yeah 2 of them if you are using quick release)
I am still surprised by a bicycle shop in the city who are always recommending cable locks over d-locks.

My first month of riding bicycle
Posted on March 24, 2012 at 18:00 6 Comments 5 Likes
I was never expecting that I will like cycling just like right now.
First reason that i started cycling because I cannot afford a car and I need transportation that is not public transport.
Why I choose Bianchi as for my first bike?
Well....when I am searching for my bike, I encounter many bike from different kinds and brands.
When I see Bianchi Via Nirone 7, I simply fall in love at first sight and I cannot free my mind from that bike.
Finally I bought it…
