Ooo. Thats a really nice looking bike there. Btw, where did u get that brand from? Havent seen it anywhere before.

Another suggestion would be to post up specs as well. Hehe.

My bike will be up as soon as i replace my dead rims.

About your rims right, i have not decided whether i wanna buy them or not but will let u know asap ya.

Happy riding
Cheers

New Zealand actually and they are big in OZ as well

Joshie · Posted: Tue Mar 14, 2006 10:46 pm Post subject:

chief, is that a complete wheel or just the rims? if it is just the rims, spokes alone will cost me almost rm2 for one. so that will be about rm64. plus hubs. :shock: boon foo offered me somethin glike that for rm178.

hehe, not enough money now ler. budget around rm150 only.maybe can be more if i can convince my parents to subsidise for me. hehe. tahts why looking for a replacement rim. but i'll keep looking around. thanks for the help ya.

btw, would love to see more pics of your blur. bigger ones. hehe

mavic 117 32 hole disc for rm70 ? i presume it's a piece

fakawichief · Posted: Fri Apr 07, 2006 11:07 am Post subject:

xtcgodzilla · Posted: Fri Apr 07, 2006 11:09 am Post subject:

how does 117 compares to 223 and 221 ?

at rm70/pc i 'm interetsed

Joshie · Posted: Fri Apr 07, 2006 11:15 am Post subject:

not sure how it compares though but if u are interested in mavic x211 let me know. can get it for rm120.

xtcgodzilla · Posted: Fri Apr 07, 2006 11:21 am Post subject:

i'm lookin for disc rims.. the 117 sounds like a good buy. weight wise i think a bit heavier than 223 and 221

117 - 450g
223 - 434g
221 - 440g

so where can i get this 117 ?
