Finally.. I got a roadbike!!


Yea.. I was diligently looking up bicyclebuysell when I got time.. Macam orang gila saham.. naik kepala I tell u.. day in day out glueing to this site waiting for the right fish to bait.. or perhaps i am the fish waiting to be bait. 

Yesterday I had a very long day fixing customer stuff in Klang until almost 2am..reached home 3am liao.. then U know lah 24 and heroes just came up new series..then cook series until 4 something..then customer call..wow.. i told the customer they could call me 24 /7 and they really honor it..

Then today wake up also blurr 2 at 10am.. then login to bicyclebuysell.. then tetiba nampak a trek bike 1200 SL for sales with full Shimano 105 groupset.. going at a quite decent price.. Beh tahan jor.. then contacted that fler thru sms... oh... that bike is in IPOH!! IPOH.. 

Sap sap sui...2 hours drive only mah.. So I supposed to teached Dinesh to swim today in the evening..turn out I asked him to follow me to Ipoh to secure this bike.. was suppose he wanted to sell to another fler who agreed one but thru post lah.. I said I can come up to Ipoh today..so he called that fler to confirm..then priority was given to me.. 

So off I drove to Ipoh with Dinesh and we stopped at Bidor for wan tan duck mee since the meeting  time is after 7.30.. 

We went Jusco lepak for  awhile and at 8 something we meet at the McD car park near the toll plaza.. Wow..this was a classic frame.. so the geometry ada lain sikit lah.. Then in the end, went to this seller and his fren house to pasang the pedal as it was included as well and adjust the seat post... ok lah.. saddle can sit at a comfortable position..then secure the deal eventually. Thanks to Zir and Amir.. 

This bike is not all that red actually its metallic red and orange color.. there are tend to 8/10 lah for this bike.. So now I should have enuff time for the PD tri training... 

Aint you love the roadbike.. it just cruise so fast.. I hope Koh can do a good job to help me kautim the adjustment for everything....
