A beautiful bike, would happily ride this! He has obviously had bad advice/ service previously, which clouds his TCR opinion I think. At least now he is satisfied. He obviously has no problem funding his hobby, and seems a slave to fashion, but he is happy, and loves riding his bike, which is all that matters!!!
What rubbish lah, how can you (as an amateur) say TCR SL is tiring on pick up compared to pinarello. Only difference is size of head after wasting money on this bling bling want-to-be-like-pro bike. The “Something missing” he is referring to is his legs.
Probably is my legs. ;) It's a personal opinion, TCR is an endurance bike and the size was wrong because T** J******* sold me the wrong size and cut my ISP so low. I had to add spacers till it's maxed out to make it up, and that as well wasn't enough. Don't want to mention that live. ;)
No clue, not interested in Giants at all ever again. I bought 2 Giants back to back, enough money wasted on that brand. Hambini is also commented on the TCR. ua-cam.com/video/l0LoDys_Qsw/v-deo.html You can decide for yourself then. ;)
Really love that statement, " If you take care of the bike, the bike takes care of you ". That just resonates even after watching the vid. Nice interview. 👍
Try not to use WD40 to remove leftover adhesive. Because it is petroleum based, it will most likely damage the surfaces and paintwork. I suggest getting this product from hardware stores called Goo Gone. It is citrus oil based and does not damage surfaces. It will take slightly longer to remove residual adhesive but it works.
Actually most bike sizing now is based on the seat tube length since compact geometry is now prevalent. In the past, bikes with their horizontal top tubes, the TT length was the way to size then.
I totally agree with the owner said that ospw easy to clean it but if for who using shimano 105 will feel abit smooth mayb just because 105 is bush.. Mayb🤔🤔🤔
I think we have to learn a lot as roadies from the MTBers is the repair of tubeless tires with the worms. Every puncture encountered for tubeless should be seen as a chance to acquire the skill of repairing. The spare tube should be the last resort.
Can't see it when you buy it, only after you send it for full service then you find out. But additional 500 to fix up everything still a reasonable price as total spend.
Yes, it a joke. According to him 4 to 5 guys went through the bike and did not see the problem. I feel you have got yourself a lemon 🍋 and yet you feel is money well spent 🤦♂️. He contradict himself when asked what to lookout when buying a 2nd hand bike. He basically bought it in carousell from someone he don't know and in bad condition. Just hope his bike will not break on him as for carbon bike you can't be sure of the condition just by visual surface inspection.

23:17 my man, this freehub can easily wake up my whole neighbourhood for sahoor. I save this for my ramadhan alarm playlist.

@@ltan2798 hi bro which Tay junction did u go to? That's unprofessional of them to sell u the wrong size
Very stark difference from the previous George/Factor episode

Most bikes are sprays with paint that can handle WD40. For similar product I use Inox.
Pina sizing are not measure by top tube. The size numbers are actually the seat tube length
Yup you’re right

Hello where did he get his bike wrapping done at ?:)
Go for Rikekool please! :)

Nice bike at first I tot it was a Pinarello Paris in sky blue colour !
KIREI KIREI~ 🤜🏼🤛🏼
One of the best secret sauce shared! Haha.
Your friends psycho you to buy a f12… they never advise you not to buy a frame with holes and corrosion, all quiet? :S
😂😂😂😂😂

Where to go for your bike paint
Factory paint
The smoother peddling he mentions vs his prior bike (TCR) probably comes due to the OSPW
Haha. OSPW and my seat post was always creaking due to the added seat spacers stacked on the ISP.
Pinarello but why Sigeyi ?
because its stiffer and lighter, better shift performance too
Interesting video. Didnt know that hunts are louder than zipps
How can he said money don't buy you speed. You just spent 10k on a 2nd hand bike and said it is much faster than your previous bike.
i miss chicken genius!
Same, my entry to Tesla was April 2020. Have to thank him big time!
Of cos lah.... taiwanese brand can't compare to a European brand on the ride feel
Can share the bike wrapping contact?
RikeKool bro. :)
@@ltan2798 thanks!
How about the retouching of paint job?
Everything he said is from his friends.
woohoo 1st haha
When can we have a "non-COVID" era cyclist that has ridden for 5+ years that could share his/her experience on cycling.
I feel so disengaged with the society… this 2nd hand bike that havent been well maintained cost $10k minus wheels and the owner said its cheap 🥲
Supply demand things 😂
@@marcustan5868 i think this is the kind of price in the market right now… but i find it very hard to call this as cheap!
@@alostgeordie I guess if you have the money for it, by all means buy a bike that you love and will ride
@@marcustan5868 haha yeap, if i got the $ i dun mind one of this bike
Well, if I made a tidy profit from trading, why not treat yourself to a nice bike? :)
