  • meron kaya "square taper crank arms to hollowtech BB" spindle?

    planning to reuse sana ung 50-34t stock square taper crank ng gravel ko but retaining ung BB-MT500, currently using MT300 44-22 2by setup

  • Ano recommended na sulit torque wrench?
  • parecommend po ng mtb or gravel bike - 20-25k pang grocery at kaunting ride na rin?
  • Ano recommended na sulit torque wrench?


    Bike hand pre or yung giant torque wrench sa lifecycle nasa 2.5k and up

    Thanks sa online shops ito nga yung mostly nakikita ko.
  • Ugh, seller ran out of stock on my target continental ride tour, any suggestions on semi slick tires that's still has good puncture protection? preferably around 38-40C
    Maxxis Receptor?
    Panaracer GravelKing SS?

  • ^ I've been using pirelli cinturato H running tubeless on 38psi. So far so good, and is really fast on paved easily hitting 50+ kph on descent. Hindi ko lang sure kung available sa pinas.
  • ^ meron online, kaso mas mahal kesa mga ibang simialr tires hehe
    Edit: Ended up getting Panaracer Gravelking Plus 38C for now, for a good price, doble price ng mga velocita and other tires.

  • My gravel handle bar has around 460mm length on the location of the brake lever clamp and a flare of around 500mm. Stem of 100mm, pwede ba ako mag 80mm stem for a bit more relaxed position without affecting too much of the stability?
  • ^ i'm using 60mm (from 100mm), a little bit twitchy during high speed descends but manageable,, negligble for low speed
  • ^wow 60mm upright mtb position na sakin yun hehe, gano kalapad ba handlebar mo sir. Iniisip ko mga palit ako slightly smaller to 420mm with not so aggressive flare na up to 480 or 460mm lang and smaller size

    Also, san ba maganda kumuha thru axle skewers just in case? stock pa kasi sakin and just like on my other bikes bago ako nagpalit ng hubs, me time na napuputol sa abuse. Online parang wala ako makita 15mm na diameter na axle puro 12mm.
    Edit: scratch that, 12mm pala gamit ko, hindi kasi nakasulat ng maayos sa skewer.

    Anong range nyan, Nm? 2-14Nm?
  • meron kaya "square taper crank arms to hollowtech BB" spindle?

    I think you'll need to bring your cranks to a fabricator/machinist to install the hollow spindle into the existing cranks for that to happen. The sheer absence of such a conversion speaks volumes of its impracticality. I bet it won't be cheap and that you're probably better off either sticking to your square taper BB or getting a 50/34 hollowtech crank for your hollowtech BB.
  • Anong range nyan, Nm? 2-14Nm?


    Yeah mga ganun



  • Dame na nag bibike ngayon
  • ^nice, pansin ko dumami since pandemic, ako dun sa TPC MTB group dati since 2013, kelan lang nag shift to gravel.

  • maganda lang pumunta dyan kapag weekdays hahaha
  • may official distributor ba ang Canyon dito sa pinas? TIA!
  • mabilis lang ba maubos battery ng xoss speed/cadence sensor or any other sensor in general? roughly 400km pa lang dedz na battery palit na para gumana ulit. HR sensor ko na xoss 3000km na buhay pa din.
  • may official distributor ba ang Canyon dito sa pinas? TIA!


    W A L A

    HAHAHA EU at US countries lang ata target consumer ng CANYON eh..

    Parang sila yung Giant ng EU kasi sila yung mga bang for the buck bikes

    Pag andito sa pinas parang mamahalin hahaha

    Bili ka na lang xplova sa shopee pre, X2 ata model nasa 4k below, tibay battery life nun hahaha
  • ^me nakita din kasi ako mga wahoo and garmin cadence sensor na users sa ibang forums mabilis lang din daw maubos battery parang inconsistent, meron din ako nakita similar xoss din pero tagal maubos, di kaya me something lang sa bike na parang nag aactivate sa sensor, dapat siguro tanggalin battery after any ride.

    canyon? dun sa pinagbilhan ko ng bike parang me pre order sila Canyon grail hehe

  • wahoo and garmin cadence sensor na users sa ibang forums mabilis lang din daw maubos battery


    Naka garmin HR and speed and cadence sensor ako dati pero hindi mabilis maubos

    Gamit ko ngayon is yung Giant Ride sense sa TCR para sa speed ko tapos yung cadence nasa assioma power meter ko na

    Tapos sa HR naman, yung Magene na tag 700 lang, umabot isang taon battery haha
  • Me something lang siguro nagti trigger sa sensor, sa HR sensor kasi mag aactivate lang naman siya normally pag nag karoo ng closed circuit mga nodes niya, tanggalin ko na lang battery if di ginagamit ng mga cadence/speed, dami ko na nabili na battery eh hehe
  • ang laki nga ng tubo ng mga reseller ng Canyon dito sa atin, halos 30 to 40% markup based sa SRP nung bike, hirap patulan haha
