The Aftermath

Wah leow. I still cannot get over the smoothness and the agility my Iguana has. And I thought the brakes sucked initially, because it had 50% efficiency until its bedded in.

You know what else I can't get over? Bveing totally broke. LOL.

I think its almost fully bedded in and just 20 minutes ago, I nearly got thrown off the bike cos I jammed the brakes.

Haha. Truly, Juicy brakes are the best! And I can keep saying 'juicy' when I'm safely speeding down a hill with the knowledge that my brakes have enough power to stop my colossal speeding mass.

Maybe that's what I bought it for. Anyways, just 4 days after its purchase, I upgraded the bike, haha. Sort of la. I bought Specialized handlebar grips. Ok la, I know my bike is not from Specialized, but its nice enough to pretend...

Could've have bought the Scott grips but that'll just scream 'wannabe'.

Oh, I bought a Lizardskin chainstay so the chain won't scratch the frame on bumps. Giant hardtail frames are prone to chain-rub, according to forums. I think its sort of good, cos it lowers the bike's CG, making it stable.

I feel so damn bloody satisfied right now. Tmw, I'm going to ubin again. Really hope I don't fall and damage my bike. But so far, I find my confidence improving. Yay!!!

We'll see how la tmw.

Hope won't counter pure inability. LOL.
