Trinity says “Hello World!”

by Rahul on Nov.14, 2009, under Cycling

Three months of excessive research and drooling on various cycles in the market, my web history now shows more searches on cycles than programming specific doubts.

After Rs. 50, 000/- and a sleepless night later came,

Trinity.

My first proper MTB.

Cannondale Trail SL F4.

A beauty from every fucking angle possible.

Lighter than the 12.5kg dumbbell in the gym…

Paint job sexier than the FTV super model’s makeup…

Suspension softer than a Kurlon mattress…

Gear shifting crispier than a Lays chip…

Hydraulic disc brakes to make her stop where and when you wish to…

And the list goes on and on, and on, AND ON…

Check out the photos below!

Thanks a million to Praveen for putting up with me and my crazy ideas till the very last day, and Krish of the-bike-affair for setting me up with my Trinity.

My Lumala up for Sale [SOLD]

by Rahul on Nov.11, 2009, under Uncategorized

I am putting up my 21 gear cycle, Lumala Sport, originally priced Rs. 5000, for sale for Rs.3000. Following are the details,

1. Rode a total of 800km of which 100 were done 3 years ago.
2. The cycle underwent two complete maintenance checks in the last two months.
3. It has new tires, new tubes and a new seat post. I also got the
gear shifters and brake levers replaced. The whole affair costed me a
total of 2.5k.
4. Medium size frame.

I wish to sell this one to upgrade to a better model which can handle my 300km per week torture.

Reply if you are interested or have any questions.
