  • The pic taken at Jakarta.

    Pardon the water bottle. This bike used to be mine but now my good friend take care of it. Though he's not that detail when it comes to bike.

    Anyhow, here's my merckx with new Turbo saddle. Look much retro with matchy white perforated leather saddle n bartape. Previously I used black SLR saddle (second pic).

  • It's fun riding in Jakarta - great cycling scene with a real mix of roadies, fixed gears, cool vintage bikes, big Brompton crews. It's a huge city but with some amazing road riding in the mountains nearby

  • Wheels are from local builder in Bali, I guess he ordered the rim from Kinlin. It has similarities with Hunt Aero 31 (which uses kinlin rims).

    Cycling around Jakarta is quite challenging, though its quite fun especially in early morning in weekends.

    @Momentum whoah hello, surprised to see another Jakartan in here. The photo was taken at semanggi flyover, always empty at Sunday morning because of car free day.

    Definitely will say hello if I see you and your bike, I usually ride my Ritchey / merckx / hampsten (all steel) on Sat or Sun morning.
