My bike
We have a lot of Japanese reconditioned bikes here. It's very popular among the folks here as well as the foreign workers. Very much like the Velorbis bikes.

While wondering around the Dataran Penggaram, I saw this very own Malaysian style single speed cargo bike...but the owner was not there.
I saw this bike at the traffic light of Jalan Tan Swee Hoe. The box attached to the rear carrier really attracted me. It's a DIY box decorated with CDs around the box. Owned by a 62 year old uncle staying in Parit Besar. He told me that the box is very convenient for him to put his packed food when he goes to work. (sorry image not that clear)
I met this foreign worker on my way back home. Look at his wheelset. A DIY as well:-) Whaa...not bad..very creative.
This boy happily willing to pose with his Japanese bike.
Who knows maybe one day Batu Pahat can become like Copenhagen. Why not? Maybe we should launch a campaign there. The traffic jams is quite bad nowadays.

Bro Zizan,
Brp harga re-conditioned Japs bike tu? Nostalgia lah, used to own one before kena kebas.
Betul tu Bro Johor is still a cycling state. The state that impose roadtax for bicycle long time ago. On the way to Tanjung Piai I saw Shimano factory in Pekan Nenas. Basikal jepun ok gak tolong survey kat mana nak beli.

Oh orang Batu Pahat gak ya..Actually kalau setakat Batu Pahat best kayuh basikal je kalau nak ke mana2. Batu Pahat now dah busy..kecoh nak cari parking kereta. Pastu sistem kupon letak kereta sangat tak sesuai untuk orang yang balik sekali sekala. Diaorang patut pakai sistem masuk siling dan print tiket parking macam kat Shah Alam.
bro, how much fixie bike at jln limpoon? yg murah2 sudahla..want to buy onelah..tq
Jemput
Senang email sy ya. TQ
