when we get there, Apartment Sri Anggerik 2 if i'm not mistaken, we were greet warmly by the seller which his name is Khairul Anuar where we just called him Abang Nuar.. he brings us into his house. then he bring out all the bicycle parts that my friend Wafi wants to see. All the parts were dissambled before because he thinks he wants to reconditioned it before selling it but sadly he didn't had the time to do it as this is his hobby but work and family does comes first for a family man.
The body name is L'Esprit de Champione and all the gear parts is from Shimano 600. He told us every thing about that bike and other side info about the gearing, the body and other parts. He asks Wafi on what kind of bike he wants to make, is it a Fixie or a Racing Bike? Wafi just answered Racing Bike but with a curved straight handle because he wants to buil that bike for his father. And Abg Nuar take out from his 'Doraemon Box' and showed to us many kind of handle and one of it is the right kind. The handle is made by Bridgestone and made in Japan. Then the miracle word came out, "If you wants it, I'll just give it to you then..". We were really stunned. Then Wafi said that he wants to use the upward kind of stem (the thing that holds the handle), then Abg Nuar said that he thinks that he had that kind and he just search it in the cupboard. And he said it again, "takes it if you want to". Stunned again...
While we were talking about bicycles, the he goes to his room and take out a 700 front rim sized complete with tyres and tube. He said that the rear rim was bent badly that he dont want to keep the front 'if we want it'. He just let us keep it. Woah, what kind of rezeki today.
Then Wafi said his intention of buying and Abg Nuar asks him if he really wants to because don't want him to regret of buying . Then we get to the nearest CIMB Bank which was directed by Abg Nuar.
When we came back to his house, he was assembling some part of the bike. He said that the bike he got from his father which his fathers didn't wants him to sell it. But he said that he also loved the bike but time is a crucial thing and the bicycle project was abandon for a long time. He said that he didn't had the time but if others had the time and really wants to use it, he might as well sell it for others to use rather than keep it abandon. He learnt it from an uncle which sold him one of the bikes he used to had. He's a nice person indeed.
Instead of a set of bike, we get extra handles, stems and rims for only RM 600!! Really damn cheap and the process was a lot of fun and knowledgeable too. We thanks him really much. Thanks Abg Nuar!!
After settle in Kinrara, we head back and Wafi told his intention of letting me reconditioned the bike because he don't hav the time because he is now working. Hmm, why not doing what i really like. Alright then!!
The rebirth process will be started soon.....
