[MT76]

I feel your pain. Remember my own experience. Brand New Bike, 3 days later found it slanted on a parking lot, plastics all cracked. Culprit was a young boy who kicked a ball.

aiya dun ride soo fast.. my friend fall at his own mscp when the floor is wet.. summore mscp floor is very2 slippery when wet. only near the up and down ramp then the texture changes to rough other than that its smooth surface.

[steel_headz]

Anyway wat to do...

 

Should not hv ride too fast after washing ur bike...

[keeny]

[Isopropyl]

wet after washing or rain is always dangerous.

 

does changing to better tyre reduce the risk?

MSCP first level is always so slippery after raining... i always neutral gear and tip toe to push my bike

[GuiNNeSS]

Dunno why they have to make MSCP with those super smooth cement floors. Brainless designers.

 

If you complain, they tell you, you should be riding slow. Should make those designers ride a bicycle.... i ever see bicycle fall at MSCP also...... recently at my MSCP they redesigned some of the corner sections to be a textured floor. but the straights are still slippery as ice.

bro i think i know why, correct me if im wrong.

 

U know road need that big big road machines to do right? cannot put inside mscp mah, I think thats the main prob~

quite sensible...

[GuiNNeSS]

Of course not to asphalt the car park interiors.

 

But they obviously can make textured surface inside the MSCP cos they can do it at certain places, including the actual slopes where they have those circle design; or the rough areas just after the turns. if i have chance i'll take a pic or 2 but u can see at the car parks.

[Option]

MY MSCP also got those rough flooring at the slopes and those circle things at the slope. My guess is their budget bro, expensive to put those~

[Fried Rice]

frankly speaking i have never wash my bike before

[Tachnicolour]

it's actually not that difficult to make the textured surface. after applying the concrete, all that needs to be done is to roughen up the surface with something like a rake or stiff broom/brush. the smooth concrete surface you see in the mscp is cuz they finish up by smoothening, with trowels etc. i reckon it's cuz it's not specified by the developer, e.g. HDB, in the older days.

 

no need to bring in compactors.

[KeraKing]

lesson 1: scooters are dangerous.

lesson 2: LV pipe on a gilera is really powerful.

lesson 3: better to have dirty bike than have crashed bike.

lesson 4: have a smoke after washing

lesson 5: pay someone to wash

u think they care that much?

[Tachnicolour]

u think they care that much?

 

It's precisely why i stated that i reckon it's cuz it's not specified by the developer, e.g. HDB. It's because no one bothered to design it as such.
