My Nouvo MX is fitted with Excel Spoke Rims '17' done by the previous owner.

[Old Rider]

My original tyre was 16 inch, when I had it changed in JB only 17 inches with tubeless tire available at that time. The tyre pressure has to be increase to 210kpa front and 235kpa rear, due to bigger tyre. It is smoother and I have been using it for more than 7 months now.

Nice! I think I need to change the rim to 17". Because right now, I am using 2 rear tyres 16 80/90. Pumping 43P which is 295kpa.

 

OldRider: May I know what is the tyres size that u r using now?

eg. 70/90 17" Front

[Jixiang]

Anyone knows where I can get Pirelli Mandrake MT 15 16" 70/90 - Front and 80/90 - Rear in Singapore?

Which shop,bro?

[Jixiang]

Some of the shops in Singapore says that our Nouvo cannot change the rims to 17"!! I really dunno what to do now as our tyres are so limited!!!!

[Jixiang]

logen1836: Bro, then where u changed yours?

[h4hahak1m]

The SBF anniversary is here finally. Do join us the competition to show support. I've been assured that the prizes they give are more than what you will pay for. Very high chance that u'll get one also. very interesting prizes also. So come down and show support ah. Pump full tank also now near 10 bucks already!

 

We're the largest community in SBF but when it comes to SBF events, the numbers don't show. So like someone said to me "Don't be a forumer just behind the screen, take part and support this community"

 

So yah, there's 100 slots and the cubs community makes up like 70% of the whole forum. No need everyone go la but at least 50 from us would be enough. I'm going definately

 

 

 

 

Sorry for the thread invasion
