Bike Selection Exploration 3- Talk with Faizal 25th April 2013

I have decided to get Ortlieb Ultimate to be mount on handle bar of my bike. Dave Ern recommend me to get it from Faizal as he is quite reasonable. I am not sure that whether is my bike handle bar aluminium or carbon fibre (if over tighten, it will the carbon, that's why people does not recommend to mount anything on carbon fiber frame).So, i brought my bike to show it to Faizal to make sure it is suitable. Thank god, it is ok. Then, i got it (try to get yellow color, but no stock.)

However, purchasing of tangle frame is not very smooth. I had problem buying from amazon.com. I have to find other baggage solutions because Ortlieb itself is not enough to carry everything. Faizal suggested me to wrap the tyre and inner tube around the bike stand and cover it with plastic. With the tyre storage issue solve, if by the travel date i still could not get the frame bag, i will carry my hydrapak.
