some brakes are actually made out of wood..

suddenly i remembered last week, exchanged bike with a fellow friend of mine for him to test on my front fork settings.

and so i got a chance to test his bike as well..

from there, got to know that some brakes, are actually made out of wood!

didn't get it? here's the dialog..

Me: Weh, the first minute aku ride moto ko, aku notice one thing..
Him: What?
Me: Sampai je simpang depan umah ko tu.. aku try tap brake dgn 2 fingers... damn! nothing happened!!
Him: Started to laugh tanpa belas kasihan
Me: Aku kene grip semua jari sepenuh ati aku, baru motor slowdown, and i was at,.. what.. 30km/h? Nyaris terlajak simpang dowhhh..
Him: Ha.. baru ko tau, brake aku tu kayu!!
Me: lol'd

If u still didn't get it, book your time to test ride his bike.. and u'll know!

And please do this before he got himself a set of six-pot brembo calipers and master pump, with hel steel braided lines!! (which i think, not in the next 10years in his biking career).

and btw, he's using a korean made bike rebadged to a local maufacturer's name. :)
