Newbee to cycling from Sri Lanka
Hi all
i'm Tharaka from Sri Lanka
there seems to be some cycling activity around here
I'm new to cycling; its been only 2 weeks since i got this my used vintage bike.
As my 6years old son start cycling; i just wanted to join him.
somehow i did 105kms in the second week. it seem i have some taste in it.. If it clicks more interest will invest more...

Welcome Tharaka! 105 km's in a week is a lot if you are just starting out!

I ride 1988 Bridgestone RB1 (I think). Have replaced frame shifters to handle with mountain shifters. Since road bike shifters were expensive to invest as it's a new hobby.
I'm just thinking would I require a fitment, would be great if you have any tips.

Welcome. If you aren’t having any problems, I would wait getting fitted. You need a good base of riding and let your riding muscles develop before locking in on a fit.
