Bicycle Tube - Things To Consider

Image
Bicycle Tubes , they force you to frequent to a bicycle store/workshop, either for a puncture or for air filling. The visit can be reduced if not eliminated by Use Butyl tube instead of Latex, they are stronger, lighter and can retain precious pascals for longer periods of time. Have a spare tube with you always. If a tube has a habit of frequent punctures its good to replace it soon than fix the puncture again and again. One of my factory fitted tubes had frequent puncture problems this was fixed once changed the tube for good. Butyl tubes are costlier compared to latex ones, but yes the cost is justified for what you get back. Share your happiness with your workshop guy too, give him some Tip once in a while.

There is nothing more dynamic than life itself, a street salesman was selling pens and claimed life time guarantee for his product, one of his pens failed to work and the buyer complained that your guarantee is false. The salesman replied “what is the guarantee of life? None At All!!!.”. I have seen how elders have been cautious towards the world, prophet (peace be upon him) used to say whose nearest meaning is “When Allah bestows his love on his slave, he saves them from this world( riches, glitz and glamour) like you would save your sick from water”. It is narrated regarding Junaid Bagdadi (Rah) that he was a merchant of precious gems and stone, his shop was attractive and he himself sat slanting on cushions as he sold them. One among the people complained that you are a saintly person yet you sit in attractive shop slanting on luxurious cushions. Upon numerous such remarks he replied that his business demanded such an environment, and he tore his cushion to the people's surprise

Electric Lines ->> Shift of overhead electric lines to underground electric lines Airport ->>Flights between 6am to 7am and 6pm to 8pm to and from Kochi to all Metros.
