Insta360 x3 cycling on my java j air fuoco under the moon roll effects #insta360x3

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I really love my new Insta360 X3 action camera. I finally got it after my GoPro Hero 10 bloated battery got stuck inside it and I inadvertently spoiled it. For now, I just keep it inside my cupboard hoping to one day be able to repair it. If ever!

Anyway, the Insta360 X3 is now my go-to action camera. What really sold me was the invisible stick. I've been wanting to use it to take videos of me cycling. The cool thing is because of the camera's 'blind spot' it can't see the stick below it. So, it seems invisible. Cool isn't it?

Insta 360 also has its own apps and users page. You can upload your videos there and learn tutorials too. I love the free video editing software and cool graphic effects available for free. I have used the sky cool painting and the moon roll effects for the above video.

Another cool feature of the Insta360 X3 is that it doesn't matter how you hold the stick or the camera, you'll get 360 views. You don't have to bend it like a GoPro to get a selfie. It'll actually show the stick in your video. I didn't know how the invisible stick work at first.

Insta360 114cm Invisible Selfie Stick

Yes, it'll take a 360 view. You'll then, edit the video and choose which POV aka point-of-view you want. For example, when I'm cycling, I can hold the selfie stick in front of me, over my shoulder, put it inside my backpack with the stick, sticking out like an antenna, etc.

When I'm at home, I can edit the video on my iPhone or Macbook. During editing, I can move around the video and choose which point of view I like or prefer. I might want a front view of my cycling. I can then choose another POV from the side, top, or back. Way cool!

Insta360 Chest Strap

What I also like about Insta360 apps for mobile phones is also I can choose which ratios I like. Be it 9:16 or 16:9. Since YouTube now has the #shorts video sharing mode, I can re-edit, re-pov, and re-ratio any videos I took with the X3. 

The video quality is very good and stable. You can also take quality pictures with it. Read up on their specs for more info. So far, I haven't had any problem editing the videos on my iPhone 13. There's no long pause or stutters. They also saved the editing on auto for you just in case. 

Insta360 X3 Battery

A couple of months back, or rather last year 2023, today is the 1st of 2024. Someone asked me about my GoPro, which I was using to record my cycling. He had wanted to buy a GoPro for a long time. I told him, I was the same as him and finally got it. However, I did think of getting the insta360.

He wasn't sure about the insta360 and his mind was rather made up to buy the GoPro. If he had asked me now whether to get the GoPro or Insta360 X3, I would have said get the X3. The video quality is on par with the GoPro. You can also do more creative stuff with the video taken with an X3.

In all, I'm satisfied with the insta360 X3 and plan to make more videos and probably some pictures too. So, don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel. Thank you all for the support in 2023. Happy New Year 2024 and wish you all the best in the coming year. Cheers!

I went for night ride test on my java j air fuoco road bike to lor halus and punggol boardwalk

Java Suprema Carbon Fiber Shimano 105 Speed Road Racing Bike Bicycle Worldwide Shipping

Hey guys,

Check it out!

So, I went out to test my new Java J Air Fuoco Disc carbon road bike - GOld and it was a joy to ride on. Not totally perfect though. As I'll need to do some bike fitting of my own. Especially, since I'm not so err..athletic. Everyone's body sizes are different, as long as you're comfortable.

I need to saw again the seatpost maybe an inch shorter. My drop bar is way too low for me. I can raise the height but I'll need to buy a fork extender. My drop bar is a carbon-integrated type, so I can't adjust the height and length of the bike stem unless I change it to a non-integrated type.



Java Suprema Carbon Fiber Shimano 105 Speed Road Racing Bike Bicycle Worldwide Shipping

I do like the integrated drop bar. It's maybe a bit too long for my short arm's length. The good thing is, it makes me more aero. The only problem for me is that it's giving me pain in the neck yesterday night. My bike frame is already the smallest I could find and I still need to do some bike fitting.

I'm wondering if I should have got a little bigger road bike size. I compare it with my Java Veloce road bike and the front head side is actually higher. The thing is even after doing some bike fitting on my Veloce, I still think, there's more I can do to make it more comfortable.



Vision Metron 5D Road Handlebar with Integrated 100mm Stem, Drop: 125mm, Reach: 80mm, W: 420mm

Unless you're a professional cyclist with all the support of sponsors, you can easily build a bike that'll truly fit you to the T. In spite of all that, I'm not complaining though. The Java J air carbon is a good bike. I'm even surprised at how tough a carbon bike is. With all the horror stories I've heard.

I'm beginning to love everything carbon about a bike. The integrated drop bar isn't all that bad too. Ok, if you can find one that really fits you. If not, just get a non-integrated carbon drop bar. I might do that down the line. Maybe, the technology has got better even for $1k+ carbon fiber road bikes. 



REDSHIFT ShockStop Suspension Seatpost for Bicycles, Shock-Absorber Bike Seat Post for Road, Gravel, Hybrid, and E-Bikes

I love the carbon fiber wheelset too. This was the first time, I ride on one. Feels solid and sturdy. The free hub sound is really loud. It is so loud, I don't even have to tell people to get out of my way as they can hear my wheels churning behind them. It's kinda funny.

One thing is for sure, I need to learn which gears to use as I'm used to my 9-speed veloce road bike. The java j air is 11 speed. I keep forgetting to get into the lowest gear fast when I need to climb up a slope. Always find out my mistake halfway pedaling up.

I must say, I'm also loving wearing a non-cleat rubber sole cycling shoe. I have never worn any kind of cycling shoe much less with a cleat. I'm not really a serious cyclist, mostly just for leisure. I like some of the designs and colors. Wore it yesterday and it was really comfy and stuck to the pedal like glue. 

I usually cycle to interesting places that I've never been to and will sometime bring my camera along. That's why I prefer not to wear cycling shoes with cleats. I can't walk around with them. That's why I find it much better to wear cycling shoes with rubber soles. It felt 'normal' and comfortable.

Check out some of my road bike pics below:

A beautiful evening sunset and a nice cooling night to go test ride on my new Java J Air Fuoco Disc carbon gold color road bike. A little too dark in some areas as I can't see some bumps and didn't lose control. Also, a cyclist should point their light low instead of at other cyclists' faces. 

I couldn't see anything because of some idiot's on-coming bike light pointing right at my face. There are also certain times when other cyclists couldn't keep right or left and I had to swerve away. Be aware of where you are and what you do. Use some common sense ffs.

I love cycling on my java veloce road bike to punggol boardwalk

Java Suprema Carbon Fiber Shimano 105 Speed Road Racing Bike Bicycle Worldwide Shipping.

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I went out cycling yesterday on my Java Veloce road bike and it makes me realize how much I miss it. I usually went cycling when there's a long holiday weekend. So, I won't be too tired the next day at work. It was kinda a last-minute decision as I thought I would just rest at home.

Well, I'm glad, I decided to go. Although, it's just a quick ride. Usually, when I went out cycling, I'm in mission mode. Bringing along my Nikon camera to take photos of places I visited. I decided to just have a nice ride along the cycling path and then return home.

I've checked the weather forecast and it was supposed to be sunny early in the morning and heavy rainfall in the afternoon. It was already dark and started drizzling by the time I reached my target destination. I managed to get some pictures and videos of the places I stop by.

You can watch the video above or here on my youtube channel. That's part of the reason why I love cycling. I get to go out and do some exercise and at the same time visit places that I've never been to before. Also, I started to love photography after I bought my Nikon P950 and Zfc.

The Java bike that I bought is the only road bike that I have ever bought and owned. I usually prefer a mountain bike. I always thought road bikes are only for athletes and those loving to race. I decided to get one because I thought it'll be much faster riding one.

I found out that it's actually a fun bike to ride. Although I'm afraid to hurt my back with all that bending, it's not all that bad. I just needed to adjust the seat and the handlebar. But, the speed is what it's all about. I love the feeling of going fast on a straight road.

My budget Java Veloce road bike with its aluminum frame is pretty light and strong. I didn't have to use much power and it was a smooth ride even when the road aren't smooth with cracks and small twigs bumps. I have bad knees so, I don't really want to push too hard. 

I just make sure I have a good rhythm and a constant space. I'm not that young anymore too. I think the maximum speed I went was almost 30km/h. That's when it was a straight road with no other cyclists or joggers. I did try to catch a rider though but in the end, he went another route.

My co-worker used to urge me to buy an e-bike. There's been actually a lot of accidents involving them. They've also been in the news that causing fires because of the battery. I think it's cool but it beats the reason of me getting into cycling for health reasons. 

Yes, my knees feel the strain but I rather enjoy the hard work and the sweats. I like my Java veloce but I'm thinking of getting a Java suprema aero full carbon frame bike. It looks super cool and I'm assuming it's much faster. Right now, I'm into Java bikes. Did you know they collaborate with an Italian designer?

done! change new road bike R87 Titanium promend pedals #shorts

ROCKBROS Advanced 4 Bearings Mountain Bike Pedals Platform Bicycle Flat Alloy Pedals 9/16"

Hey guys,

Check it out!

My new PROMEND R87 titanium road bike pedals arrived and I immediately go to work fitting them to my Java Veloce road bike. Yes, I know, it's not the road bike pedal with cleats. As I've explained in my last blog post, I don't have road bike shoes and I mostly cycle to nature parks and beaches.

I like visiting those places and taking pictures. Walking around in a road bike shoe with cleats won't be practical. I don't even like wearing those road cycling shirts and shorts. Though, I'm thinking of trying it out maybe in the future. Check out some of the places I've been to in this video.



ROCKBROS Advanced 4 Bearings Mountain Bike Pedals Platform Bicycle Flat Alloy Pedals 9/16"

Well, I tested my new pedal on my Java Veloce road bike and it actually feels good. It's a little smaller than a mountain bike version. On my commute to work, there is a lot of stops so, wearing shoes with cleats would be troublesome.

I also don't ride on the roadside but on the pathway. So, it's a slow ride having to navigate through people hogging the path. Traffic in the morning is heavy and the road isn't smooth on the side. There are cracks everywhere. I'm afraid of slipping and falling where cars might run you over.

Once in a while, usually in the evening, the road and pathway are clear and I'm able to go fast. In fact, yesterday I was able to go a little bit faster. But, I was afraid of making a mistake as it's not a smooth pathway with many metal grating and little holes.

I have fallen from my road bike before that's why I'm careful when riding on bad or slippery surfaces. Unless it's an empty road or cycling lane that's clear of other cyclists or people. Then, it's a joy to ride and go for speed. So far, I'm happy with my new road bike pedals.

I'm also starting to learn and enjoy using the magene c406 bike computer. I didn't understand how to use it at first. On my last cycling trip I was fed up not being able to link it that I decided to use the Strava app on my iPhone 13 instead. 

It's only now I realized that I've made a mistake and using the wrong app. I thought, I already bound it to the magene app at first but because I haven't been using it, I forgot. I know now how to start recording, save it and upload it to the magene and Strava app.

I'm not a professional or even an amateur cyclist. More of a hobbyist. I don't do any kind of training except cycling to work and home. But, using a bike computer and using the Strava app to check my daily stats is actually kinda nifty and fun.

I didn't think I want to at first but now I want to know my heart rate data. That's why I decided to get the magene H64 heart rate monitors. It'll be interesting to know my heart rate reading, especially when going up the "little slope of hell". Cycling is way fun!

ROCKBROS Mountain Bike Pedals MTB Pedals Bicycle Pedals Lightweight Aluminum Alloy Platform Pedal with Removable Anti-Skid Nails for BMX/MTB Mountain Bike 9/16

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I finally got myself a new bike pedal, and bottle holder with a cool design and colors by the brand ROCKBROS. Also got an X-TIGER portable pump with a holder which is not that big and is light. It could be helpful when you're on the road in the middle of nowhere.

I also got some pedal bolts which doesn't fit my new bike pedal. Damn it. I thought they were all the same size. Okay, I was hoping they're the same size. Well, I might be able to use it on my road bike's new bike pedal. Yes, I also decided to get one for my road bike.



ROCKBROS Mountain Bike Pedals MTB Pedals Bicycle Pedals Lightweight Aluminum Alloy Platform Pedal with Removable Anti-Skid Nails for BMX/MTB Mountain Bike 9/16

I don't have a road bike shoe. So, I didn't buy a road bike pedal with cleats. I got myself a normal kind of bike pedal. When I cycle, I mostly use it to go to work and visit nature parks. Wearing road bike shoes with cleats won't be suitable for me.

I might get one in the future though, just to feel what it's like. My bike is more for my transport rather than for sports. I do use it for maintaining a certain level kind of fitness. I have bad knees and a slipped disc. Cycling is a low-impact exercise for me.

Yesterday, I used my Java Veloce road bike to work and I think, every time I ride it really feels good. Especially, when I hold the drop. Also, I always feel the need for speed and to go faster when I'm on it. Doesn't feel the same when I'm riding my mountain bike.

The way I ride though is more of the reckless mountain biker. That's why a mountain bike is more suitable for me. Especially, when sometimes, I need to cut into grass and dirt road. Yeah, I've thought of the hybrid gravel bike. But, I feel more secure going off-road with a handlebar instead of the drop bar.

Again, who knows I might decide to get one in the future. I like cycling around the country to beautiful quiet beaches and cooling green nature. Listening to birds and bugs singing from everywhere around you. I used to be lazy and just hang around my house when not working. Not anymore.

Feel free to visit my youtube channel and check out some of the videos I took of places I've cycled to. I plan to go to more places in the near future. There are parks and places that are closer to my workplace that I can go to after work. Like the Japanese Cemetery park.

Cycling is really fun and changing some of the bike parts yourself is fun too. I'm always on the lookout for cool design bike parts. It makes my bike feel a little special. Of course, getting the look from strangers is fun too. I like when I stop at traffic lights and people eye my bike.

They'll be wondering where I get it. Most of them, I got online and from China. The bikes I bought are made in China but the Java brand road bike is a collaboration with an Italian design company. I like the design and the quality of the bikes. My RALEIGH brand is from England but made in China version.

GoPro Hero 10 Vids and Pics Test Cycling on my Java Veloce Road Bike

Woodland Hills Camera GoPro HERO10 (Hero 10) Action (Black) with Deluxe Accessory Bundle – Includes: SanDisk Ultra 64GB MicroSD Memory Card, Carrying Case, Chest Mount Grip & Much More Black Kit

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I finally got a chance to go cycling and test out my new GoPro Hero 10. I'm glad I bought a multifunction bike computer and clamp mount. I used them to mount my GoPro for different views. Though, I forgot to turn the cam to face me.

Well, I can always try them out the next time I went cycling. It's actually kind of a little hassle as I had to screw and unscrew several times. But, I guess it's worth it. Nobody said, making a cycling video gonna be easy. Still, it was fun.



Woodland Hills Camera GoPro HERO10 (Hero 10) Action (Black) with Deluxe Accessory Bundle – Includes: SanDisk Ultra 64GB MicroSD Memory Card, Carrying Case, Chest Mount Grip & Much More Black Kit

I really like the GoPro 360 mount adapter. I'm able to turn the camera left or ride while riding. Pretty nifty. Like I said, I can even turn the camera around to face me so that viewers can see the rider. The clamp mount was good and useful too. 

I can clamp my camera anywhere on the bike frame for different viewing angles. But, I was a little lazy and only decide to clamp it on the mainframe. It's a little low and only see my drop bar and up. Guess, it's another interesting point of view.



HSU Aluminum 360 Degree Rotation Camera Mount, Tripod Adapter Compatible with GoPro Hero, DJI, Sony, Xiaomi Yi AKASO Campark, and Other Action Cameras

I also brought along my chest mount and selfie stick but decided not to use them. I don't like the idea of having to wear a chest mount all day long. I rarely use a selfie stick for anything. What's more, while cycling. But, I might do it some other day.

I wanted my nephew to come with me so that he can take a video of me riding the bike but he had to work. It'll be nice to have a whole view of the rider on the bike. Guess, I can always do it some other time too. There are still places I haven't gone to, yet.

Okay, I talk so much about the GoPro mount. How bout the camera itself? Well, this is my first ever GoPro and I'm really satisfied with it. I bought a CPL filter and I think it makes my pics and vids a little better. Yes, it does get hot. It is expected as there's no good cooling system for such small devices.

I don't intend to take long videos as in the end, you'll cut them later on. So, I just take certain videos that I think I'm going to use. That way, the camera will not get overheated. So far, I didn't have any problem with the camera. I have 3 batteries and I used 2 of them.

I like how smooth the video is. Although, at a certain point, it does shake when I go over the freaking too many road bumps. The pictures are not that bad either. Though, I still miss the zooming capabilities of my Nikon P950. Other than that, I'm a pretty satisfied customer.

Last but not least, I really love my Java Veloce road bike. It felt good riding on the road and I felt I could go far with it. Though, I should have worn my underwear cycling shorts with a gel pad. I still like cycling on my mountain bike but for long-distance, now I prefer a road bike.

Check out some of the photos I took with the GoPro Hero 10 below:

I think the pictures aren't bad at all. Pretty sharp. I thought I'd set it to Raw but it was saved as a jpeg. I might have done something that changed it and didn't realize it. Anyway, I'm the lazy type and if it's good enough to my eyes then it's good enough for others. Depends on your taste though.

If you're the type who spends a lot of time outdoor adventure and only have a GoPro, I think it'll be good enough.
