How much for the brakes bro?And what rotors are you using?Is it good?
*
m575 - rm250
rotor avid(model: dunno. the seller said taken out for elixir carbon set) - rm80.

if u planing getting new brake. I would suggest u go for deore 2010 aka m595. lighter and better performance. just add rm50.

the reason I go for m575. bcoz it's color and no stock laugh.gif

before this I use Maxxis Larson. Perform well on road. and good in Frim. I give 4.5 out of 5!. although it slippery compare to real XC tire, but it is still acceptable and it have very low resistance ..surely it increased distance I ride rclxms.gif . if I need to change my tire. I will get one with similar with Larson tread smile.gif

thinking of getting this frame...

oh wait, just checked the newer links. size 17" and 19"

17" maybe can still use. lol
carbon triangle can use for kiara singletrack and minor DH. just dont do 2 foot drops with it i guess.

nothing wrong with using it at frim. full carbon hardtails can frim, y cant half carbon?

IF youre gonna put a sticker on it, put something more exotic than santa cruz. Put Cinelli logo. Barulah ppl will say "wah wah Cinelli got mtb now?? that guy so cool." Stay away from the roadies. They'll take it personally.

but that guy wear chepo helmet and can't afford to have pair of glove sweat.gif . haha im surely massing with my original plan sweat.gif

i would just keep it as it is, put clear coat. when got money do custom paintjob. brows.gif hanger? derailleur hanger? the frame doesnt come with it ah?
btw, my frame is cheap only. and every1 that sees it thinks its just a tfs. so they dont think its a good frame tongue.gif makes me look like a better rider too laugh.gif
*
thinking of the same thing.. do the custom paintjob or airbrush... maybe do like tattoo style all over the frame.

hehe.. i try improving my stamina. after upgrading(weight increase), ride in rovers trail also already pancit... sweat.gif .

currently on training. 2km per day sweat.gif tongue.gif

anyway i enjoy to cycle with her. see her growing passion on bicycle and bicycle part too. she damn jealous when i got my brake and she steal it, she want me to install on her bicycle rclxub.gif laugh.gif .


for now i just stick with raw color of the frame..


reading discussion on d internet regarding carbon mtb frame. quite scare me ler...

most of people dont have confident in carbon mtb frame. although few who used it, said it dont have problem.

few owner said.. u can ride it hard but can't abuse it. what level of riding called abuse? hmm.gif . riding fast DH from steroid hill and hit bump also call abuse ?

some said.. rear carbon triangle sometime not so stiff like steal frame..so it also sometime function like suspension. thumbup.gif


Added on December 10, 2009, 9:35 amepx brand also i never heard off. scare the quality of the frame.

this frame is clear stock from ep bla bla sdn. bhd. company base in shah alam. this company manufacture car accessories ... sleep.gif"
