Dont worry, 18 years old, I assume next year you can apply ptptn

Whether student or oldman... u will still get the same answer.

Read page 1.
After read, you will know, we have no answer for you.

bro, dun be sarcastic if want to ask genuine question. 1k meant 1k to everyone here. its no different if its ur 1k or my 1k.

the 1st page guide hold a lot of information for mountain biking.
the guide clearly advise on the intended use of a mountain bike. if you are not serious bout going offroad riding, buy any bike that you like about the look and color your budget allow
if you are serious into trying offroad riding, anything around 2k or more for a proper mountain bike on account of safety and reliability

if you ask weather if the XDS limited edition worth the 1k, people here wont know unless u state clearly what your intend use and what is the specification of the bike.
people here are riders not bicycle seller who know every single brand any tom ask here ma. common sense !!

If you can fork out a little bit more, maybe you can go for Merida? At least it's a bit better than XDS IMHO...

Wah... wife no let u touch last night ah? So Monday one...

just try to help but i very straight forward one ... easier to understand
i also learn from 1st page and buy my bike

Another simple test to know if the bike's of any good at all. Whateva the brand you're looking at, ask what size is available and geometry listing. S,M or L, even XL. If they say no size available or only S size, that will tell you something bout that brand itself...

Great bikes come with great geometries...

1k to me and 1k to timothy different story.

btw you don't choose a good bike but a good bike chooses you.

Why different? U give me see... I show u how to spend it "wisely"

sounds familiar... Which superhero says that?

So fast kick start the burung hantu training kah?

What time? Kiara nite ride i like!

Changing Tyre Size

Guys ...wanna ask...whats the effect when you change from a 1.95 tyre to a 2.3 tyre? Is it gonna make it heavier and harder to climb? I am assuming the added width adds more traction ..right?

yes!
but u can train ur legs to be stronger!


why the jump from 1.95 to 2.3?

Well someone wants to sell the tyres to me for cheap...Noby Nicks and Racing Ron but the size is 2.3 ..

Hmm... Sound like someone I know... Hmm...

Like someone I know oso...

*I oledi sold my set ok

Read page 1.
Ha! Ha! Ha!



Buy what u need.
It is ok to spend RM100 for RM50 goods if you need.
But you are blardy c2p to spend RM50 for RM100 goods that you don't need.
