Front Derailleur: SRAM X9 (2x10)
Rear Derailleur: SRAM X9

rm2550 (XDS 26556)
Fork: SUNTOUR RAIDON AIR 100mm
shimano SLX dyna-system30spd(shifter,fd,rd,crank set)

which one value for money???

based on your 2 options. Go for Exitway.
People will complain about these 2 brands coz we are all jantan. All lotsa ego and wanna show off.
But Exitway and XDS have been here for quite sometime. Most probably their frames ALSO made by Giant or Merida.
I believe these frames are equivalent to Fuji, Merida, Giant, Kona, Raleigh and many more...
It is the brand that differenciate them.

So, the choice is very much up to you. If you want a bike with good component, you can always go for these 2. I'd choose XDS I guess. (coz name not so obvious)
If you don't mind being "looked" at using a lower end range bike... by all means go ahead. These bikes should be more than good enough for you to go through all jamborees, ride around taman, kiara, FRIM and everywhere else.

kona and spez is 100000000x better than exitway...

Pls la. Just because your bike is meant for display purpose, doesn't mean everyone need a house deco too.

It doesnt matter.

I'd prefer 9 speed as well if the teeth are same.

So to sum it up, a good and reliable groupset does make a lower end bike a good-to-go bike. Since everyone change their frames like changing clothes these days.

I noticed that I sweat alot during riding, does it due to my outfit? I usually warm up for 10-15 minutes of normal riding and then carry full-speed forward, freeriding baby~! Any ideas?


Added on October 22, 2011, 1:06 amtimothyy, so Saint shifters on Bolt is still consider as low-end. Got it. rolleyes.gif

It is not consider low-end. In fact... T Bolt is never low end. Carbon fibre, full suspension...
Disc brake...
But Saint on T Bolt is just plain useless....

wow.... just tried kiara this morning and i would say, either get a shorter handle bar or cut mine shorter.... quite difficult to cycle its trails though.... really no skills for it i suppose... quite a no. of pushes i encounter but honestly, its single tracks are awesome.... just need to practice more on weekdays, weekends too many ppl and i am like getting in their way.... embarassing ler..... not for beginners? also afraid i might get lost in there if i go on weekdays where not many ppl ard. sigh.... really good but too lousy for it....

You know TTDI? It is there.

Can your bike handle the track there?

Unfortunately, we only remembered your girlfriend but not your bike.
So... too bad. Don't even know you got a bike. tongue.gif
