Hi Bro timothy...
Sorry why u said it's pure con job for 1st one ? pls share with me so me and many of members here will learn a lesson from u.

Even you said just get the Marin..i sense you are not highly recommended for this one even. am i got it right bro timothy ? I not paid to them yet. If there is better option pls give me advice and I really appreciate the sharing to ensure i get it right for my hard-saving RM2K for my 1st MTB in new year 2012.

Thank you very much bro timothy.  notworthy.gif

Happy New Year to you & all the members here !

The Marin seems to be good value. If it is around RM2k. The #1, Vortex? Expensive for a second hand bike. #3, you sure you want full sus for first bike?
Or... try look for Giant bikes. Can sell back if you want to upgrade later.

guys, what's the length of the spokes for DH rims of 29mm? as fr Dt swiss spokes they have range frm 252 to 266, so how am i to determine the length of the spokes? thx in advance

P/s: kindly provide the spoke's length for XC rims as well, Thanks.
*
Kindly provide hub flange diameter, flange distance and number of holes (spokes). And, kindly, provide rim's ERD too.
After that, kindly insert the values that you have kindly found in this kind calculator. http://www.dtswiss.com/SpokesCalc/Calculator.aspx
If you do not know what is hub flange, etc. Kindly visit http://www.sheldonbrown.com and find the term under glossary. wink.gif

Yup. Complicated. Even for us. Just leave it to the LBS. They'll take care of the length, etc.

Why is that for some people, they buy nice all-mountain hardtail with decent components but with road bike tires and ride on the road like a road bike? Anyone?

I think you're referring to Singaporeans? If you found those in Malaysia, it is because they're Singaporeans. laugh.gif

then the question comes, what's the difference between a flatbar and a MTB hybrid...

other than drop bars being dropped for flat ones, and dual pivot calipers instead of disc and the non existence of a suspension fork in exchange for a 700c wheels...

and the biggest factor of all when comes a steep steep hill... the granny ring and the big cog at the back...
thought freeriding means taking someone else's bike for a ride without paying money...

you return it of course or it will become hotwheeling...
lets not stereotype singaporeans here K, they do have much fancier bike shops than we do...

if your theory is right... why do i get rejected for asking to test drive the 458 italia at naza mall... is that not expensive enough?

they will have demo when the bicycle industry is a 10 billion dollar biznes... meaning it ain't gonna happen...

if not there will be a "malaybike" (for the lack of names) expo show... i heard one is happening this year... just hope it is not a 10000 square feet showcase of lerun bikes or i will go kill myself...

realistically, there is just no reasons to run demos... just put on some fantastic videos of the demo'ed model of MTB stunt jumping and some famous pros doing crazy tricks and some videos of for roadies some grand tour champion pecuting up some steep hills and we are sold...

doesn't this make you want to buy a s-works tarmac sl3?
Specialized - Alberto Contador Commercial

not to say we are gullible.. but we are just that easily manipulated  blush.gif ...or in other words, lack of self control...
anyways... it is just the chinaman, scratch that ... malaysian way of doing business... what if you take it out for a ride and come back to just walk out and go to another shop to buy a simillar model at cheaper price... you sked of them they sked of you...

unless you put down your IC and RM5k on the table as deposit... i doubt they'd mount some pedals and et you ride their most expensive carbon XC rig out of their doors... just what i think...

i have never ever ever ever x99 ridden any bike before i buy them... never got the chance no matter how sincere my face and wallet look towards buying it... by the time i get to ride it... regret is already not an option...

heck, and with this (not that it works here with those hefty shipping charges)

http://www.bikerumor.com/2011/12/30/specia...rice-check-app/

you'll never ever going to see the chance of test riding even a children's bike...

2 words bro... "domestic violence"

didn't you hear what the DJ on the radio said... respect your women...

even though she is virtual... and most probably can and will rip your nuts off if you don't kill her..

what happen to the mosquito infested RRIM nowadays.. can that place still be ridden?

mind me ... i no longer contain much liking or enthusiasm for bone shaking rides... but that is where we use to ride way back.. from tropicana golf club tunnel to the terminal 1 roundabout then along the road to the entrance of RRIM then from there it s a race with the mosquitoes...
