Anyway, thanks for the heads up. Baru ingat nak gi sana. They told me they're closed today when I was there last week, coz they all went Kayuh Lasak during the weekends.

Getting Started Junior Member 60 posts Joined: Jul 2006	I don't get it. Which part of AMP's geo is more dialed than P series? Both the HTA is round the same (depending on fork length). STA is neglige able since on a DJ, no one sits. Wheelbases is same too. The place where AMP losses out is on the CS length. P series is 10mm shorter! The perks on AMP would be the ISCG5 tabs. But then on a DJ... Is that even needed?

And like Chamelion said, Yeti and Santa Cruz sizings are a bit different than Giant, Spez, etc. Check the frame condition first before buying You sure you want 5.75 inch instead of 6.3 inch travel?

Getting Started Junior Member 60 posts Joined: Jul 2006	Too much travel is just good. U just need to rider faster and harder to utilize the remaining travel. Too little travel = go harder spring. And became a slope-style rider in whistler

Getting Started Junior Member 60 posts Joined: Jul 2006	Assuming 120mm/160mm = 75% of travel used. The bottom out rbber feature takes 25% of the total travel?! Added on December 8, 2011, 3:53 pmOr you're talking about the IFP? This post has been edited by kaizer: Dec 8 2011, 03:53 PM

Getting Started Junior Member 60 posts Joined: Jul 2006	QUOTE(chyu89 @ Dec 8 2011, 11:02 PM) Anyone uses 29 wheels and fork at front , then 26 frame? the geo gonna be super slack Kekeke... Using 29er fork, but oni 26" wheels jek QUOTE(Proclaimer @ Dec 8 2011, 11:56 PM) Technically speaking its the real deal. One full rotation of the crank for 26" is slower than a bike on 29". Put it simple 7th gear on a 29er feels like 5th gear on a 26" bike, lighter to pedal but same speed. But i wonder why it is not catching up Gain ratio is different, but not that much different la. The difference is is aroung 2 tooth. That's why Shimano's 29er 9spd cassette is 12T~36T instead of the normal 11T~34T

Getting Started Junior Member 60 posts Joined: Jul 2006	Long wheelbase = Stable at speed but not that flickable. Also turning radius will be larger. Not suitable for tight trails. Longer spokes vs Shorter spokes = Same sifu build the wheels with the same quality spoke, shorter spokes will flex less for hardcore usage. Hence flexier wheels. Larger wheels = Longer chainstay. Comfort riding, but again, not that flickable. Just my two cents on why 29er is still not readily adaptable for FR/DH. But in the AM category, it's gaining ground nowadays.
