QUOTE(chyu89 @ Jan 2 2012, 10:00 AM) Get new bike better. and you need extra 300-400 for bag and helmet as well. Bag, helmet, pump, tools, gloves, degreaser, chain lube, grease, upgrade fork, upgrade brakes, upgrade groupset, upgrade wheelset, upgrade upgrade upgrade...checkout those recommended brands . I think HengMas better check you bank account again  |

QUOTE(HengMas @ Jan 2 2012, 12:11 PM) Giant XTC or ATX ATX 2k+- can get secondhand. XTC i think 2k quite hard as the frame only also around 700-1k.how much market price ? RM2000 can get ka ? If you on budget go search around BBS more, there are some very good deals if you are lucky.  Though you need to have basic knowledge to check out the bike before buying. |

Cancel la my plan to get it like that  QUOTE(kimyee73 @ Jan 3 2012, 03:25 PM) Hello, newbie on bike here. Plan to buy a bike around rm1k. Was looking at Exitway but saw a brand called RMB. It match Exitway in term of price and parts like Shimano Acera for RD etc except it has better fork, SRS XCM vs XCT. Only thing is I never heard of RMB and google turned out evanda-rmb.com that do not have much info. Help, any idea comparing it to Exitway? RMB is OEM from taiwan i think. Better stick with exitway. |

Good for you. A decent bike for 1.5k.
The parts are okay but i think you should upgrade your fork to at least an epicon in the future for a better ride |

QUOTE(dickybird @ Jan 3 2012, 11:59 PM) haha, epicon? didnt you read the part about his car being a merc, straight sumbat a RS sid leh bah! ut before you do that, better buy a new bike carrier if not scratch your merc, paints job will be more than Dato' Xand punya DH rig. hehe First thing i saw in that sentence was the MERC nice bike, welcome to the club. Of course i notice, thats why i said at least an epicon. sid gonna cost as much as the bike itself  Bike carrier decent one 200 can get i think. |

QUOTE(Mike3300 @ Jan 4 2012, 04:42 PM) 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? Not everyone want to have a position on a road bike/racer. It is not relaxing. MTB/hybrid have a more upright position that allows a more leisure ride on the road.QUOTE(Cyphereza @ Jan 4 2012, 05:03 PM) I think you're referring to Singaporeans? If you found those in Malaysia, it is because they're Singaporeans. I ride a AM bike on the road with 2.5 tyres and no im not singaporean. So your arguement is invalid  |

QUOTE(majorsinbad @ Jan 4 2012, 06:04 PM) Do bicycles in MY have demo days? ie like golf equipment whenever they launch new stuffs ? I dont think so right? knowing us Malaysians we ll probably try to sapu the rig halfway through the trail ...hahahah...From a consumer pov I just dont get it...by right the more expansive the stuff...the more you ll need to test it first..ie: Cars, Golf clubs, etc....cause you ll be making a significant amount of investment on it...and testing on the road is not good enough right? But such is our plight here...because we tend to just splurge on what we impulsively want...shops are able to sell it without allowing actual demo...on the flipside...its not helped by consumer who will abuse it if the facility is there....heheh Then there is also the mentality of malaysian Nowaways bike shops dont even let you test on the road. Too many con/stolen cases. |

QUOTE(Cyphereza @ Jan 4 2012, 10:03 PM) If you buy tools, don't forget to buy grease too. Thing is the bb tool is expensive and not all bb use same tool. If i change different bb then have to change too again. But then again if send to shop for full service also rm50 each time QUOTE(chyu89 @ Jan 4 2012, 10:24 PM) i keep spray wd40 then pour engine oil, gear oil remaining from service car to bb, then no sound. then good good. Not sure if trolling or...QUOTE(butthead @ Jan 4 2012, 10:26 PM) just send to shop and use your own grease instead of letting them use those horrible lithium grease.. Why is lithium grease bad? Because its too tacky?i'd like to try rock n roll grease...but nowhere near malaysia it can be found...ebay is the best bet. |
