QUOTE(Cyphereza @ Nov 22 2011, 12:15 PM) What we see: Pedal slipped, seat post too high, frame too small. Hows the frame too small effect jumps..just wanna know aje..not that Ill be doing jumps anytime soon....Actually: T-bolt is not for downhill Does the bike's travel also play part? I mean if the jump is too crazy it ll probably bottom out the suspensions and not fully absorb the impact...leading the dude to slip and pop out of the cockpit...(i think the fellas cock also kena the impact) By the way..if you look at the video...towards the end ...in true MTB spirit ...his friends were laughing at him hahah Added on November 22, 2011, 2:13 pm QUOTE(paparock @ Nov 22 2011, 02:01 PM) hi bros n sifus, If you care about warranties ...then you ll need to check if your HT frame can take 120mm...if not anything happen to it you ll wont be able to claim...did any1 here familiar with bike geometry? I'm not very familiar with frame geometries, so I just attached pictures for reference. (mine is size M) [attachmentid=2548034] I'd just like to ask if I could install a 120mm (or up to 140mm) travel fork on my bike. would it effect my handling and cause crack to my frame? i was thinking on getting either REBA RL or RECON GOLD RL. is it a huge different in performance wise between solo and dual air? Having said that...I did that (quite sure its not covered) but it really benefit me going through some of the nasty trail sections What frame are u using?

QUOTE(snapshots @ Nov 22 2011, 07:07 PM) i think 2.5-3.5K can get very nice bikes from giant/specialized/merida/scott. dont forget you need to set aside at least 400 for helmet,tubes,gloves,pump,hydration. Boardman bikes at Hee Heong also not bad...looking at the finishing is quite nice ...they also got Saracens ...giant- sen aik scott - bikepro specialized - concept store merida- ss2 merida / heehong cycles worth going to kedai basikal samy at batu caves to take a look as well. Xandmans 4.3K for a FS ...not bad man..definately a good price ... |

QUOTE(chamelion @ Nov 22 2011, 08:14 PM) But the Saracen Zen and Ariel are getting good reviews lately...maybe the mags are biased towards UK bikes ...but dont take my word for it ...At the end of the day...buy something that make you enjoy each ride ...be it a Tbolt or a Yeti To enjoy you ll need to have good basics I guess ....no point buying a high end bike if you re gonna push it down the hill ... |

Well when you develop your capabilities of course you ll need better bikes...you use a bangla bike and take massive drop is a recipe for disaster ....even if u r the 2nd Lance Armstrong + Aaron Gwin.... but no marney.... oso no use....rite? All am saying to newbies(like me) dont be disheartened if you cant afford expensip bikes ...still can ride Like dat that day someone mentioned during Burung Hantu...a guy using a HT went down a steep DH...whereelse others pushed down...not bad wat |
