wokay. damn lazy to post. need to package nicely to protect the rims, but then become heavy, postage costs more. hmmm.......

if wipeout x syiok they wouldnt do a show called wipeout.

nothing wrong with merida. dealer network for merida in UK and US not good or non existent, thats y you dont read about it in magazines, since the magazines are all from US and UK. i dont care about brands anyways, try to go for value for money. for xc HT i would go for scott or merida, value for money full sus giant anthem or trance, should be able to enjoy 80% of the trails in malaysia already.

damn. was at telawi just now. saw some1 riding a full sus bike in red or orange tight jersey and tight pants. pretty sure its a rocky mountain. around 7pm. lol. pretty sure i know who it is also.

very cheap

5mil cannot buy both? i thought each around 2mil only. or at least one of them is recond


5mil i would get aventador or mucielago. v12>v8

for rider visibility very good, ut the projection sucks, cant see 5 feet in front, need front lights if you wanna ride above 10km/h

open bike tour service, bring in foreign tourists and we guide them through our trails, maybe do epic rides (cameron, KK multiple day rides), provide everything from accommodation to bicyle packing and transport, even some sightseeing. that way we can actually do riding, not just selling products.

open a bike tour and lodge on some mountain with nice trails

i no stamina liao, sure cannot guide. go kiara always endo how to guide people? actually herbert from KSH wanted to do that, open shop/bike touring company in KK at his hometown, he do tours. pretty sure his physical condition is better than most of us. and his sales skills quite good

do video filming service for bike race/jamboree for organizers or for ppl to show off DH skills, can sell to local tv or as dvd. or to promote biking tourists to malaysia.

or open cnc machining company, do precision components like pedals, stems, handlebars, seatpost, hubs, headset, seat clamps, QR, anodizing, and also machining and fabrication for non bike related stuff. like hope and thompson, but made in malaysia and (hopefully) cheaper. haha

portland seems like a nice place to live. especially with the nude bike ride.

just run tubeless lor. save more in the long run compared to changing tubes so often.


or change wheelset. i think some1 selling nice pair of rims. hehe

get one each. front magura, back the one.

full gloves also depends. some better ventilation than others. usually more protection=less ventilation. DH gloves confirm hot, but some full fingered gloves for xc or AM quite ok.

not ibis tranny ah?


edited: oh, lapierre rapt. looks like tranny though, same kaler some more

just went to meng thai. dt x1600 rm1.4k only. 1.6kg, ratchet hub. seems cheaper than i thought.

but havent been keeping up with prices for the past 2 years


sold alpine liao, maybe buy full wheelset easier

uhhhh studs?

hubs only got centre lock or six bolt, can fit any size disc brakes. different size rotor need to change adaptor only for the brake caliper at the caliper mount.
