Whether they are noob in MTB or pro in MTB...

What we know is, they already old enough not to ask stupid question and assume we owe them our lives.

Anthony came in... proclaimer came in...
they are still here trolling. They got the palm off from us as well.

Heck... if we need to love everyone... we will be the best of best friends in the world.

u want ride AM or DH?

I ride both? LOL, i cant seem to decide. The thing is that i dont like the glory colour and looks abit weird to me. Are these bike both around the same value judging from the specs?

QUOTE(snapshots @ Jan 29 2012, 11:27 PM)
Why a five inch? If your answer isn't concrete then your are looking at the wrong travel....muahahaha

If u ask me...
Skip the offer.

With the nomad u can enjoy going DH albeit a bit slow...
But with the Glory...i dun think u can enjoy riding uphill....

been there, done that, hate it.

ive used an XC, Trail/AM, DH, FR...
trust me...
A trail/AM is the best way to enjoy your weekend ride...
unless u r joining the DH fellas....then u have no choice la...

but to tell u frankly...
Glory is very hard to sell off...well not just glory...DH stuff in general...
if u plan to change bike in the future...skip the Glory...
Hmm, been thinking bout the uphill part also rclxub.gif Stress. Wanting to try full DH rig to see how fast i can push down hill biggrin.gif

But i dont like the glory shape and silver colour icon_question.gif

Resell value is what i consider too.

Better to get new XTC bike like the rest here recommends.
I wonder if the FSA Carbon handle bar is original or not  whistling.gif

Go and meet the seller. Try ketuk the handlerbar with hammer see shatters or not. Or take something sharp and poke it, see can see the carbon weave or not tongue.gif

Guys, recently just started this hobbies. Getting more addicted now. And thinking to setup a MTB shop. Any idea how to start this business? Need advice. Thx
*
1) deep enough pocket
2) strategic location
3) basic knowledge in bikes
4) give lyn member 50% discounts

With these 4, sure can open a shop with many supporters.

Doing business is always risk just thinking nowsday more & more ppl started this hobbies shd be a good try. Been visit few store at my area. Said ave store income enu cover rental and expenses plus my salary too. Tired working office. Since both working hr above same why not work on my own.

Info wise, looking at whr they get those supply example bike accesories/import brand bike and etc.
*
Good for you if you think that way. like chamelion said, to carry a major brand in your shop will be an issue, unless you rojak all the brands together. Most important is how are you going to get the bikes and parts cheaper than other established bike shops.
