Not frame twitchy. I mean the handling is twitchy.
frame cannot be twitchy la... it is always the entire bike... wheel to wheel ma...

frame itself can twitch without affecting the wheels is going to be god damn weird...i'll consider chucking the bike away...

unless u can persuade GH to include BGFit for free!
u must be damn persuasive to get that...or you're a pretty girl which they want to be around for longer...

around how much i can get a good mountain bike?

expect no less than 4 figures... RM1.5k would be safe... you can ask the MTB thread.. i am sure they have lots of recommendation...

no. just don't crank gazillion watts just to avoid the rain, if the road is already wet

haiyah... don't ride lar...

you can't prevent a little chicken from also rushing home popping across the road without looking left and right causing you to pull the brake lever all the way to the bar drops mar... you still end up face planting yourself...

don't ride also less change to kena rain and fall sick...

How come this bike looks so sweet even without a deep cabon wheels?

shallow wheels has always been nice looking...just takes you the right chance to see one that catches your eyes... 202 height of 38mm is my personal limit... would never like anything beyond that...

QUOTE(miaopurr @ Feb 21 2013, 05:13 PM)
i think i told u guys before, here on this forum. i got mine done for rm350 by this fella in KL. 3 hrs session at home.

i think he meant the actual bg fit session in GH...

QUOTE(miaopurr @ Feb 21 2013, 05:14 PM)
coz it's an exotic bike. exotic bikes with exotic price tags better look sweet. or else....

or else?

everything is wrong...

things is never any righter since the day we were born and 2 wrongs definitely never make a right...

didn't eat food you were given, wrong...
touched what you were not supposed to touch, wrong...
could not start speaking from the age of 0.25, wrong...
study not hard enough, wrong...
homework no do, wrong...
SPM no 9A's, wrong
college studied wrong subject, wrong
buy bicycle, wrong...
buy bike, wrong...
buy car, wrong...
work not hard enough, wrong
courted a GF, wrong...
proposed to her, wrong (biggest mistake of your life, hers too for accepting the proposal)
getting married, wrong can never be better defined
buy house, wrong for 35 years of your life
regret (let's you go through the sad memories of your wrong doings), the last thing that happens when nothing more could ever go wrong

then the death angel comes...

and this is how you pass the 60 odd years of your EMI, RFI, radiation induced life...by doing all the wrong things to realize all the rights things you never did...

i bet even our birth was the wrongest thing ever happened to our parents....

rzr 46?

5k is really neither here nor there...

6k to 7k would be safer or you can take a look at mavics

i don't think you can fnd rzr here and it would be too pricey...

even if dv46, i think it is way more than rm5k

american classic, those expensive models should be hard to find here

I asked from ksh,reynolds 46 only around 4.5k...u can search its website..
*
i won't say that it is not possible... maybe...

because i remember they had another set for RM2.6k but i don't recall what model...

but i remember the US MSRP to be on the high side of RM5k after conversion...maybe it works differently for them...better ask them to show you which one... or you show us...

The website only show reynolds 46...on the competitive categ...is it worth to get this wheels as i m not really familiar with the wheels.
*
it's not the most mainstream of wheels in the market... but, then again your budget is under that of those mainstream wheels...

it is quite light for that height and price range... so, it does make it an interesting wheel... and it has evolved from the the Deep V models of aero rims into this new one which should be more aero efficient...

i would only caution one thing, other than epic failures which can't be avoided... you might want to check if the reynolds recommended pad is available for sale... reynolds highly recommend their own cryo blue pad for good braking performance both in dry and wet...of course, other pads like zipp's cork pads (which is generally the benchmark) are available but you might have to find out if anyone has good results from using it...
