Hi guys, was wondering if I should upgrade the components on my low-end Hardtail? Only ride for around 2months.

Buy la.. 

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. Been bz with work lately.

I am planing a newbie casual ride tomorrow (Friday) @ 7.30am in FIRM. I have never been there, so its kinda "bang wall"

Anyone wanna join me?

The tarmac track was good but my bike kinda heavy. Try searching for dirt trail but only found 1 about 500m. Anyone going kiara this sunday?

if you have the money, buy the most expensive option,  at least it will make you feel good. Else how do you compare toyota vs honda vs nissan?

Same price range bike comes with same price range quality parts

where to buy cheap 29er MTB here in KL?

if u wan... we start from kiara park bike wash area over at ttdi there. every sat 8pm.
make sure u well equipped

new rate for fox service is rm400 per fork if i not wrong.

Need advise from sifus here. I got my 29 comes with stock suntour xcr rl 100mm coil fork. I'm quite noob with biking. Got a friend offering 2nd hand rst first 29 air fork for rm500. Read review apparently quite a good cheap fork. I'm wondering how is that compared to my suntour. Is it a good change or I'm just changing the same grade stuff?

His rst first comes from khs Tempe 29 btw. It's still quite new.

Where can I buy top range MTB clip on cycling shoe? KSH Merida @Tmn Bahagia and KSH @ TTDI don't carry SiDi. They only have Northwave and another brand which I forgot.

I have yet to visit Specialized @ Kota Damansara. I bought my previous SiDi from Bikepro but seriously I find their service lacking.

I think there's another MTB near the Curve there too. Any recommendation is appreciated!

fizik saddles, going to Samy's today for a look and drool at some saddles 

Never dealt with any of them vendors from Taobao before - cannot read mandarin. Haven't purchased anything from them yet as a mate of mine who usually buys from them is not around recently heh

epicon should be good enough for beginner... ride more and learn then in future time u will know what fork suit u...

You just need to appoint a good forwarder to help you bring the things from taobao...
Seller in taobao can be seen there... depends on how many diamonds, crown, or gold crown they get.

Which shop in Klang valley sells X-Fusion Velvet and/or Marzocchi 2013 Corsa forks? Looking for a 26" 100mm travel XC to replace my aging Epicon. Looking for something other than Fox/RS/Manitou/Suntour/Spinner. Saw some Marzocchi's at Rodalink but are the older models.

Just serviced my 2009 Epicon fork recently. Bushings is a little worn down and had some play. It scratched the air spring lower stanchion a little but since the fork does not have an oil bath (uses grease instead) nothing to worry about. Some amount of chatter on rough terrain. No biggie but think time to change soon. Have gone through many hours of fun ride with it and love it to bits. Very easy to service and low maintenance. Quite a good fork other than mine lacks low speed damping and suffers from brake dives. Love the remote lockout for climbs. The newer models seems better and much improved over the older models but want to try something else.

RRI is horrible... mosquito infested... crazy place.
i prefer elmina nervy RRI ... totally no mosquito.. very flowy fire road...great for xc rides
