wah... so expensive eh... Well, i'm really a begineer, so i dont really want to spend too much before upgrading to the really good one. I was aiming something at RM200, and yeap, i'm thinking to get the XCR from taobao, which will cost me around RM200 with shipping included.

Are you saying at certain price range eg Rm1000 range or Rm2000 range, all the bike are more or less the same. 

I strongly disagree as I believe there are some bikes that are better build or equiped even at the same price range.  Some rides better etc.  To simply say choose the color you like sound more like an insult to the budget rider.

In fact... we are insulting the budget rider. whistling.gif

anyone can advise me

which one to choose scott 940 or exitway sub gear 29er

and size s, m  or L

I am 185 tall.

Or any suggestion for budget around 1500

This two still a bit above my budget
*
Exitway is for Bangla and Indon ride to work. No matter what they say.
You only have 1 choice. That is Scott.
Size wise... theoretically, size L. But better go check with Botak and test it yourself.

the bike should be light as possible so it is responsive to the max, all pumps, water bottles and tubes should go in a riding pack so they do not get in the way. only essentials should be on the frame, good and bright lights (a must), cyclocomp (optional, mud? what mud?), mudguards (optional), bottle cage (no need, do you really want to drink from a bottle that got hit by rat shit?) just my 2 sen. since it is a night your fluid need will be a lot less than a hot day ride, one bottle in the bag should be enough.

Heavier bikes are more responsive la...

Anyway... wan easier, get CO2 catridge lo. And dump it into the bag instead. a

As a rider who rides a relatively heavy bike, well, i can say that once the bike starts rolling, we won't feel that much weight. Responsiveness and flickability IMHO is determined by the geometry and fit. For example a slack geometry with wide bars is more responsive than the same frame with shorter bars. A less slack angled bike will feel less flicky compared to a slacker bike. Wheelbase, head angle and center of gravity dictates how responsive it is.

Another example is that, slacker bikes are more responsive at speed compared to less slack bikes and at slower speeds, a less slack bike is more responsive when slower.
*
Of course...
These all play big in your bike setup...

Anyway...

Hi Guys,

I am total noob in MTB and I need some opinion. This bike worth to buy? I had contact the seller.

The gear is Shimano Acera.. seller send me some photo
http://www.mudah.my/Bicycle+3X9+Speed-22245257.htm
*
This is page one story. If you like the color, go ahead.

Acera is 21 speed or something.
Component wise, it is as it is to the price. So... nothing to shout.
If price is cheap... and u want to try the sport... buy
Throw it away or sell it even cheaper when u like the sport and plan to get a new one.
There is nothing worth keeping on the bike. There is nothing worth changing except change the bike.

I not sure will like this hobby or not that why not i don't want buy a expensive one.. My director wish to sell me his full sus for cheap price(not cheap for me) that why I thinking get around 1k to try.. This one 9 gear 27 speed shinamo, stroker hydraulic brake, cla pro fork(i think so) for 1k.. Dunnoe what is volcano brand, i saw all ppl post giant in here
*
This bike probably worth RM2k when it was first bought.
Check for signs of accident/scratches, ride around, shift some gears from top to bottom bottom to top...
See... if everything ok... why not as a starter.


QUOTE(C.P.U @ Jul 3 2013, 04:29 PM)
I see.. Thank guys.. My boss wanted to sell me his full sus giant with 10 shinamo gear.. he brought around 10k... He wan sell me 3k.. I still consider but 3k is big amount for me to start a hobby
*
It can be a RM50k mountain bike and selling you 3k now.
All depending on year.
Any bike from design yr 2008 and before are actually not worth checking on unless it is rigid. Still got chance.
Fullsus... better get 2009 models onwards as this is the time where new designs came in with bobbing problem being resolved.

Easiest way, get a picture and let us know whether is worth or not.
Worst case scenario, u paid RM3k for taman ride, turn out the bike is a downhill bike.
