How heavy is your bike?

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

If you can feel your bike is heavy without lifting it that mean its time to change a better bike.
where is this 500m dirt trail?
maybe you can ride at 8am sunday and follow other rider.
there is trail that exit at hospital sungai buloh.
Along the way got single track downhill too

WHAT? shouldnt you get the cheapest if the component is similar??
make you feel good wont make you fast....

Went to Karnival MtB at putra jaya yesterday.
Approx 200++ rider, cover 2 laps total 48km, around putrajaya off road, inclusive of PCP.

Oh man, really din go down well to me n my bud. Exhausted after 18km n cramp started to set in. At the end finish at 1230 only one loop, while most other finished 2 loops before 12. Pai seh man.

I thought there could be a lot of santai rider....
Real relieve to made it back to the starting point. They we kind n even gave a finisher medal.

Good experience , and realize I really need to up my fitness

lol ok

its either scott or giant... both are 10speed, similar equipped and better than specialized.
it is really down to the look and feel of the bike if you like..
i suggest go with the cheaper one...save and upgrade later. once the hobby poison run deep thats when u are more willing to spend more.

Agreed! Warning on the Suntour fork though... sibeh keras

I see Giant as more value

Hi guys, where can I find Giant bike shop in PJ area, in the mids of looking for a MTB, am a road bike cyclist all this while. Still new in MTB scene.

non in PJ as i known.
the only giant bike boutique is in wangsa maju ...google JBS or look at cypreza signature for bike shop map location.
samy's bike shop in batu caves carries some giants too

where to buy cheap 29er MTB here in KL?

My stock Giant revel is 15kg, feels kinda heavy for me (i am a small build guy).

i bought mine in wangsa maju. It's a Giant retail boutique. Usually they will give around 10% discount.

Try Giant Revel 29er, entry level and looks cool

@geogy_gan - how much is the revel? coz i prefer to build my bike but it's hard to shop cheap 29er frame here in KL.

i got mine RM2K (bike only). The stock accessories OKlah for that price. I will just trash this bike and replace what is necessary. Not going to spend 5k - 10k new bike to trash.. sakit hati!.. haha


Some shop giving free helmet. u need to ask around.

Define cheap
