both are pretty much on the same grade fork. no point waste those money.
you still new to it... ride more la and save up the money

spend on a much better fork later or other component that make more different in your riding.

Thanks for the advice bro. I thought it was a good deal so thought of changing.
Otherwise use my money on changing my groupset to XT.
I was told my bike feels like a harley davidson. I've got a focus black forest 5.0 btw.

looks good... dun worry about spec too much. they are decent. more bike at this range are more or less the same. giant have slightly better components. just make sure you get the right size for urself.

invest in a good helmet, backpack and some basic tools like pump, spare tube and multitool.

last week some noobie crashed in kiara and dont have any tool with them to fix the crooked handlebar... please dont do that!!

Hi to every sifus here! I'm quite a newbie on biking. Currently looking for a Giant bike with ATX7 frame. Don't really like the front fork performance though... So i wanna change a new/better fork. Due to really tight on budget, i spotted the suntour xcm v3. Would it fit on the ATX7 frame? Which criteria should i look for if i wanna change the front fork? Thanks! =)

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!

Suntour XCM V3 not recommended at all.... my bike comes stock with it. Rebound is crappy as ever and the fork is stiff like crazy... wrists hurt even after short ride in comparison to higher-end forks.

Save up and go for a better fork, it'll be worth the while (That's what I'm doing now smile.gif )

Agreed. Go FOX or go home! hehe. for all others there is Rockshox. I am not a pro but I have had those and Marzocchi and let tell you, Fox and Rockshox for XC is pretty good, i had reliability issues with my Marzocchi

son, the feeling of pain free while you ride on a Fizik saddle is priceless, for the price of a Fizik there is Mastercard.
