QUOTE(tvcat @ Mar 20 2013, 12:01 AM) The hype now is 29. Anyway it all depends on your preference and your size.For me, 26 will train your strength and endurance. 29'er is good for competition. I notice a few people convert their 26'er to 27.5 rims and fork |

QUOTE(Broadica @ Mar 21 2013, 12:08 PM) it not about poor or not la... there always misconception about bike and its value. a lot of bikes that look like a mountain bike out there is actually meant for the tarmac; i like to call them hybrid commuter, but they are absolutely not fit for actual off road riding. you can but they were not built to last. I've ride a yr 1997 lerun mtb to hash 5 yrs back. Join for fun of the hype. Finished and felt proud to accomplished as some did not. It's all within your mind. Any MTB bikes, be it full, sub, hard-tail, full hard tail, as long as you have the right mind, right skills, you'll finished any terrainat this discovery stage... an entry bike selling at 3k for example may seem expensive, once you ride, know more and want more.. then you can justify to pay more for a proper make mountain bike. no worries since you already bought... go try and ride it on actual offroad.. then you will know. just remember to be safe ..always ride with helmet ... BTW, I have tried cycling into the jungle with a foldie. hehhe. This post has been edited by leinnz: Mar 21 2013, 01:59 PM |

QUOTE(rathishsiva @ Mar 28 2013, 03:21 PM) Hi Bros! for this price, you are ripped. You could get better specs with 2.5K RM.I am planning to get a MTB. Will start off at around the housing area first to build up on the fitness and then might think of delving further to take it up as a hobby.. Thinking of buying my first bike. I have done a fair bit of research, and have narrowed it down to 2 models: 1. Kona Blast 2013 - Priced at around RM2500 2. US KHS Alite 1000 - Priced price at around RM2300 I would like to know, which of these 2 are of a better value for money? Or any other bikes which you guys might be able to recommend. I am pretty big and heavy (6 ft and almost 100Kgs). Thanks for the feedback!! |

QUOTE(n_chun21 @ Mar 30 2013, 06:41 PM) I now using 9 speed, crankset if change xt the teeth is same y will lighter really dont understand, is it Bzos BB? Leg power need a time upgrade, everytime cycle upper of my leg part feel pain also dont know what is the reason... Bro, If you would like, it is more towards your cadence when climbing. XT crank wont help you. It only helps to shift gear fast and last longer or more durable. tat it. it is the BB tat helps you. What crankset u using? Is it with BB Hollow II or BB30? Just upgrade the BB with ceramic or Tiramic or for budget service it regularlyP/S:Weight Weenie is just for those who are weak to carry their bike. Remember your bikes carries you around for long distance. how heavy are you. Your bike is at most less than 20KG. Can't carry meh. mine is 12KG and i am ok to carry it when climbing unridden path. |

QUOTE(Broadica @ Apr 1 2013, 10:41 AM) upgrade BB wont feel any different la.. dun simply say. ceramic/tiramic is expensive and that slight smoother bearing wont be felt unless u already have other good component to go with it at peak performance. Are you sure BB wont feel any different?9 speed to 10 speed upgrade will definitely help on the climbing due to better gear ratio... 22t front with 36t rear. weight does matter... 15kg vs 12kg big lot of different more over a 20kg bike. dun la simply give extreme different. weight weenies actually refers to those who pay dearly to drop little weight different. its a misused term btw. for newbie, 9 speed will do now.. ride more and build the stamina. upgrading to 10 speed help but most likely u will still push bike. might as while train harder and upgrade things like the wheelset to a lighter one that give you more significant differences during your ride. rolling weight can be felt more obvious that dead weight. yea 9 sp vs 10 all will go 10 as new tech. but which is cheaper to buy. Chg of BB surely helps What is important when climbing a hill is your cadence and gears choose. In a steep long ascend you need to change your gear gradually. Do not immediately change to the lightest gear. Also do not change at the last minute. Follow your heartbeat/rythm. if you do it you can make it. Even if it is a long climb uphill. What do you want in cycling? The feel of riding in a terrain, climbing hill and going downhill. Playing with single track. Tat is most important. BTW, I am using 9 speed SRAM X-5 with front Deore crank with good BB. And heck i can climb hill with this. Anyway i am still with 9sp due to budget la. Anyone wants to sponsor me or donate me their unused parts which is better than what i have to me? |

QUOTE(Broadica @ Apr 1 2013, 11:11 AM) yes, BB wont... Shimano BB to token tiramic BB or hope ceramic BB wont feel much/any different. Bro? i guess you are the one who is confuse now,,, Square tappered and HollowtechII is not a BB? Hmmm... cadance and gear got nothing to do with BB.. BB is just the bearings. so changing bb wont feel much. changing crank will help.. in most cases you change BB with your crank is due to different size and different crank. especially from square tapered to hollowtech crank due to lighter crank and better gear ratio. so you better dont confuse yourself or others on BB Anyway I know my point and I will stand to it. You can do ur test in your real life cycling and logic. Which is smooth and which better if you compare to ceramic and normal BB. If you have a not smooth BB, do you need extra energy to kick the pedal and most of your energy will go to this instead of rotating the crank? If you have a smooth BB, ur kicking will mostly go towards the crank movement instead of fighting the friction. Anyway it's all up to one riders. I am just pointing from my experience of riding. Some to add: I advised on ceramics or tiramic mainly because it reduces friction or drag when pedalling compared to normall provided. If you do not plan to change your BB, regular cleaning of your BB would help alot to remove this friction. This post has been edited by leinnz: Apr 1 2013, 11:38 AM |

QUOTE(Broadica @ Apr 1 2013, 11:50 AM) No dude... Square tappered and HollowtechII is not a BB!! they are called spindle. spindle are part of the crankset. but they are related to BB. since u've read i am using deore, do u read that i am using tiramic as well?what you referring is the crankset. get your terms right and not to confuse others. but if you say change crankset help on climb.. yes due to weight and the gear ratio. BB is the bottom bracket... changing crankset with different splindle type requires the change of BB to fit due to different diameter or width. if you are using the same crankset and change BB from standard BB to ceramic or tiramic makes no different. So please give advise with correct terms, imagine people listen and go change the BB only will waste money. if no believe, keep your deore crank and change your BB to ceramic bearing and see. anyway i have put a point why i choose to use it because i need less maintenance/cleaning due to friction and it do help on my pedalling. As an avid MTB rider, I've always had my bike dirty and regular maintain as dirt and mud always get into these parts (the bearings. I had to removed the seal and greased the bbearings). I a little lazy to always clean and service my bike so i look for something with less maintenance. I do not really force anyone to change or buy. No harms. keep on pedalling bro. If these offended then sorry la... I am just a normal rider who love riding offroad. |

QUOTE(Broadica @ Apr 1 2013, 12:13 PM) offend not taken, Hmmm... guess that is true as well. better seal means less maintenance. hhh.but come on la...keep your ego. the point is not about ceramic or tiramic... what i am saying is correcting you on the wrong advice you given saying about "changing BB will help on the climb"... u merely giving wrong advise with wrong and confused terms. on otherhand, changing crankset will help. that should be the right term since you confused and interchange crankset with BB. and secondly, changing ceramic / or tiramic do not mean you need less maintenance. changing better BB with better seal might. ceramic or tiramic is only referring to the type of ball bearing used in the BB. I really am lazy to wash my bike every time i go offroad. Once a mth i washed her. not every ride. |
