hei, im new here, from penang. i haven have a bike yet. but i thinking to get one myself and build them up. i have technical base and tools, so build up shouldn't be a problem.
i'm more toward road cycling, but might train for climb mountain. (final target penang hill, maybe after 2 year lolz) haha.
i'm thinking to get a hard tail bike. what i want to ask is, is there any1 29er? xD. wondering to get 26 or 29 lolz.

basically, i'm more toward mountain bike haha, not road bike lolz. ya, target climb up by bike. beside, by road, i meant mountain road lolz.( for car to pass through the mountain) so this count normal road also? should use road bike? ~.~
i think i will go for 26" , budget problem lolz....

mountain bike la, more chun xD.

guy, help me take a loook on my build(not yet buy but plan to buy like this)
frame: mosso 619xc
fork: rockshox xc28
handlebar,grip: mosso flat bar, ergon gp3
gear system: shimano m610
brake system: hydrolic shimano m615
rim,hub,tire: mavic xm319, shimano deore hub, cst c1698
saddle: selle royal respirato

comment plz, if the item is over good or bad ~.~ or you have other recommendation, especially the tire. cant fix on which tire i wan lolz

not really offroad, not the jungle type haha. still on the road, but got climbing lo.my main concern not climb hill, i believe the tyre will grip fine. however when going downhill, that what worry me haha.
if wan 29" or 27.5", need to change frame ald, but so far wat i saw is quite expensive than the one i choose(26") ~.~ or maybe u have suggestion? xD.
i dun mind the rim and tire expensive a bit, the major is the frame haha, fork i can go find at rockshox haha. rockshox 32xc can handle 26" n 29", not sure can use on 650b or not =.=. need suggestion haha

thinking to get 27.5" but little choice out there, any recommendation? for the frame, fork, rim n tyre?

hmm, i guess there isn't any good suggestion for 27.5. my budget is at 2-2.5k only, kinda hard for me to get a good 27.5. however i could get a good 26". suggestion? the bike, i'm still holding off from buying till 15/12/13 or end of the month. so keep your suggestion come haha.

icic, i mostly use at road, little mud only, i guess that should be be ok. coz i'm uncertain again between 26" n 27.5" >.<
so probably i will get xc28 and 27.5 frame with 27.5 wheel

u can say is budget problem lo~
if xc28, its just about RM150, if 27.5" fork, its gonna more than that, like double or triple price ~.~
