My quest for stylish and reliable wheels goes on... the one that makes my heart flustered riding one like mila Kunis , or Tengas did to you. Bring your own Poh Poh for seasoning!

Zipp has 70% of my vote, dun think others can top that for me. So the wheels are more or less settled.
Now hunting for a certain bike to go with it, but the local pricing for that certain bike needs to take a hit in the closeout before I take the plunge. eBay have some interesting prospect but not convincing enough to overlooked our local dealer.

now is the wrong time to talk closeout lar... wait another 6 months lar...

dun think of closeout lar... by the time it happens, you will be tempted by the replacement... and then you will think to wait for the closeout sale of that replacement and it will happen over and over and over again... like AFTA...

get the freakin bike and just settle it for once and for all...or you will forever not get it...

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! =)

ive been off the bike for 1 month...started golfing. lol. but yesterday I've had my 1st summer ride for 40km..still ok lah except the leg feel a bit weak.

Went to the lbs and saw the mavic cosmic carbone slr that was used to sell at 10k is now 6k only. converting to rm it would be like 4k plus only. is it wise not to buy or is the price is damn cheap? the same goes to the rsys slr... drool.gif

Nope! ..... to me, the whole cat and mouse waiting game will be good for me and cycling...ma! ...single minded determination to sacrifice other spendings for the sake of the project, will only heighten it's excitement and resultant appreciation. tongue.gif
Hopefully, at the end of the year, I can nap a mousey size price bike or keep the money for 2014.....or another new beginning of a new wait(not my intention)  hmm.gif
........aren't I just one of the many to fall in to this category of cyclist. smile.gif

maybe you should ask the MTB guys

https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2717086/+920

usually the forks fit most frame as MTB don't usually play with tapered head tube and different top and lower bearing sizes...what fork does it come with??? it might not be worth it if it is only more or less the same with the suntour and you might want to go study more on forks as today's forks is very advanced where you have many things to consider like remote lockout, damping adjustment, separated high speed and low speed damping adjustment, how much travel you need, quick release or axle style dropouts and stuff like that..
