Yes yes, he is the guy.. Very down to earth and humble talking guy. Not cocky at all. Another gem is Pauline which is also very humble and nice to talk to. I know Pauline first as we did weekly riding at Setia Alam.

U can either get a china brand name Xds which come with a better component but I recommend you to get Raleigh Ugo instead. Try to search around.
RRP at RM900 but most shop selling it for RM700  rclxms.gif

Btw, i am using Raleigh Ugo too.  laugh.gif

Nope, i dun have any preference so far.
Hence u can buy at any shop which offer cheaper pricetag.
Of course, it's better to buy near your house as if there is any problem, just cycle there to do it.
There will be on and off adjustment need to be done and fine tune at the gear when newly bought.

If I read you correctly, your headset's stem connector may be loose. All you need to do, is to tighten the bolt connecting your stem to the headset. When the stem is loose, it tends to wobble and flex, this is caused by wear and tear..

This picture shows how the headset and stem is connected.

nah, but def thought of getting one in future haha

the cheapest is less than 3k i think, with components worth only half the price compared to if u get a regular HT MTB..

27sp acera groupset with XCR 80mm fork

but i reckon the folding mechanism is better than montague..
