me too, prefer 2x crankset. Thanks ya, will go shop and try out both to see which one i like.
if let say go for some offroad, do 120mm travel (xtrada) have advantages over 100mm travel (siskiu) ?

longer fork can ride more ganas. but depends on the overall geometry.

what's the reason for siskiu over xtrada? frame? fork? or groupset?
Thanks for the suggestion

like miao said, 29'' vs 27''
me riding siskiu6 29er
technical maneuver and trail feel less nimble than 27'' wheel
and for short rider, better go for 27'' for better geometry
100mm is sufficient for me xc trail berlubang and fire road
but because bigger rolling size, its provide 'cover' for me if sudden hit bump or drop
so far me saved from otb XD

but that all from my exp and opinion
me just rider taman XD

Hi all sifus, may i ask something?
SR SUNTOUR XCR RL-R and XCR LO-R, whats different ya? i guess both hydraulic forks?

hi guys, after much thought i've decided to go with flat pedals on my hardtail..gonna pick up those pedals tomorrow, can't wait to ride with those on.

anyway, i've also been looking at intermediate/enthusiast level air-sprung fork & 2 forks came to mind.
-first is the suntour epixon, i've seen a lot of riders with those on so i guess they must be ok to use.
-the second fork i'm looking at is the x-fusion enix. i rarely see those on bikes around where i ride & i wonder why..is it because it's priced higher or it doesn't perform as good as the epixon? and i only see one particular model, the enix on sale around BBS but not the velvet, etc..is the enix an older model, like the epicon used to be before being replaced by the epixon?

thanks for reply. i am around 173-175 cm tall, which one you guess is more suitable?

another thing is, the fork is hydraulic? or air?
