AndyLo,
I was saying if my old Shimano XT 2003 breaks I;ll intend to go for the 2008 XT RD..That will haf to wait for another 1 or 2 more years? ehhehe...

Haha.. Rarely hear about XT breaking on xc bikes.. But always hear about XTR breaking on dh bikes. I love the XT's cassette also..

Saw my fren riding his new XTC Composite, fuh!

Going to be RM1.2k broker next week..

Haha.... y? Oh btw, I kinda abused my bike today by coming down the stairs again n again.... Ouch... Testing my brakes.

Getting DT Swiss 4.2, Novatech hubs, DT Swiss Spoke and Juicy 3 hydro..

Wow..never heard of Juicy 3..Is it a new model? Sounds interesting..

And the DT 4.2, how much is it? Seems very hardcore and strong according to the site.

Budget brakes >.<

HFX-9 not good meh?

Might change to BB7 instead.. Juicy 3 is like the lowest of the lowest..

Yea that was what I was thinking honestly... Don't ruin a NRS because of brakes. Get a good brake to go with it.

me just an ocassional XC rider so actually V brakes will do, i think deore V also can already since our climate is mostly dry when we ride anyway. hydros look cool but not so cool when it comes time to do maintenance. DH n all moutain kakis sure will need the extra power and will not mind the weight. but for me, my deore LXs are cukup makan. hehe now if i can just resolve that judder when i squeeze the front V. maybe a new set of ceramic sidewalled rims will solve the problem! haha

So far I always find the Deore V very plush and not so smooth... LX is fine.

power to the LX users! just need some ceramic coated rims!

Ahh, quite expensive those rims.. Ceramic coated..

Avid Juicy 3 also ok wut...low end but still can deliver good braking system....like the guy said in the mtbr forum, that Juicy 3 is cheaper to produce then the Juicy 5....but still deliver strong braking
