Did you confront the seller and demand for a refund?

I dont becoz I got the fork three month later as I stuck at kampong due to MCO.

I bought this fork too for me hardtail, but I paid close to rm900 for it if I remember correctly.

I'm planning to open it to "convert " to 120mm.
I shall see the internals by then.

You do know this fork can convert between 80mm to 120mm.?


*
Yeah, the normal price is 800-900~.
When I see the price so cheap, I think I just get a jackpot price. sweat.gif


Yeah, I know it can convert travel.
This is what I meant when I say my air spring side is not the same with original.
Mine air spring side dont have the notch/hole to adjust the travel. It is fixed.
When I see that, I can confirm that is not original.
So fake lol.. sweat.gif

Back in the 90s, I once used an oval chainring crankset by Shimano, 200gs.
they call it the biopace

I hated it.

Guys what mountain bike should I get when my main interest is going downhill? Which brand and model do your recommend that is not too cheap and not those crazy expensive bikes that cost a myvi? Possible to get something decent for rm3k or max rm4k. Currently eyeing giant talon 2?
*
Get a full suspension bike.
Unfortunately, with that budget your choice is limited.
Can look up to Polygon D or T series.

Or, find a used bike. More value.

not sure if it is me or just the new tire feeling....Ikon feel like it had some auto assist when climb up.... im going to drop the width of my tire to 2.20 once i change the new wheel set this week.... giving it even more light weight feeling and see how it perform  hmm.gif .... probably i will change to rekon race for abit more downhill grip or maybe a dissector and lose abit of rolling speed.

Changing to lighter tire or wheels definitely will feel massive different.
I remember last time I change my standard wheels to ZTR crest rims+XT hubs+lightweight spoke+Racing Ray/Ralph tubeless tire, it feels like rocket laugh.gif .
Especially on trails, confirm can feels the different.

I am not sure the cheap definition refer to but you can still find brand new original product at cheap price like below:

Cannondale 31.8mm around RM6.34

Dahon 34.9 / 35mm around RM6.67

Unless you are finding very rare size like what I do previously. That one really so less option for me to choose.

Nice. Where do you find this?

Mine is RISK brand. Cheap at RM12 and lightweight at 14g only.
I prefer bolt on type as Im using carbon seatpost. That way I can set the torque.

RM8.01

All above are 35mm model. I'm not sure what size you want just give example for your reference.

I saw a lot people use RISK headset but not other components.

14g is so light weight. The one I bought previously is 60g. Solid and satisfy. But only got 1 color.

Oh.. A bit hussle for me to use taobao as need to use Google Translate. sweat.gif
