my taman ride mtb

I can smell somewhere down the future you will end up with Polygon siskiu lol

Haha don’t think I will get polygon again. Gonna try other brands

Try applying soapy water at the edges.

Thanks for the tip.

How did you put the tyre into the rim until the lever broke ?

I always use soapy water ( if at home ) on the edges of the tyre if I face difficulty. Instead of using the lever to push the tyre into the rim, try sliding it. Slide slide slide until it all goes in.

Until now I still unable to find a 34.9mm seat post and 38mm or 38.1mm seat post clamp.

Who can intro me ?

Wah... Very smart way I likey it 👍
If outside otr, can use saliva if no soap?
Or need to carry a soap along?

U never observe how car tyre shops install the tyre into the wheel?

OTR. Use saliva . Harrrrrrk ptuiii !

BBS no ?

In FB there are many mountain bike buy sell groups. You got ask there ?

No. Malaysia seem don't have people sell this size. Really hard to find now.

What frame you using there?
Quite an odd size.

alloy frame.

The worst case is to buy hope seat clamp which cost me RM130 and the size is bigger a bit (38.5mm).

Or buy Fouriers SCL-S007 38.1mm but it is not a quick release clamp.

Really hard to make a choice.

Not planning to get a dropper seat post?
Then no need for the qr clamp.

I got consider but seem my frame is outer cable setting and the dropper seat post is so heavy some more it is not cheap. Even entry level dropper like KS/DNM/FA also cost RM4xx~6xx. If those RS/Fox cost more expensive. Also hard to find good outer cabling dropper.
