This kind of bike only 1 size. So it is totally depend on the height of the rider.

Yes. But as you can see. The seatpost is at its minimum height. Unless the rider is a kid.

I took a closer look, looks like as other said, the seatpost is too low

unless he height is <150cm

If you observe.
Many cyclist adjust the seatpost heightso that when they stop. Their feet can touch the ground when seated. When they cycle, their leg won't be pedalling efficiently.

I had tried telling a few cyclist in my taman about this. But they still don't get it.

On a steep climb the front may get lifted up.
Need to move your body over the handlebar.

I dont know this before.
163x4.40=717.20
Yup, way wider.  laugh.gif
On climb, I dont notice much difference with the wide handlebar.
But when downhill, definitely can confirm more stable with the wider handlebar.

I think handlebar preference depend also on the type of riding.
On my XC bike, I dont use wide handle bar, I use 720.
Before this, 680. Too narrow for my liking.
780 is on my trail bike.
Wow. Very nice price there... Especially the cable housing.
The handlebar also nice, 35 summore.. thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif

One time I put back the 680 bar
Felt tiring. Not comfy. Got used to wide bars.

Also on long climb, perhaps a 3km climb...I find breathing is easier with wide bars. Maybe because my chest is more open as compared to 680.

no need expensive brand. The KMC x9 x10 x11 x12 and shimano 8 9 10 11 12 chain full of counterfeit. And the shimano entry level rotor / altus gear set tons of it.

I not encourage those newbie who not familiar with genuine product to buy it. If experience user then should be ok. So many trap outside the world. LOL
*
Yeah.
These are the easy selling models. That's why.

If buy fake at cheaper price still not too bad.
Imagine your are paying the same ori price for a fake.

no need to practise, this set up should be fine with me on the climb...just want to know if oval chainring does help or not only if compare to round chain ring...coz im itching to try new thing if it really help
*
Certain things need to test it out yourself
Just like saddle.

Why not just buy an oval chainring and give it a try? If you don't like it. Can easily sell it off.

When check at SR Suntour website, it is legit.
I suspect the body is legit, but the internal part is fake.

On the very first ride.  dry.gif
Very harsh ride.
Even harsher than the old coil fork.

I thought it just need simple leg service to replace the oil.
But as soon I got to see the damper, I notice the damper is stuck, hard to move.
At that moment, I thought only the damper is faulty.
So I ordered new damper. After replace the damper, same thing happen. Harsh.
So, right now I think the seal also is fake. When I compare the seal with the coil fork, it is huge difference in term of softness.
The original coil fork seal is so much softer..

Did you confront the seller and demand for a refund?
