Frim ada.. Rovers track then mandi kat air terjun
Frim rover is opened for MTB ?
Mtb was banned from this trail many years ago thanks to some idiots rode recklessly and speeding on this trail.
This used to be my warm up trail before I hit other trails in frim.

The hill a small one only. For a weak legs old fag and noob like me is ok, lesser challenging. Just nice for me to accustom and build confidence while down hill as starters.

I'm looking for a full suspension MTB, with budget of around Rm5k-6k.
Looking for members suggestion between these 2 options:
Merida 99 CF or
Alcott Denon The Merida is 29" while the Alcott is 27.5"
The Merida is available on discount as it is an old model already while the Alcott is quite new, but not much info/review
Mainly for santai ride near my place in Kemensah/Melawati during the weekend and also for ride on gravel track at my kampung in Sekinchan maybe once a month
Not sure about Alcott but Merida is a more established brand. I trust Merida frame design more.

For kemansah ride better you opt for xc

Very beefy rear triangle. AM ?
What do you think of Marin alpine trail 7?
Very tempted to get one.
Yes, AM/Enduro. It's an aggressive hardtail with a slack headtube angle.
Looks decently specced, I think best for you to wait it out for abit. I got an insider info that they will be rolling out the 2021 version soon.

Now I use 720mm riser 30mm, my friend give me 780mm riser 25mm. I still not yet to install. Don't know what is the feel.

Not sure about that. But this model still can buy from online but definitely will expensive a bit due to postage fee.
