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
*
this 2 models really not in same class..

Be careful of what you need actually. 1 is aim for XC another 1 is AM

so you want XC or AM ?

Thanks for your valuable advice.
If I want for cross country rather than all mountain, which is the better option?

Thanks

Do you guys/girls mind of buying those shimano spare parts which country origin made in indonesia / china instead of made in japan / malaysia?

This happen a lot entry / mid level groupset. Those highend groupset still made in japan.

Especially those old bike which use 9 speeds SLX XT XTR people.

Thanks for the reply. I see you mention the slx components. I can see CAMP has the Hydes 9.2 with Shimano SLX M7100 which is better right?. How does this compare to the Giant ATX Elite 1?
*
normally complete bike they will cut cost on brake set and crankset. You wont get full groupset for that.

Some will use sunrace cassettle and KMC chain too.

But those brand is ok.

This is the first MTB you want to buy?

Thanks for the reply too. I see the spec by their distributor mentioning full SLX groupset for this model.

Yeah my first bike.  nod.gif

The photo so blur can not see clearly. But when you go to see the real bike in shop you need to check clearly.

Example cut cost parts:
1. Brakeset => brake level + caliper + rotor
2. crankset
3. chain
4. cassettle

For the first bike I think buy 1 which budget below Rm1k alloy bike so later you think you really enjoy the MTB feeling then sell it and buy full suspension either => XC/trail/AM/DH.

So you can minimize the lost.
