well here is more on my rideat sg buloh/ frim, my new camelbak bladder works great in my deuter backpack, in fact i didnt even notice the backpack even with 3kg of water and tools in it. but my 2.1 panaracers were abit of a drag in the wet sandy and light mud conditions. i think my old 1.95 panaracer and specialized team pro would work better but will have to wait till after CNy to get them from KK.
my trusty old Jamis Durango climbed well but steroid was a killer but me still abit descending about some of the drops and coming Steroid was a bit scary at some points coz it was a bit hairy and steep at some parts.

The drops coming from Steroid ain't so bad what rite? Just fast and nice. Don't know bout the condition though.

iI'm considering in getting a Zefal Atlas hydration bag.
What do you guys all think?
Comments? Suggestions? Opinions?

hey man it looks good, if the price is right buy it! if not and if the supplier for Deuter bags is clearing stock in your area then go have a look, i got my Venom 30 pack for rm130 and it is great for the riding i have done so far and is big enough for an all day ride i think. plus i upgraded it with a 3L camelbak bladder. it is cheap and i love it!

my current cable routing is pretty weird and long to enable barspins coz planning to learn barspin soon lol...

and coz the cables are long and bend here and there,cable flex is pretty noticable...
