Just hit the Kiara Trails today!

Definately climbed up "Snake & Ladders". Down "Dirty Deeds" (is that right?). Down "Longer Short". And from there, somehow ended on the horse trails which was crap.. Literary full of crap and stagnant water. Was damn afraid that those water were horse piss!

Did not manage to kill myself this round there! Great time flying down "Dirty Deeds" (around switch backs and beams). Looks like my NRS managed to get me out alive!

That's just the frame only sumore.. The fork i'm getting is a 2008 Fox Float R.

wahliao Fox Float

me suffer with zoom -.-"

wah..somebody got rich liao suddenly..struck gold ar? hahahha...faster tell me where's the gold pot!

cool, which year stumpjumper..i am riding the 08 model..i am using Revelation Uturn Air 100-130mm..better than the Fox..in terms of tunability...plush as well..

meow getting the 08 model

Dvng speaks the truth, dunno how long before some developer pays off somebody from putrajaya or kl and bulldozes the place for high end condos etc. just like they are going to do to what remains of sg buloh. thanks for the advice, been thinking about how i could improve...
and then i found out i bent the rear shifter cable adjuster just as it comes out of the shifter. i sure hope it can be put back in.

the destruction has started..the agung is bulldozing some of the trails so he can ride his horse there..some of the trail in barrucuda, lower short, around the mountain, boulder is already destroyed..traks need help..to keep the trails..please volunteer your effort..afraid meow may not get get the opportunity to ride his stumpy in kiara..

Added on January 3, 2008, 12:29 pmfyi.. a fully build up stumpy will cost in the region of rm12k...even with used parts mine came up to almost rm10k..i am now looking at a 'new' sx trail II frame..170mm travel..

---

Added on January 3, 2008, 12:36 pmand why did meow change his mind from a 'heckler' to stumpy with only 120mm travel..if i can do it again.. i would have gone for either the Heckler 150mm or Bullit 160mm travel, Yeti ASX 160mm travel or SX Trail II 170 mm travel..i found out the hard way...the stumpy just seems to have stuck in between..but purely xc only..and little or no jumping and dropping at all.....sigh...i will keep the stumpy in xc race spec only...freeriding is out of the question..


p/s meow, the stumpy can only take a maximum 120mm travel fork only...unlike the 07 model which can go up to 140mm..

how much is it?

the sx trail II is the same price as the stumpy pro 08..or more..but the build up will cost more.. a Fox Vanilla 36 Van or Marzocchi 66 is gonna cost RM2.8k and above..i reckon RM14k fully build up..
