QUOTE(dickybird @ Jan 3 2008, 12:10 PM) 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. Added on January 3, 2008, 12:25 pmstumpjumper pro 08?  i also want but money no enough! your rear shifter cable adjuster bent?....had the same problem....the screw adjuster was partly broken when it got bent during a ride...it was just a matter of time until it broke off....i dont think you will be able to straigthen it....it cause me to be without a bike for about 2 weeks until i got a 2nd hand part from the bike shop (got it from a broken RD).....not an easy part to get....lucky change to XT 08 shadow RD...now dont have to worry about it anymore...

QUOTE(dvng @ Jan 3 2008, 12:27 PM) p/s meow, the stumpy can only take a maximum 120mm travel fork only...unlike the 07 model which can go up to 140mm.. Here says 120mm, fakawi forum says 130mm but as advertised on at the Specialized website is 140mm..

Your link points to S-Works Stumpjumper FSR while im talking about Stumpjumper FSR Pro. And i wonder what model am i actually getting! Lol. After all, BoonFoo did say he was brining in a bunch of Specialized stuff.

After all, BoonFoo did say he was brining in a bunch of Specialized stuff. they are the same bike..the pro is the aluminium frame while the fsr is the carbon..they both have the same platform...and still it is 120mm travel..the enduro is 150mm..boon foo got three stumpy s,m,l. The ones he is bringing in is the SX trail frame..which is on a long waiting list..and that is a freeride bike.. This post has been edited by dvng: Jan 3 2008, 09:00 PM
