Night, u should come to Penang expecially my area. U would probably be amazed that how many hardtail hardcore riders acctually are only using Epicon only.
Not many people uses FOX here. Not sure why, probably because of the hefty price tag.
So far people just buy the EPICON and they say they dont have any problems at all but then when I as them about FOX they always say they had some troubles with it for the starting few months. LOL...weird.

Is 13kg light for a dual sus bike?

I would say average for a real mountain bike. Light will be around 10-11 kg and heavy will be 14-15kg. Depends on what setup u intend to use it for. If for XC then it's quite heavy but if for AM then it's just nice.

My hardtail is 13.5 kg! And I have no troubles with it. Stable.

Mine's 29.5 pounds! >.< Hahaha. Gotta look for new tires. Lim already commented on them!

who's Lim?

Well lighter bikes tend to accelerate easier and easier to carry and quicker cornering, but heavier bikes have more momentum and are more stable. Depends on riding ler...but basically lighter is better as long as it's stiff and strong. That's my opinion.
But all in all, the rider is what that really matters.

Lim is the mechanic at BikePro. Wonder what I should get..

which tyre do you recommend?

So far I'm good with Conti, but a bit soft.
Well, there's so much of choices nowadays.
WTB seems quite nice for AM.

Tyre got many choices.. Got Continental, Panaracer, Michelin, Kenda.. but all have to see whther the LBS got stocks for it la...

Its either Kenda, Maxxis or Michelin
