By the time that you reach FRIM, Kepong from PJ.
You'll be too tired to cycle with me. blush.gif

Hey guys, what tires do you think I should purchase?
The:
Tioga Red Phoenix 2.0
or
Tioga Factory XC 2.1?
Btw, I just purchased a new pair of tires for RM30! whistling.gif
They're Deli XC 2.0 (OEM tire manufacturer for some Polygon bikes) biggrin.gif

Yeap, not the best choice for you.
It shouldn't even be a choice for you.
Find another method of transportation such as tagging along with someone else that's going to FRIM.
Sorry but I won't be able to pick you up because I'm not even old enough to drive (14 this year tongue.gif).
My neighborhood friend who cycles (like a mountain goat) picks me up cause he lives opposite my house and we cycle together-gether at FRIM. biggrin.gif

penah tak dgr orang2 tua2 cakap/nasihat.... jgn pukul/tepuk belakang or dada kuat2... nanti jantung jatuh...

didnt get a new headset.still the same one that came with the bike. The HED doctor works like a star nut.installed the fork myself and didn't want to bang the star nut in so i got this...hehe

880 w/o installation
i agree lah....nice colour.very appealing to me as well
i couldn't find the dunlop goggles so had to settle for the Bolle safety range.it's RM31 and its polycarbonate with anti-mist/fog/scratch properties and filters UV. not bad huh? for those of you that want something to protect your eyes when riding in the woods, this is actually quite an affordable alternative.

Hi there, can you please tell me where did you get the Bolle glasses from? I need something like that for protection. Is it really RM31?

Thanks

Change the cable covers for all cables (shifter and brakes) of your bike to some really attractive ones. brows.gif
Like "neon-colored-cables".

Get the Red Phoenix! Ex-user here, it was on my Giant. Lasted me 3 years until I decided that after 1 month of skidding mania with schoolmates, it started to look like Maxxis Hookworms. Then switched to Specialized Pro tyres.. if I were to voice out on overall performance it'd be Nevegals.. the SB8 rolls dayumm fast on hard packed ground and asphalt.. these are on the Santa Kurus Superlight laugh.gif

Ober, I pon kena bende cilaka same ngan ko...

but it was from football lol.. was daydreaming (I was the goalie) and someone blasted the ball at my torso. I though it was crushed lol.. feel like dying cos I was breathing like the ppl on their deathbed (like the movies!).

You and "ober", posted conflicting posts.
I'm confused, should I buy the Tioga Factory XC or the Tioga Red Phoenix?
Both of them are very cheap (RM40 per piece for Tioga Red Phoenix 2.0 tongue.gif)
So which one has better grip on dry conditions (won't be used on tarmac at all! sweat.gif), mild downhilling and a lot of tight cornering.
Btw, what's "SB8" mean?

Kenda Small Block Eight (SB8) --> quick tires but mud/grass/cow poo will stick to it and won't come out so it gets slippery in wet
