Sorry to hear about your mom dude.. but it doesn't stop you from coming back here in LYN.. welcome, welcome I suppose you are surfing with those MacBooks you use in school as well
I believe I am the same age as NS1993.. we both born in 1993, so yes.. I am from SMKBUD(4) school, and if it helps my school is located in between Ikano, Ikea, and One Utama. Pretty neat, eh?
Govt. schools have alot of cyclists especially BMX Rempits.. then there are those quiet nerdy guys who use Lerun.. and there's only three people (now two left) who has ever bought a 'expensive' bike to school before.. one is a stock Proton T-Bolt like yours, green color.. one is me.. and the other is a guy that likes to help out at the Bandar Utama bike shop.. he currently rides a GT Avalanche is he hasn't changed to a Da Bomb yet..
About the Suntour XCR fork.. I don't recall the inches of travel it offers but you can bet its more or less the average travel of your RST Capa T4. The shop I often hang out at in Bandar Utama has one in stock.. it's 200 plus, don't remember exact price because I didn't ask.. and a friend of mine has been ogling the Suntour XCR for some time to match his new bike, a 2006 Gary Fisher GED (not exactly new, but it wasn't second hand).
If you are from Sri Cempaka, I wonder if you know any boy named Irfan? He is born in 1994 and I believe he is the same age as you.. he is no longer studying there but he was once in Sri Cempaka. That's the guy with the Gary Fisher.. I roped him into the world of mountain biking..costed him and his parents $$$$
Thanks for the kind wishes (also).

Yeap, I'm using my MacBook as I type this reply. I wish my school has the same location as yours. My T-Bolt is "orange"-colored, I chose orange as it's brighter and can be easier/easily spotted while I cycle on the road.

I won't be upgrading my bike *yet*, only after PMR.

I've heard of a boy called Irfan through another friend called "Aidin" who was introduced to MTB-iking by your friend (Irfan). Yes, from what I heard, Irfan upgraded from a Gary Fisher to a Commencal (If not mistaken). If he (Irfan) didn't upgrade to Commencal, then his brother is using Commencal. His (Irfan's) parents, have money if not mistaken.
