Depends on your budget - I'd highly recommend SR Suntour forks. Alot of people here are using Suntours too. If your budget is around RM300 then get the SR Suntour XCR. Around RM500-600, get the SR Suntour Epicon. At about RM450 or so (not sure) you can also get a RockShox Dart 3. But what kind of riding you do? Do you do cross-country or just pusing-pusing around town only?

Hm.. most of us here hardly meet each other in this forum.. since we are all spread all over the country and globe.. but I see that a few of us regularly go on rides in Kiara, FRIM and so on. I mostly test my wares in Kiara, since it's near my home in Mutiara Damansara.

Very nice... just coincident that I saw the same frame in my LBS under the La Bichi brand totally pimped up.

My cousin is now a skateboarder LOL. RM60/pair that's the price of my Kenda Kinetics. But it's not those types with white Kenda writings at the sides - mines all black, I suspect it's a reproduced pair. But it still has front/rear specific tyre grooves.. and even thought its not pure ori tyres can still climb better than my friend's Kona Cowan with Kenda Blue Groove tyres. My 10-year old GT Backwoods still can climb like a goat! biggrin.gif
Wow sweet.. but the other parts is rigid lah?
Hey.. are those disc brakes using Hayes rotors? I like your tyres man.. what does it say, Werscream? What brand is that?

EDIT: Those are Maxxis? Wow! No money to buy any more Maxxis xD (never bought any anyway)
*
bro. i dunno abt the rotors. but all i know is this brakes r like shit & i have to always brake early to stop .. sob sob..

Hi everyone, i took a very extremely long break from this forum. Been extremely busy, seldom ride also. Come back to find out its already V9 and its 4+ pages. Trying to catch up with MTB'ing. Hope to ride with u guys again very soon.

Bro, this was my first mountain bike. Its cheap but nice and do the job just nice. I still have the frame with me. Planing to build a roadie with it. I saw a guy built a Dirt Jump bike with this frame last time, damn cun.

This bike was made by local bike company, Gin Huat. Their warehouse is near my shop. If ur riding in FRIM during the weekend, you might see the boss riding with his fellow staffs there.

Everything on it are ZOOM brand. The part wear and tear very fast, not lasting. About your braking problem, try change the brake pad. I had the same problem last time. And the fork feels like rigid fork just after few off-roading. Your should be planing to change them soon.
*
i'll be getting my brake system changed soon. so not to worry. end of the month i'm getting my shit shifters changed to Deore shifters.. then later changed the front & rear derailleurs.. how much will that cost? i agree wit u bro.. the fork feel like it's hard & not responding to the road bump very well. i will change it maybe end of April. cheers

nothing much about the technical problem with the Deore itself la. If you change to Deore and stay in this thread. Sooner or later, the guy with the dancing spy lady will start indirectly poison you.. (even though he say he self poison tongue.gif) then you will see some other dudes with their canggeh frame+parts... poison until cannot tahan.. haha...

If you can tahan, no problem with Deore Shifter+RD. They feel great and precise than my chapalang shifter. cost me RM300+ last time to change to deore shifter and RD.

Bro. i understand wat u mean. but to me, i'm happy wit every feedback frm u guys. i'm a person who buy things wit the amount of cash i can spend on.. frame is not a thing for me. for me is my fork, brakes, shifters & also minor add ons. i've been thru the same thing wit computers.. i know my limit.. tq 4 the advice bro.. cheers
