3. RD
4. hubs

shud i get grouppo instead?

you were there?

wow..huhu.. which one is you? lol
im the slowest rider there guys!!..

definitely shows that not riding for a freaking long time takes a toll on me..hahaha.. fell twice at the race.. once at practice, and one at the road gap... its definitely a freaking tight trail, with lots of off chamber turns, drops into turns, freaking long pedalling section and not for getting the super looooooosssseeeee track..hahaha..

had fun during the weekend at johor.. definitely going there again.. now need to recover from the "nangka busuk" crash and more XC for me definitely.. not enough stamina to get trough the trail guys..huhuhu

owh ya... my fork bengkok abit, but still ridable..

and there was two people including zure that broke their hand

I was the one who took those pics of Ober hehe... was there whole day Saturday & Sunday
I really wanted to enter the race but I sent my rear shock for servicing and didn't get it back in time 

yeah lots of crashes even for the pros, especially at the triple drops into off camber turn near the starting point. Hong Chun & Nan Uncle Bully crashed there in the morning session. Super dry & loose track haha...

wow..take care and heal fast guys...

KLD was pedal, pedal, pedal

and i ain't saying anythin'

How come?

meaning the banshee has arrived!

btw, anyone has a single speed conversion kit that u not using.. i want.

Post-crash remorse issit?
Why take things so seriously.. cycle for recreation ler.
At least you still have the remaining t-bolt.. or do you?

how come mate?

wah.. saw ober bike for sale just now. thought you got a new bike.. but now want to quit already.

guys, can i use kerosene as a degreaser?

oit bugger.. sms me what frame are you getting? but the morphine ober selling is definitely a beauty.. ehehe

sayang he is getting rid of it...customed to his style already...

me...uhm...another Kona in the making...a 07 model. a downgrade of the haro x7 08...

dun quit lah bro...go lite and not hardcore...u enjoy moar..push urself too hard and end up frustrated..we ride for life mate...

agreed.
ober dun sell ur bike yet.

dun u had any good times with ur bike at all?

u might not going fulltime MTB now but heck sure u'll ride it once a while to get urself away from ur band.

hehehe. jus a lil 2 cents.

Where to buy diesel besides pertrol station. Any specific grade of diesel that is recommended? Sorry ya...I want to get too.
I heard sifus say never use wd-40 la. Not good for the chain. I dont like the idea of getting that stuff seeping into the rollers between the chain. Currently, I just use a rag to wipe the chain until clean (but cannot get between the rollers), then re-lube it. Thinking of getting diesel and give it a good scrub.
Nak poison dia lagi ka? ehehehe. Looks like Lord Darkslide has no chance to recover from poison. He better go visit klinik "LBS" and get the "SLX/XT/XTR" treatment.
Agree with leinnz. You should keep it for a while la. Maybe you can regain your passion after riding it a little more. Give it some time and dont quit so sudden.

yeah man, very sudden of you quitting just like that.
Haven see u debut with ur banshee yet...  i been following this tread for a while, u been inspiration to many with ur help on a lot of cycling knowledge.
the grade is the same for ur usage ler, Any diesel from any petrol station will do ler.. can just get a bottle and fill with some diesel.

IMO. diesel is the best degreaser... easy to work with.

I agree with iman.. let's face it, ya can't make a living as a pro DH'ler at least in Malaysia, I'm sure there's sh1tloads of opposition from love ones everytime u crash, seems like a fruitless pursuit so wtf.. take it easy and relax ler.. put on ur lycra *gosh*... ride some km's... watch the world pass by... or do some touring...get into the zone.

matching gloves samore lol...

guys.. this is the second time i post this question....

please suggest a shop in KL that I can get hydration pack, high sierra or camelbak..

Stupid clicking noise is annoying... will try to get it serviced to see if it'll go away. Else will try something else... fox, sid or maybe rigid.

durolux and x7?

srsly the bike is still heavy.
Should i change the crankset to slx 1st or the carbon handlebar+stem?

NS...great looker...camo...

here is mine...



will put up whole bike later...

here u go guys...

i would list up the specs later...

guys... i need help...
today a fellow rider offer me his (frame only) white Santa Cruz Chameleon '08 for rm1k...
its 18" size....

so... it is a good buy? a steal? or expensive...?

thanks

guys,

my stock Merida saddle is too bad ass for my future babies. Feeling numb..despite doing all the necessary standing for a while to relieve the pressure.

Been researching high and low.

Currently looking at WTB Rocket V and also WTB Speed V. Which one should fair better?? or do you have other suggestion?
Dont really care about the weight, as long as comfortable..

Sniper, what your say on the WTB rocket?

that stinky's frame can only take max 130mm fork bru...and its an old 04 frame..

the coiler is a newer frame...07 model...and its an FR with 6 inch travel..front max 160m.

the stinky i got originally comes with a 130mm..prolly newer ones are meant to be 150mm above.

Coiler for AM? on the Kona's website is meant for FR..oklah for the budget...

nope..did not get the frame from zure...i paid 3k for the frame.

get a good roadbike seat...coz its meant for long seating...

Added on February 16, 2009, 10:46 amthis has made me change from my stinky 04 to the coiler 07

'We first developed the Coiler series so freeriders could have an easier time pedaling up and over hills. All Kona freeride bikes are pedal friendly, but these bikes have lost a little weight, and are angled slightly more for the hammer (the climb) than the nail (the huck)'

The Coiler 07

well...if the cash allow prolly for a Kona Stab 08 in June 09? hahaha
