hehe mahal talaga yang mga yan. my friend who uses nevegals isnt impress with its performance

*isuzoom, not really, im using bontrager folding kevlar, 300 each lang

kaso bilis mapudpud, may 4mos palang ata yun, the middle knobs are almost flat na. the reason why some are cheap is bec yun yung mga di pumasa sa quality check-according to one bikeshop owner, pansin ku rin dati yung decals nung specialized adrenaline di pantay

*iskulbukul, your tires are too wide, 2.5's are used for downhilling lang for more grip. on roads malakas roll resistance niyan hehe

yung mtb eb tagal na wala pa, bago palang aku sa tsikot up to now di parin matuloy tuloy

Maxxis Flyweight 1.95x26 1,000 each (new)

malaki sobra tires mo bro...feel mo talaga pag change mo to 1.95

ok rin ba yung MAXXIS RANCHERO(2.0x26). na pabili kasi ako kasi parang reasonable ang price (450php)kahit di pa due for tire change ang MTB ko.

ka i-install ko lang, comparing it to Specialized FSR XC stock tires, (adrenalin, 2.0xx26 ata yung model ng specialized), parang mas makapit ang maxxis and lower ang resistance.

ok pang trail rides but mabigat sa road.

Ganito ba talaga mga full suspension bikes? Kapag na-tono na yung RD, then pagsakay ko, nawawala lagi sa tono, so I have to adjust it manually while riding. Iniisip ko nahihila or nagiiba siguro yung tension ng cable once na nakasakay na ako since nagbebend yung rear part. Or baka kulang lang sa haba yung cable ko?

**wildthing** · November 8th, 2007 01:38 AM

I think ganun nga... iba kasi ang flexibility ng mga full suspension now a days...yung oldschool ay up and down pivot lang... yung ngayon up and down na plus forward and backward pa.

Dapat siguro ang design ay yung plato kasama dun sa assembly ng rear....o kaya yung derailer mo merun tensioner ...
