Mga fafi,

Dito ko tinanong sa bogs at baka sa sobrang dami ng suggestions sa pmtb lalo ako malito

anyways, I'm thinking ( pa lang ) of building an mtb
26inch wheels
preferably w/ 4-5 inch travel front and rear suspension, coil rear shock
Slack frame geometry
diore drivetrain
ok lang kahit generic parts yung hindi importante
Kasi I'm hoping it would not cost more than 60k
any suggestions?

Medyo out of circulation na rin ako sa cycling but how about built bike either Merida or Giant?

I'm not sure kung kasya sa budget ang giant reign fafi

teka, di ka din nag bike?

I dont shoot or ride either
Pero pag may gimik ang shooters at bikers present ako hehe

[batangueno]

Go for 2nd hand. Madami yata nag-upgrade to 29" so baka marami nagbebenta.

yup - promise ko sa sarili ko. I shall ride after the holidays
pero meron akong konting takbo para hindi tumaba masyado

Tama din si Fafa Paul - ok din mga 2nd hand from guys who change bike like they change underwear

[Allegra]

problema lang sa 2nd hand is the fit
Hirap maghanap ng malaking 2nd hand frame

hmmmmm... I forgot hindi ka pala common tao

para maenganyo ka:

Naisip ko rin nga kung 60k amount baka kulang ng konti for an all terrain bike

[chilipowder]

got my Reign from here...

http://www.ironbike.net




not really an expert...and indeed it was quite confusing when i started to scout for one...hehe so i went for a built bike...

[Allegra]

Thanks guys
Looking aT THE links, parang wala pumasok sa budget
btw, di pala reign ang hanap ko sa giant, trance pala

di na yata kaya ng buto ko ang hardtail

Kaya pa ng buto mo ang hardtail. Hindi na kaya ng buto mo yung dinadaanan mo dati.

I know of a guy who brings a folding bike to trails - kung medyo hardcore na - he folds it and walks it

[batangueno]

Ang dami nga naka folding bike ngayon. Kapatid ko rin meron inaakyat nya ng timberland.

[pogi]

Fafa, puede ka rin mag buo ng 29er na di aabutin ng P60T
If your drivetrain is Deore-kaya.

[Allegra]

Fafa,
Naisip ko nga din mag 29 pero I decided on the traditional 26 kasi I'm planning to use it mag ikot probinsya ( hopefully marinduque/mindoro/romblon )
I'm not sure how available ang mga 29 sa mga liblib na lugar

My old bike still works pala
Cranks need to be changed
Kaso yung frame diamondback pa haha

[Allegra]

looks like i have to increase the budget
You cant build an all mountain w/ a budget of 60k
Problem , looked at all the stores for trance and reign frames , wala makuhang large
Looking at this -

yung frame at tinidor lang ha not the components
Problema it's a 29

Anyone here ride a 29? mas ok ba?
I'm worried about wheel parts availability sa probinsya

[pogi]

...ala eh Fafa, kaya pala di kaya ng P60T-full sus na Niner ang tinatarget mo. Frame alone may cost you 80-135T.

Should you decide on Niner, try their stores at Molito or at Westgate. Hihingi kita ng additional discount. Major owner is like a son to me.

29...29...rah rah rah.
29...29...sis bumba.

[Allegra]

hehe kumain kasi ako sa molito , meron pala sila large all mountain sa gran trails the RIP9
i'm thinking if I slap on murang parts i can keep the costs down
Curious tuloy ako sa 29

[batangueno]

Matangkad ka naman ... Ayos yan 29 sayo.

[jasonub]

oks yan niner but you cant get one full sus below....

[Allegra]

22lbs , parang roadbike yan a, ang gaan
At my weight and the terrain sa backyard volcano namin , di ako pwede sa lightweight bike
Parati bali sakin ang rayos, and tires have to be more than 40psi or nafafflat
My old mtb weighted 40lbs hehe

anyone here from marinduque or mindoro?
Safe ba mag bike around the island?

[jasonub]

actually pinararampa ko eto but im only about 160+ pounds. custom build yeti full sus with x0 and xtr parts kaya napakagaan

si niel meron giant di ko lang alam anong price ng giant na all mountain

I asked a couple of weeks ago sir Allegra. Giant Trance X 2 29er i think. 80k was the price. built bike. of course not XTR compo and other high end. was planning to get Giant Trance X 1 29er para gunban pa sexy, price was 115k if i remember correctly hahahah.

But right now, i have my eyes on the Specialized Stumpy or Epic

[edtf]

wala ba mga roadie dito??
