High n' Roll...


Maxxis High Roller 2.35
After selling my Tioga tire to Atan...I have to topup some money to buy another tire...again luckily I got an offer from Lokman...thanks bro...really appreciate it although at 1st...we could end up without any deal at all...many thanks then...here we go...2nd hand Maxxis High Roller 2.35..nicely fit my Sunrim...but the rear wheel need to do the alignment coz its more to the left side...need to center it back...btw the rim still using 8 speed cogs...balun ja la dulu ..tarak duit nak tukar 9 speed ni...-_-"

going back to my hometown this weekend coz Merdeka Holiday...will meet Ijan later...we plan to go to Mah Kok Tiong trail this Sunday...going to test the fork there...

The Eagle's Nest...

what's in the box???
guess what???
I ended my searching by buying Spinner Eagle HL-Dail All Mountain fork (same as Poji model but his black in color)....it's a very2x good timing coz it's Salary day tomorrow...bought it 2nd hand from Mr. Lee with a very good deal...he used it on his T-bolt for less than a month...condition very nice...the best thing that surprise me is the fork weight...quite light less than 2kg although the scale is not so accurate...maybe because it's alloy steerer...the other things is...it's "white"...yea!! matched with my frame....

**info: SPINNER brand is a resources derived from ROCK SHOX technology after SRAM bought them..

Spinner Eagle All Mountain

Closer look
Lock out | All Mountain | Less than 2kg
Done the installation but I got one problem...the steerer a bit long n I'm out of spacer...the head tube n the head set can not be tighten properly...a bit loose...later have to find one...the fork can be setup for 90mm to 120mm travel by tuning the dail on the left stanchion...it is a one-piece optimized magnesium lower casting...the lock out function is on the right stanchion...the stanchion itself is 30mm...

Installation done...I'm out of spacer...
travel length for 90mm | travel length for 120mm
Sadly I can't test it at Bukit Cermin this 31th for the race...going back to my hometown...furthermore I still need to setup my DH wheel set...now without tire and 9 speed cassette...till we ride again after Raya...

Finally it' s done...(thx to Atan n Heero for the spacer)

my previous RST Capa T7A from HRXC...sold it already

Putrajaya Critical Mass #5...with Merdeka themes... 22th August 2008


This month...Putrajaya Critical Mass was dragged 1 week earlier from the actual date....this is because the Malaysia International Fireworks Competition was held on that day the 29th...well for today isn't disappointed at all...100 riders where counted n been given our proud Jalur Gemilang (thanks to Mr. Heero for this)...Kevin owner of BBS also there...sory I don't know its u bro...although I just like 3 meters and share laugh with u all when u were taking picture with Daoh...


So the ride begin at 9.45pm...with our Jalur Gemilang attached to the rider or their bike...the roadies leading the pack followed by others...as for me...I again be the last man waiting for Ober to arrive...about 5 minutes later he came n quickly setup his bike...we pedaling fast to catchup with others...to pedal more faster..I switched bike with Ober as he tired pedaling his heavy bike...we joined the last group at the corner entering to Alamanda...

Adi funky helmet with 2 red horns...got bling!! bling!!
We ride slowly after that...ride and hav a small chitchat with 2 uncles...their wife with kids also...but then decided to catchup with Adi upfront...Again I and Ober switching bike to pedal more faster phase...gosh!!! damned tired ride a bit with 2.5 tire setup...Adi wear a funky helmet...very nice bro...He was waiting at the exit bridge near PICC with Wan...after catching our breath...Adi start cycling back..I n Ober follow him all the way...we rest a bit at the front of PICC (pit stop) then continue the ride...there some rider with punchet tire...then Adi chain got stucked near the bridge...We stop n I helped him a bit...he released it n we r good to go....23km done as we reach back to our meeting point...

Below some pictures that I "curik" dr Rudy (jangan marah bro..hehe)
