Hi riders, I'm from an island in Malaysia called Penang, I owned this bike for more than 18 years, recently rebuilt to a 27 speed bike. The original fork and shock spoiled, leaked oil. Replaced with a Rock Shox Duke Race and bought a new rear shock from Risse USA. The rest of the components are mix and match from Shimano, Magura brakes and 12 O'clock lightweight CNC components from Taiwan.
