Upgrade

Postby Tulbagh » Wed Aug 01, 2012 8:02 am

Hi There

If there is anything you would change on the Merida Big Nine tfs 900 what would it be. I'm looking to upgrade my bike a little but do not know where to start.

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks
Francois

Why upgrade at all? What don't you like about the bike?

There is nothing that I don't lokie about the bike but if I want to spend some money on the bike, where should I start?

Seriously though. How much you wanna spend?

Convert it to tubeless?
New wheels?
Dropper post?

Saddle and grips are always a good and relatively inexpensive place to start.

That's a pretty nice bike. How does it ride? What are you unhappy about with the stock parts?
