nice bike nice ride bro..👍
Did you use Turbo all the time ?
@@alfa-ql5wn Yeap turbo all the way except for about 2 mins in the first Magic Carpet trail. This is turbo plus pushing it on the climbs. 😄
Another sick video … awesome ride . Tks for the video
Thanks man! What an eventful day! That spider freaked me out a lil 🤣
Nice trail!
Thank you my friend! All thanks to ScarFox for maintaining and creating such a fantastic trail system!
i rode this a couple weeks ago while on holiday from australia, sick track!, hope to race it next year! Rest up dude!
Nice! Thanks for visiting our trails here! Perfect time to ride the DH trail is right after the DH race! Haha perfectly groomed trails
Nice bro. Im newbie here. Do u know any mtb trail around cyberjaya/nilai or nearby ?
@@myazriable hello! Go check out Putrajaya Challenge park. That one is beginner friendly and well labelled 😄
Still prefer to see you ride analog 😊… carry a spare batt bro
Thanks man. It’s always great to be back on the analog. I carry the wrong spare batt 😂 GoPro instead of axs 🤕
yoo sean can u ride the 4k trails this sunday very less people than like to ride in 4k compared with 2k btw why got a jaychou inside the video hhhh
Wah ur ears power can hear Jay Chou 😝 I play that song for climbing motivation. Climb from Salmon run all the way up to Kiaraberg need some motivation. Can, I’ll give 4K a go, but this weekend I’m riding dinding. So probably one more weekend. 😬
@@SeanTalksMTB hhhh alright 💯
yoo sean do you have ig? can we ride someday?
Stumpy looks sick with this colour scheme. 🎉
@@arrowhe4d thanks bro. I’m quite pleased with the set up. Haha
@6:00 we cleared the uprooted tree at Boulder around 10:30 AM (6/7/2024). The cut log was then hauled to the entrance of Boulder to form a makeshift bench. Sorry that I couldn’t do the whole Bunian run with you guys as the second half of the trail would be too sketchy for me with about 3kg of stuff on my left handlebar 😅 Thanks as always for the nice vid :)
Oh nice bro! U need a pretty big saw for that man! Haha I’ll give that bench a sit next time haha nice following you down Bunian for a bit, that Marin with Lyrik looks awesome 🤩
@@SeanTalksMTBwe used a Bahco 396-HP folding saw (19 cm / 7.5”) which is essentially the same saw as the Laplander model (23 cm / 9”) but for the horticulture market, fits just nice in my Osprey Savu 5 lumbar pack. With proper technique, possible to saw off even larger diameter trees with this solely, biggest yet was at Pure Quill (just before the exit shared with TNT). Got a Silky Big Boy 2000 otw for bigger jobs and trail days :) The Samurai FC-240-LH (24 cm / 9.5”) is also a very well reviewed folding saw (beating the smaller Silky models) if you are looking to add one to your MTB arsenal!
cool bike
It’s a really awesome bike man! Thanks
What tyre do you run on this bike
I got the Maxxis Assegai at the front and Maxxis DHR II at the rear 😄
Nice trails!
Haha I’m sure Arkansas trails are fantastic as well! But problem with Malaysia is that it’s often 90-100% humidity. 💀
Haha we twins!
Haha thanks for popping by man!
@@SeanTalksMTBGreat content! Keep it up.
link to bike?
You can get them at your local Specialized store! 😁
This is the Gen 3 Specialized Turbo Levo Comp Alloy.
Got link to gloves ?
Hello. You can get that gloves here. invol.co/cllcd2l
Great.Keepgoing
Thank you my friend! 😁
@@SeanTalksMTB ❤❤❤❤❤❤
👋😊
Hello brother! Thanks for coming over to this channel too!
so clean...
Thank you my friend!
My dream bike.... Still saving for it ..... Btw, This stock configuration ? I saw in website it comes only in blue bar indicator for comp alloy but yours comes with mastermind TCU 🤔
@@brianoh4605 hello. Yea this is the stock configuration. In Malaysia, the Gen3 Levo Comp Alloy comes with the Mastermind TCU which is a super good deal. In other markets it still comes with the older blue bar TCU. So we’re quite fortunate here. 😄
@@SeanTalksMTB Thanks for the reply and update .... Just double confirm again with their malaysia website .... Seems they updated on the description but not picture (still show old blue bar indicator)
@@brianoh4605 oh yea. So if ur in Malaysia, dun follow the website, the actual bike will use the mastermind 😄
@@SeanTalksMTBThe 2022 was only made in blue. The 2023 and forward comp alloy comes with Mastermind.
@@ebikesandthings models since 2023 only alloy comp model, turno levo alloy is still a blue bar! I bought mine in 2022 and got ripped off, paid high price for my levo alloy, came with rockshox silver forks and a very bad rear suspension! Wish i never bought now, 2 years on, and they are soo cheap to buy the more expensive models😮 all their bikes should come with the computer screen as standard
Keep it coming Sean!
Thank You Iqbal! Ride on!
such nice trials! Should make it an effort to drive up to try them!
Yea bro! Come give them a try some time. The trail system here is huge and I’m sure you’ll enjoy them. They’re mostly natural trails, so conditions might change from time to time 😃
@@SeanTalksMTB Thank you sir! Will I get lost if I were to be alone since I am not local msian? Cheers!
@@mtdtechh possibly as the place is quite big. But so long as you have Trailforks, you should be able to slowly find your way around 😄
@@SeanTalksMTB Thanks bro! appreciate it. ANY GOod/safe place to park vehicles thou?
@@mtdtechh yea bro there is. You can search for Faction Bikeworks at a place called Wisma WIM. there are ample parking space on the weekends. It’s guarded, so very safe and it’s RM 5 per entry on the weekends.
ay yo where's a rock garden when u need em?
Thank you for coming, sorry the trail has not been maintained due to the fasting month and raya eve please come again bro💪👍
Thank you my friend! Are you the one I met in the video? Haha I’m sure the conditions are nice now right after the race. Definitely will go again. Lovely trails. I won’t quit till I conquer Salma 🫣
oh that's my friend, I'm sure you can conquer Salma Gap soon💪
looking mint!
Thank you my friend!
Hey bro, is this from the GoPro or Insta360? Any screw on filters?
Hey bro. This is from the GoPro hero 11. No additional screw on filter 😄
19:35 Dude in front like "mou diu, I'm gonna continue pushing" 😂😂😂
🤣 he’s a strong rider. So it’s all good 😛
@@SeanTalksMTB Keep up the great work Bro ❤️
I just got this bike. It should be illegal, it’s too fun!
It’s amazing right! Get to ride so much more too!
Glad the chain held up after repair. Remember to bring an extra chain in the future😉.
Yea! It held up really well. I’m glad I met those OG riders. Really helped me out. I got it fixed at my LBS after that
@@SeanTalksMTB 24:14 Yea, that's me fixing it!!😉
@@Ro66y_C oh right! Thank you again! Pro mechanic haha
@@SeanTalksMTB No problem Bro, next time remember to cling wrap or store in mini ziplock the spare chain quick links. See you in the trails..!!
Hello bro, what bell is that? It's plays continuously, i suppose it's electronic? There are so many hikers and the bell is a huge saver! Btw, nice video.
Hello bro. Thank you! It’s not an electronic bell. It’s called the Timber! MTB bell timber with the “!” 😄
It’s good as a hands free option for warning hikers
@@SeanTalksMTB I was at Kiara last Saturday, hoping to bump into you haha... I am from SG. We have young and skillful Sean from Faction Bike as our guide.
@@bernardtan2398 wow nice! I was at Putrajaya Challenge Park last Saturday. Haha Sean is a super good rider! Hope you had a great time here!
I just cleared the SNL hanging dead branches yesterday..... Today it becomes like this again.... Is someone intentionally pull in down?
Yea man it was quite low. We should ride with a saw next time. To saw off those low hanging branches
Speed readings are wrong. Are you getting them via garmin connect or gps remote?
What model/brand is that handle bar??? Looks sick
It’s the Raceface Atlas in Kashmoney color 😄
On go3 use freeframe video biking 2 and 1440p 24fpsx👍
What is your bike Bro?
Hello. This bike is the Specialized Levo SL. 😁
2 screens! For what?
The one in the middle is my Garmin bike computer. For my HR and stuff. The other one is the Insta360 GPS remote that I’m testing for the X4. I usually just have the bike computer in the middle 😄
@@SeanTalksMTB pretty sweet setup for the garmin. My bike computer looks so big that seems like a freaking TV. All that only to see my wats or cadence. I regret not getting that sleek garmin even though it’s insanely expensive
Yea I like the smaller ones and it’s one of the best investments so far. I connect it to my axs to see my gearing. Connect my HR from my Apple Watch and speed cadence on my ebike. All my info on the screen.
Bro how do you put the speedometer,distance,slope degree etc all that stuff. Also can do on insta360 x3?
Hey bro. Yes can. But you need to get the GPS Remote from Insta360. Then when editing, just enable “Stats” and everything else is automatic
@@SeanTalksMTB i see. Thanks for the info man ☺️
This is also possible with Apple Watch and Garmin devices (through Stats dashboard and available in the app only for now) besides the GPS remote - many XC type MTB channels do this, it would be a nice touch to see your heart rate data when you climb Salmon Run/Upper Short@Lookout 🤣 The data overlay feature is discussed in the China Cycling channel
@@wsrajah I’ll try it with my Garmin next time. But according to Strava, my max HR after climbing Salmon Run was 177bpm 😵💫
Nice Video!...
Thanks bro!
hello again! Me and my friends will be going to Kiara on Sunday May 19 coming from Singapore! lol
Nice one! I hope you have a great ride there. Ride every trail yeah 💪🏽 haha
@@SeanTalksMTB If you happen to see me. I am riding Forbidden Dreadnought with bananas stickers on it. LOL
Awesome vid. Is that… the infamous headset creak?
Haha thanks! Yes! Time to get it out to clean 🧼
Thanks for the video, always enjoy watching them!!! May I ask what would be the least warm chest and back protector for our region?
Thank you! I think most chest protectors are warm especially in Malaysia weather, but something with good ventilation is important. My friend uses the Fox Raceframe Roost which I think is one of the lightest and most ventilated chest protector. The one you see in this video is the Raceframe Impact D3O which will be very warm at the back because of the D3O padding.
@@SeanTalksMTB Thank You Bro for the reply. I will check it out. Yes I had a Leatt with D30 and was too hot ha ha
@@nigelhagley8942 most welcome my friend!
@25:06 I think I see myself 😊 Stoked to see you clean Wasteland access @11:38, my riding buddies you said hello to @25:09 were responsible for patching that part - always awesome to ride through without dabbing. This is the camera review I was waiting for, X4 doesn’t seem to do well enough in low light (eg typical day in tropical rainforest under tree cover) as with all other current gen action cams. Was this recorded in 8K? Btw, wrong bike in title 😅
Haha thanks for spotting the mistake! I didn’t see you though. And thank you so much for patching up that slope. It was getting really rutted previously. The X4 performed really well, but thanks to our dark forest, I’m surprised that the footage still turned out pretty good. Most people can’t imagine how dark it gets inside until they really see it. The action cam does a good job hiding the fact that it’s almost pitch black 🤣
Sorry I didn’t see you. Would have stopped to say hi. Haha
@@SeanTalksMTBno worries man, I was sitting on the rock resting when I heard you guys bombing down and had to move my ass 😅 I didn’t see you too and only realised that you were riding the same day when I spotted the Fakawi Banshee jersey at the end of IUD DH
@@SeanTalksMTBI have seen some KZreadrs like VanCan mount the X4 on their helmet (like a unicorn’s horn where you can see the shadow thereof @4:55 of his X4 review) which makes for a very interesting POV imho. Seems like the DJI Osmo Action 4 is still the one to beat for MTB in low light conditions
@@wsrajahI think KZread jz processed the X4 footage with HDR. try it again and see if the footage is any better? Haha
Bro never had a super t pro...
Next time I bring you for a longer ride Bro. You missed the trail head at London bridge. At least another 5km ride with a jump line with big drop and few gaps. But beware of racket tails birds attack
Wah thank you. That would be awesome. A personal tour guide haha that line sounds super fun though
Looks fun my bro!🫡
Thank you my friend!
Nice! Was supposed to ride there this morning but…. Haihhh… laziness got the better of me
Thanks! You ride sg long a lot? Haha I do get lazy sometimes. But now I only get sat to ride so gotta treasure it 😂
@@SeanTalksMTB no. Always wanted to. Ytd was the chance. And I got lazy. Not meant to be
@@arrowhe4d oh got it. Haha no worries! There’s always next week! 🤭
where is senai peladang?
It’s somewhere near Sg. Buloh, Selangor, Malaysia 😄
We plan to go also
@@Gelo_arcenal nice enjoy your time there. But there is a race coming up there on the 25 and 26 of May. So do take note.
That gap… it scares me….
Haha yea scares me too!
