Two sons, both are 1.3m++. They tried mv7 older model at nearby shop, looked ok. The seat was at low position. Then we ordered.

How tall is your son? The mv8 that I have is 1quite long, my gf at 1.55m can't ride it even when I shortened the stem to 70mm

Just to check, anyone know the price of replacing my cheap cheap mountain bike crank bearing? recently when cycling, can feel that the crank is not smooth and noise is coming out from the bearing area.

anyone can recommend 26inch tyre that can go faster than 30kmph?

currently on 26" x 1.5 80PSI but i forgot the brand of tyre already :(
fastest i go is 30kmph and pedaling faster than the gear can turn at 7 x 3 speed already.

More like you need to increase your chain ring size...

26 inch tyre should easily hit 32-34kmh. Maintaining 30 kmh with big tyres should be easy...

3X7 speed wheels are usually not smooth, changing tyres wont give you much edge but if you really want to do it go for 26 x 1.25 or 1.35 tyres..
