Probably you have rich parents where cash is not a problem and probably your future has been drawn out properly with a lot of bonds tied under your name.

Do bear in mind, not everyone as lucky as you. Most of us got to work to earn wha we call hard earn money.

Who doesn't know ferarri is a chick magnet car? Who doesn't know my mom is a woman.

Do you know that, at ur age, u already seen what is China.
Many of us, don't even get to fly in an aeroplane... even though Air Asia promotes "Everyone can fly" even at the age of 30.

Go figure!

this is so true.
if cycle to work other peeps will say tiada standard

I believe in lower range bike frame, most are all about the same.
So, different brand, probably still produce by same company.
e.g. Giant.
But accessories... hmmm... to me, most of the items you will get with sub RM2k bike, are almost the same. Some will do gimmicks...
e.g. Merida TFS 500 Malaysian version which using XT RD... to show some bling on ur bike. But you know... this won't change much in term of your bike performance.

I paid RM2k+ for my Merida Matts 40. I got Hydraulic Tektro Auriga disc brake with 180mm front. But having Suntour XCT fork, no brand wheelset and chekai tires.
If compared to other brand bikes, at similar pricing, e.g. BH Spyro, you get Suntour XCM, alexrims, Quadro hubs and Tioga tires.  Disc brake? Shimano 575.

So... just be careful.

When want get.. look for performance parts. cranks 2010 deore or lower end Alivio... it actually doesn' really matter.

Hey guys, I might want to let go of my bike sometime in February since I will be posted in Africa for 4 years.............bike description is in my signature.....anyone interested?
