aheem* one shot depends quality. No wonder sunway so popular for this, not steamboat!

siham steamboat very nice

where got ppl eat cooked siham.

Ya.. i alrd read alrd..

Just that there is quite some info that i'm not so sure..
So bring out and ask,

Seems like after reading, with my budget of rm1k, there is nothing much can get & nothing much to look out.
But then agan if i just need the bike to ride around my neighbourhood, doing some exercise, it should be good enough ryte.

good but no stim, if you ride because of exercise, you probably will give up within weeks or days.

If you do it because you love it, you gonnna do it again and again. and spend again also la.

see tongyam can run from pulau ketam to KLCC anytime

Either you stick with the giant/tesco bike or fork out approx rm1800 for a better bike. Any in between is wastin $$.

Yup, I see him also run!

back from ocbc ride liau hehehe

Heard it got cancelled?

Eh... unker Sith... My shifting not so smooth. Sent to Bikepro also not so powderful. Still problem... hence, now need 3rd party to look at.
U just got conned big time.
All the names above are all slaughter house. Kekekeke...
Especially the Bahagia one.
My first bike from there too. I used for 3 rides then sold off at 70% of the price I bought.



Wah... now got Ayam Princess, talk also like Ayam...

haiya ~ kne conned ~ lol

btw i think i wanna stick to 2 or 3 model of mtb and call shop from KL n Sel area ~ then the best shop that giv best deal ~ i will go there ~ lol ~

(my budget +-rm2k)

try search at BicycleBuySell aka BBS lots of 2nd hand good bike... just need to becarefull to deal online.. COD better...

Oh... Is it.. Meaning those that i saw at the Raleigh website around below RM1k is no good?
Like this model:
http://www.raleigh.my/bikes/bikes-or.html

But if i haven't started doing it, how do i fall in love with it first?
Belum cuba belum tau. mungkin lepas cuba hari hari mau

boss, mine is the Diablo Pro Raleigh, below 1k also, but 21'speed only la.
Planning to upgrade to 24 speed above soon.
Consider the most basic MTB u can find with a good package. I bought much lower than the price stated.

This is the tricky part...
As mentidoned in page 1... all MTB around this price are the same.
So, go for the look. You can sout around few shops then come back here and ask questions like
"If I wan to buy RockBike or Nexus Bike, where can I find the cheapest in Klang Valley?"

But strangely, not many of us know where to get these bikes.
For RM2k, it is the hardest range to decide as it is neither here or there. If you go back to MTB Heaven V13... u will see me asking the same question. And I got no reply.
At RM2k, go for the look. U like, u take. Every shop has their RM2k range bike. All are about the same. After all, once you like the sport, you will keep none of the bike or bike component in your future upgrade.

Not to say not good. It is ok. Read page 1 and u will know. And as above reply... buy the one that pleases your eyes.

For both hikano and negisf, there is a saying...
"Poor man pays twice"
But in MTB heaven this got its continuation...

"Poor man pays twice, rich man pays 10 times more"

Either 21 speed or 24 speed... it doesnt matter. It will not make you stronger or your bike worth more.
In fact, 21 speed is lighter... theoretically.
Just make sure your biggest cassette ring has same number of teeth at those 27 speed bikes or 2x10 speed bikes.
And the front small one has same or smaller teeth chain ring as those expensive ones.
At the end, how many speed doesn't really matter. You just want the set up enables you to climb steep hills. How fast your bike can go on flat tarmac is really not an MTB concern...

thanks for the info, i will take note when i go home later.
How many "teeth" found on those let say 27 speed bikes? the smallers and biggest ring. (the cogset)
