Hi all, hope i'm asking questions in the right section. I want to try biking and search online and classified for a bike. If my budget is below RM1,500 what bike would you guys think would be bang for my buck. Currently there is a lbs who recommended XDS zero38 or nexus flame. What about the Raleigh elite pro? It looks nice. I did asked about RockMountain but the lbs says it's not a good bike. Opinions anyone?
*
read page 1 la.
At this budget, unless u are referring 2nd hand... go with the look u want. Page one got all the answer for you.

QUOTE(majorsinbad @ Nov 14 2011, 03:44 PM)
EKekek...wanted to say pound but dun wan to sound stoopid heheh...

oohh ok ...

For that budget you can try go to Johnny's at Bandar Utama...I think he can advice you ...and he wont rip you off ...

LBS who doesnt sell Rocky Mountain but only got XDS and Nexus  tongue.gif

Bandar Utama = KSH?


QUOTE(freerangechicks @ Nov 14 2011, 06:24 PM)
It's Rock Mountain as stated. I went to a shop up north and this sales rep was recommending me Corratec but it's out of my budget. The bikes I mentioned ranged from RM1,150-RM1,400. Elite Pro? Where can I view the bike?
*
Rock Mountain... also chekai one la.

Read page 1 and u will say ur budget now increased to RM5k.

Why every time I look at full-face helmets, it's so 'yeng'. What makes it more 'yeng' is when you wear it to ride and you actually doing it at high speed is just ooo-la-la~!

The frame design itself is outdated. It has too much pedal induced bobbing which robs you off the power. Heavy, and with 4" travel can't really ride hard. Something along the lines...

I think I better write another Guide for page 1
"If it is T Bolt... stop"

QUOTE(Sesar unjur @ Nov 16 2011, 12:15 PM)
i read the first page,but i got a bike dy,and im mentioning bout a particular bike.dont have much budget like u guys,maybe will upgrade slowly.i got it for rm900 from a friend,and installment some more.
*
Boss...
Your bike is still rideable.
But first thing you need to do...
Sack your friend who sold you the bike.
That bike was selling at RM900 for new ones 2 years ago. And he is selling to you at RM900 now. What a friend you got there. rolleyes.gif

QUOTE(snapshots @ Nov 16 2011, 01:42 PM)
t bolt it still a good bike for starters.i had a used one but wasn't long though. Some ppl can splurge some can't.all u need to do with whatever bike is to go out and ride...

Now.... Kiara 7 am this Sunday finish by 9.30. Chameleon make it sundaylah. I ride my "race steed"

True also ...at the end of the day its the power of your legs,your stamina and MTB skills ....when I was at a Jamboree recently...there was a guy using a fullsus Elsworth bike ...but he pushed his bike going down hill  shocking.gif

Isnt Stumpy consider a Trail bike?

If like that ah... better work as a kuli cos you need to learn how to work like a cow before you can be rich.

I like the irony of using a Specialized wheelset on a SC bike with a GIANT seatpost. Heck, you're just short of Bontranger to make up all the big names on your bike! thumbup.gif
That is called Rojak.

Really don't understand how it all ended up on 1 bike. Somore pedals also pawa!

Means you will most likely have a heart attack if trying to brake hard while cornering beside a cliff like this one  rclxms.gif

Haha, jokes aside its not that bad lah. Tested one before, with proper setting and maintenance its decent.  smile.gif

Tektro brakes are ok. Don't compare with RM1.5k brakes.
U can't expect a kancil to perform like a merz but both also can brake.

Whether it is Fuji Tahoe or Exitway or Nexus... All the same la.
Which one looks good... just take.

For the Fuji Tahoe pricing... 2nd hand is 2nd hand. A seller wanna get a high as possible... The buyer wanna get as low as possible. At the end... still 2nd hand.
Know ur new unit market price... depending on condition, 2nd hand price should be 25% or more lower than the new current price.

Not like earlier... T Bolt new RM900... 5 yrs T Bolt 2nd hand . Friend sell RM900...
