Usually, I see price starting from 300 (previous forumer says 200)..
From there, it's up to you how expensive you want to go..

Emmm, I cycle one way 20min for 5km on a mountain bike, and I think that is not slow. The fastest I can get is 15min if I am lucky.

The profile is not that flat, just a little bit hilly. But I have to cross a few junctions and traffic lights, and three schools.

You can get a decent bicycle for 200. Go check bicyclebuysell.com.

I cycle 10 km to work and 10 back. Not far at all after you have adjusted to the road and anticipated the traffic. Using a single gear bike for half a year now to work.

At my pace, 10 km = 20 minutes. Fastest I've been was 11 minutes. Smooth traffic, no stopping because all green light.

wow...10km for 20minutes...u must be damn fast...

10km for 11 minutes...ur average speed must be 54.55kmh all the way...

i can only do 10km in 30+ minutes...

Last time I cycle using my sister's mountain bike, took very long to get home. Because it is heavy(cap ayam mmg murah haha) and tyre so wide so too much grip on the road.

Second hand is quite good too. May I know your route or the place you are going to cycle? Traffic how?

yea....i know chapalang one also susah.

but i am new, and i worry that later buy so expansive one, like the mousqy mentioned, also RM700, which is a bit too much if later i give up

budget is around RM300 to RM400 only @@

i am not from KL, cycling at my hometown sungai petani. traffic is there but the road is quite wide hence shud be okay la

dato keramat to klcc is not that far. Too bad that the Jalan Amapang is one of the busiest road in KL and not so bicycle friendly
