i think that is tipping 4k if you get it from KH or Uncle Tan's shop...no wrong trying to survey there though...

outside, if it is available... maybe under RM4k...

Giant, Polygon, Merida, Fuji is the ones that is most likely making 105-mixed alloy bikes under 4k...

all this talk about 4k makes me think about this 110 inch 4K LED TV from CES... mmmmhhhhmmmmm....

Yeah, Uncle Tan even said to me back then that he priced it too low. LOL

But nothing wrong with Giant(A bit hard to find Doraemons outside though), Polygon, Merida or Fuji actually.

As for Tiagra and 105, from what I've gathered, most people who experienced both(the 10 speed ones) said that the only thing that really bothered them about the Tiagra is cosmetic.

The messy cables too but I couldn't care less & I am loving the shift indicators tongue.gif

Who cares, an uncle with a Shimano Sora beat my time in OCBC by 10 freaking minutes.

I dislike interval training but I guess I'm going to try that tomorrow, pray no rain

no internal routing is not a real problem... it's not a real big eyesore anyways...

actually... the cables becomes a place for you to hold onto if you are riding on the flats... sort of like an aero extension that is flexible...
