QUOTE(Seng_Kiat @ Jun 2 2013, 12:09 PM) guys, think you should ask the MTB guys in the other thread for their more expert opinionI am new to cycling and considering to buy a MTB bike ... with a budget of RM3k, what are the specs I can get? https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2717086/+820 3k if you want to include the basic accessories like helmets and gloves...would get you a very decent 10-speed hardtail with hydraulic disc and most probably an entry level fork with remote lockout i guess...but it all depends on the brand as well.. you might need to go browse around and see what suits you more... |
