QUOTE(djay16 @ Oct 21 2013, 11:35 AM) Thank you for your answer, so when buying from hypermart there is a question of quality in that part might break quick and get wear and tear easily, also there is a lack of after sale service, also you mention that RM500 is the lower price bikes, i hope i understand these correctly Currently my intended usage for the bike it to ride to the nearby mamak to tapau or to the nearby park to play basketball, both are 5 min walk away, so in term of usage I wont be "biking" per se, will this kind of daily usage wear and tear the bike as much as you say ? Regarding after sale service, there is a bike shop near my place but they sell high end models, but will they service my bike in case of serious breakdown ? I've havent ride a bike in years, from memory the worst I had was the chain breaking, never did replace anything else, (i rode the bike for fun as a kid) RM500 is lower price oh my god... I might just drive then hahaRM 500 petrol last your for how long ? RM 500 bicycle last you for how long ? Do the math

QUOTE(incubus_skj @ Oct 22 2013, 02:42 PM) woo thanks for the suggestions! in the end settled for a tubular Croder RWT 38. About 1.38kg a set, with matte dark grey finish  looks nice enough, affordable and the shop in penang is an authorised distro so no worries about any problems liao. i think after this my bike already pass below the 7kg mark d  which shop and how much ?
