QUOTE(SerioseCat @ Dec 3 2018, 09:32 AM) Guys, can I have some comments on this bike? It is 8.75kg with a 105 mix groupset. My first RB. Had few MTB, foldies, and a hybrid before. Does the brand have any bad reputation? Thanks. I think it's a decent bike for that price range. My friend got Camp Neon which is the model below it with Sora groupset. The Camp brand is in the same region as those brands like Twitter, Trinx...Specs: MODEL // Helium 105 R7000 mix » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «    |

Even if it is an R2 or S2, the price IIRC is around 8-9k equipped with the 105 and not necessarily the latest one.
The price difference between the 105 and ultegra is about 1-2k IINM |

hI all,
I'm planning to go into cycling, using mountain bike. 1) What brand of bike is recommended?..I'm planning to survey at shopee website 2) the rationale for picking mountain bike is because it has cheaper maintenance. Is this rationale correct? Facts: - Budget: RM400 and below, if possible, below RM200.  (I saw the model Garion at shopee, cost RM443, looks fine, recommended?)- purpose: to keep fit, will cycle it once per week, or once in 2 weeks. |

I'm sure you have heard of the adage, Cheap thing no good, good thing no cheap. You need to do a little more research into what is a MTB.

QUOTE(fastreader @ Dec 7 2018, 02:38 PM) hI all, If u service or take of ur bike as per instruction, mtb is more expensive to maintain. The fork maintenance is expensive.

And if he didn't ride it anymore, good RV. |
