Buy Shimano BR-T610 V-Brake better and cheaper a lot. LOL

can name a few shop in klang valley that selling this spec at this price?

is the fork lockable?

haiz, no choice, I think have to find time to ask my bicycle technician friend properly regard using V brake with Canti brake lever. If put in, as long can apply some braking power, I will just cincai buy the RM10-20 China make V brake and be done with it. That old bike is use for slow casual Bangla ride lock everywhere type.

If I wanna serious exercise I got newer XT groupset XC hardtail for that, so no need serious braking power for old bike.

If you dont mind china/local brand can top up abit to RM1.1K-1.2K for much better spec.

try find Crossmac PSD6 or TRS hottest

Crossmac PSD6 (3x11 speed), body frame a bit small if you taller than 165cm

TRS hottest (2x10 speed)

Actually some china product even it cost cheap but actually it is good. But before that we need to try it out so still got risk out there.

dont mind china brand

as long below budget rm800

saw microshift brand for gear ?

is it good ?

i only know shimano

no shimeng or shimona gear pls

looking at something budget mtb like this

as long below rm800 budget

due to budget constraint

ask a few

all seems no stock

why ar

You know why? Bike in this price range are selling in large volume and high demand in market but low profit margin. This is why always out of stock.

Where is a good place to start for a beginner interested in doing Mountain Biking in Klang Valley? Any groups and community to recommend?

or because mco more tend to cycling ?

road bike may be still got lot people join but mtb are getting less compare 10 years before.

microshift is a good Taiwanese brand, the gear groupset should be fine.

But still if budget is limited I still think you top up pick that PSD6 bike if you can find one. TRS hottest also decent, i think the gear itself already half the price of the TRS bike haha.

btw,
TRS is actually local brand.
XDS/Crossmac is China brand.

Dont really need Raleigh brand at these budget.

oic, but still preferable shimano

would choose within budget of rm800 or below only

salute your persistence.

Recently got 1 bike shop selling cheap Merida brand new hard tail 26" frame old stock with only 1 size 1 color around RM3xx~Rm4xx. So with the left over RM400 you can simply get all the shimano tourney groupset and SR suntour XCT or XCM fork and those china made handle bar + stem + headset + rim + tyre + seapost + saddle + handle grip.

RM800 ride a world branded MTB is not a dream.

no budget ma, what to do, choose within budget range lo, just like buying handphone within budget

any link for the bike above ?

would prefer buy a whole new complete set at 1 go then ride

now start see some shipment coming in

hopefully the right bike come at right time haha

Option 1 - rm450

size: 26 - ok
suspension fork: - ok
speed: 21 Shimano - ok
Brake: disc front & rear - ok
Frame: high tensile steel - not ok


Option 2 - rm750

size: 27.5 - ok
Suspension fork: lockable - ok
speed: 24 Speed Sensah - not ok ( what is this ??? )
Brake: disc front & rear - ok
Frame: Alloy - ok

how much weight different (kg) between alloy and hi-ten steel frame?

what is Sensah gear ? good ?

that taiwan gear set is actually much better than Shimano tourney, it is even better than Shimano Altus,Acera.

Really or not? 10 years before Acera already equip with rapid fire shifter. How can beat it ?

I seldom direct introduce a shop because if anything happen later become blaming issue.

Sometime you need to find out yourself. I just provide another alternative suggestion so that you can explore more on it and make use the budget you have to get the best deal for it. Good luck.
