Mayroon ba tayong mga Tsikoteers na nahihilig sa bike at tuwing linggo tambay ng Malll of Asia o Macapagal .

[frenchtower]

I like road biking but I ride my bike elsewhere

[frenchtower]

OT: I don't understand why some people would buy very expensive MOUNTAIN BIKES and use it 90% of the time on paved road or cemented pathways? I just think thats dumb

[Batang Regla]

Ako bibili pa lang moutain bike.

Ok na ba yung vision 1.5 sa beginner? Ano pala yung hydro?

Yung cousin ko wala din alam sa bike nagtanong sa mountain bike forum. Ang advice sa kanya ito tatlo brand. gt, fuji, jamis- Ok ba ito or mag vision 1.5 na lang?

Galing kasi ako mindanao. Gaganda ng nature spot doon kaso mabato yung daan at pataas. Mas ginanahan tuloy ako bumili bike.

haha that's ok, i guess some of them havent tried trail riding yet. i ride mtb and also use it 90% of the time on cemented road, not because i have poor handling skills or dont want to get dirty but because you get stronger in riding on road, i use a sub20lb xc rig btw not a long travel monster haha

hydro? you must mean hydraulic brakes. all hardtails basically perform the same, pick the lightest. giant xtc, khs elite, and trek are the lightest i think

Ultra light mountain bike with slick tires, ok lang siguro if puro sa paved road. But then again, ultra light with slick tires? E di mag road bike na nga lang, hehe.

[battaglin]

Ano yung sram?

Sa mga pricing ng bike. Example yung vision 1.5 di ba around 10thou. Tapos meron iba brand 15thou. Ano usually difference pag nagmahal ng bike? (Parts being more matibay? new technology? lighter weight? or just brand lang.)

[speed unlimited]

Nagmamahal ang bike bukod sa magandang klaseng frame .Iyong group set
Group Set :
1. Shimano ACERA 6,500.00
2.Shimano Alivio 9,500.00
3. Shimano Diore 14,000.00
4. Shimano XT. 26,000.00
5. Shimano SLX 19,500.00
6Shimano XTR. 58,000.00
Kagaya nitong XTR madalas gamitin ng mga Mountain bike bukod sa matibay at subok na nila sa mga Terrain.
Galing lang ako sa MOA kasama ko iyong ibang mga ka Grupo ko insayo lang. Preparation para sa long ride . Ganoon na rin sa mga Nag trail. Kung may mga tsikoteers na nahihilig sa bike kita tayo sa MOA. THANKS.

SRAM, brand ng bike components na kalaban ng Shimano.

Salamat sa information ah.

By the way meron bike store dito sa araneta avenue. May nakakaalam ba dito ng bike store sa araneta avenue ang name iron bike? Kasi malapit ako dito. Kung ang pricing nila hindi naman taga eh dito na ako bibili. Kasi may nabasa ako sa quiapo daw pinapalitan daw yung parts ng mga whole bikes. Eh wa;a pa ako kaalam-alam sa bike eh baka mabili ko chop chop.

Kasi kung 500 pesos lang tinaas sa pricing ng iron bikes compared sa quiapo bike shop eh ok lang.

[speed unlimited]

Sa Iron bike iyong mga built bike nila marami kang pagpipilian Kung Mountain bike Merida Marami sila . Iyong mga built bike kasi kaya mura nila naibebenta depende sa group set na nakalagay kaya mura nila naibebenta. Malaki rin diprensya ng naka Hydrolic brake sa V brake .

My cousin went to iron bike yesterday. Nagandahan sa entry level trek 3700 model. Price is 17,500.

Magcheck pa kami iba brand sa ibang bike store.

May advise ka kung ano ok na entry level?

Napapaisip din ako kung bili na lang yung vision 1.5 kasi mura lang tapos bili pa ng dahon foldable na ang price 15-17thou. Kasi hirap sa mountain bike bawal iakyat sa gym. Iwan lang daw sa labas eh baka manakaw. Kaya napapaisip ako kung bibili ng worth 20thou up bike. Ang gaganda pa naman ng mga mountain bike ngayon.

Gulat talaga ako sa nabasa ko sa pinoymtb forum. Talaga may thread para sa nakawan ng bike. Kala ko kotse lang ninanakaw.

haha other riders like me who ride mostly road on mtbikes still like the comfort of mtbikes, must be my age hehe

kidding aside, its still safer to use mtbike, more agile, stronger stopping power, very necessary when you pass towns where kids run amok. I do long exploratory rides and you never know road conditions in the provinces

the price of the bike depends on alot of things, higher groupset, better fork, better cockpit, better wheelset etc etc..

in the end the main thing that affects price is the weight, the lighter the part, the more expensive and a lightweight bike makes a ton of difference

Tol , maganda na ang presyo niyan . Kagagaling ko lang ng Antipolo gamit ko trek Road bike at kasama ko iyong naka Scott na Hard Tail . Iyong kasama namin ng dumating kami sa antipolo Church 2 silang Naka Trek na Full suspension Mountain Bike at Nag pa bless rin sila ng bike. Mahal ang mga Accessories ng Bontrager.
Iyong sa Road bike kasi dapat tama size sa iyo kung hindi masakit sa katawan pag long drive na . Sa likod at sa leeg .
Dapat sa Road bike may alloance na 1 Inches sa bataya pag nakatayo ka .Sa M.Bike dapat mga 3 inches allowance ..Top tube sukat nito hangang sa floor.
