the avalanche is a good frame, rebadge na siya chucker 2.0, daming 43 bikers --those dirtjumpers at UP-- using this one

Hey guys...I just bought a mountain bike pero hindi ko sure if its a good quality bike and if it was worth my moolah, but I can still return it if ever. Just ordered it kaya next week ko pa makukuha. Heres what it exactly looks like:

# Hydro-formed aluminum frame
# Dual-suspension design with Spinner Grind OS1 front fork and aluminum swing arm
# 24-speed Shimano EZ Fire shifters
# Shimano Acera rear derailleur, Tourney front derailleur
# Front and rear Promax disc brakes
# WTB saddle
# 26" tires

What do you guys think? Should I keep it or return it? Sale kasi siya kaya ko nabili...50 percent off.It was the big discount that really sold me. Magkano kaya retail price nito sa Pinas?

estimate ko 13,000 to 15,000... not a heavy duty bike.

Mura talaga sa atin. Kala ko pa naman nasa 20-25,000 range na ito. Anyways for exercising ko lang siya gagamitin and light offroad, nothing too serious.

Return it. Get something at least Alivio level. Hardtail if you have to. Full suspension with low specs are very heavy!

Sir guess ko lang parang sa Target or K Mart mo kinuha? if yes return na lang there are many good bikes sa price range mo...get the Giant Yukon or Trek 4500 nasa 15,000 to 18,000 lang very good frame and components na.

Sa Canadian Tire sir (parang Concorde sa Pinas, but they sell almost everything) wala yatang Kmart or Target sa Canada,anyways sayang nga my friend was selling his slightly used trek at a discounted price pero by the time I got my moolah someone beat me to it.Full suspension and dual disc brakes din pa naman siya. Hindi ko lang sure kung US or China made siya.
