Eto dati kong bike (specialized xc pro bike frame):

Then pinalitan ko ng Turner 5spot, eto na siya a few months ago:

Pero last month pinalitan ko na ang manibela at stem

Maganda magbike, mahirap lang maging addict sa upgrade tulad ko

Japan Surplus Collector here. Started out with 20" folding bikes then slowly got a few MTBs of my own. Our rides are mostly on pavement and with Philippine road conditions, it could feel like a trail sometimes.

Bought each for 3k then slowly changed tires to commuter (no "knobby"), replaced chains, cables and other parts when needed. All original shimano parts, One frame is steel/alloy (Rockstar) and other chromoly (Giant ATR). Absorbs vibrations real well - bulletproof steel durability.. Probably soon when i got the time and money i might get me a real custom MTB

Ang tanong eh ginagamit nyo ba naman sa tamang lugar ang MTB nyo? sleek tyres for paved roads fat tyres for trails/rough roads napakaraming bumibili ng MTB pero sa sementadong daan lang naman ginagamit.

I have 3 sets of tyres for my bike. One pair is for pavement, another is for intermediate (mixed trail/pavement), the last pair is for mud/loose gravel (knobby's).

Though, I get to use the intermediate much often. Pero madali lang naman magpalit ng gulong ng bike. :D

me using slick/commuter tires (michelin country rock) since most of the time i'm on the road (except passing a short strip of dirt road).

sa katulad kong di kayang bumili ng madaming sets ng gulong ginagamit ko mtb ko kahit saan basta't kaya ng tuhod ko padyakan, padyak lang ng padyak

tulad nga ng sabi nila punta ka sa cartimar. yung 20k mo baka malaki pa yan.
may mga opismeyt ako, bilihan ng mga bike, may grupo pa! after 5 months..... wala na.
sayang naman kung mag-invest ka ng malaki tapos itatambak mo lang.

Ot: yung matandang nagchechange oil sakin dito sa gasolinahan sa caloocan, sa taytay pa umuuwi. bike lang araw-araw.
