I got the last batch of cheap dwlinks, now dwlinks ish all sexpensive liao.
Mine is ironhorse, but they close shop liao.
I bought a Iron Horse Maverick II from a shop at Teck Whye at S$480 about 2 months ago.
It is my first MTB or the first bike I ever own. Now after riding for a while, was eyeing to upgrade to a better handling bike. Not that I have a lot to complain about it. Just a bit heavy for a old man like me.
Which company bought over?nvr close shop, company bought over liao
Hi all,
been doing some research on getting my mtb. budget is around $500 to $700.
does anyone have any recommendations besides the following:
1) Jamis Xtrail 1 / 2
2) GT Ava/Agressor
3) Scott (any models to recommend?)
4) Giant
I will be using it mainly for leisure cycling around the island, pcn etc.
Comments will greatly be appreciated

what kind of race? mtb or road race?
cos if you're talking mtb race, no problems should come out from a gt ava. it may be heavy, but the componentry and stiffness of the frame is pretty much up there. you could consider a Commencal Combi Disc though. Jamis is friggin heavy. X.X
just a couple weeks back, some dude from another cycling forum (SMBF) took part in a race at Kent Ridge (considered the most technical trail in SG) in his SECOND week of being offroad. he rides a GT Ava, near stock.
he got third place.
but if you're thinking of racing road, but am not sure if you'd be serious enough, i do seriously recommend the Polygon Helios 500 with its full Shimano 105 groupset. it's THE best value in a road bike you can find anywhere. except the Boardman Team Carbon which is exclusive in the UK, from that one particular dealer only.
ride safe!
right now, im doing long distance cycling on rented bikes. =\ been looking around for bikes... im considering doing road but it wouldnt be anytime soon since i dont dare to cycle on the road alone, yet. Where can i find Polygon Helios 500 and do you know how much it cost?
will i do much damage to it should i use it on surfaces such as pavement? haha.
Whats ur budget bro?
Jamis X trails are real good value for money plus the frames do look quite chio...
GT ava too common [ but yeah good value for money also ( Jamis cheaper ]
Scotts are slightly more exp..
Giant which model?
And see ur ridin style as well...
