Has been many years since my $800 MTB was stolen. Thinking of cycling again to cross train. Planning to cycle along the park connectors/East Coast/Changi Coast Road.

Would the $70 bikes from Giant/Carrefour do?

Alternatively, anyone with a bike to get rid of?

yea 70$ would work. just get the single speed, no rear-dee or front dee.
