think they will sell u a polygon :p with a slight top-up.

Are u intending to lock your bike at a public place and go off for a long time? If yes, dun buy so expensive bike. Alot of thief.

Got ppl going around stealing bike and selling your beloved bikes to bangalas at 10 to 20 bucks. :o
Yeah, Agent Shoots, most probably you will be asked to buy the $290 Polygon Premier at C2C. An in-house brand from Rodalink... Not sure whether it's really quality stuff though.

just got back!
and yes, he did recommend me the $290 Polygon Premier :s13:
doesn't look too bad though, cos i'm looking for something really simple only

Kuniyo, did your gf get the Jamis? cos if she didn't, i might just contact the guy, price seems about right for my budget

Hey, Agent, just got back from that guy. Yup, I got his Jamis. It felt rather solid, much much much different from the Premier that I tried that day I went down!

Sorry man.. But perk up dude, I saw a GT Aggressor for sale in the togoparts.com's MarketPlace. Gun for that! It's good!

Hmm.. you'd probably have to mask any rotating or turning areas first. I'm assuming you want to do it using the least "painless" way possible? :o

The proper way usually involves stripping the whole bike of its parts, sanding down and removing the original paint first etc. But gotta be careful with sanding, especially with steel bikes since they have a special coating to give extra protection against rust, if I'm not wrong, before the coat of paint is applied.

Not too sure, you'd have to check around on the parts prices and then compare with how much you can get it from the US including shipping. :)
