Hi,
Any recommended mountain bike for around 35k. I am eyeing Merida Big Seven 300 2019 and Merida Big Seven 500 2018. I am also checking on Cannondale Trail 1 2016.
Any recommendation po bukod sa mga binanggit ko.
For your expert opinion.
Salamat.
PS: Newbie po ako.

If you're a newbie, I suggest giving it a lower budget and going for an entry level bike first. Baka kasi dehins mo magustuhan ang pagba-bike, at least when it happens mas madali magbenta ng murang bike at dehins ka pa masyadong tatawaran. If you have riding experience however and/or balik-loob to biking, a better choice might be to build a bike with your preferred specs in mind. It's hard to buy a built bike, mabilis ang upgraditis.

If you have riding experience however and/or balik-loob to biking, a better choice might be to build a bike with your preferred specs in mind. It's hard to buy a built bike, mabilis ang upgraditis. This was supposed to be my second bike. I have already an entry level Trinx bike kaso iniwan ko sa probinsya para may magamit ako tuwing magbabakasyon ako. When it comes to riding, I never experienced proper trail but i have an experience on rough/gravel road using my trinx bike and I love it (that is why). Bundok po yung lugar namin sa probinsya ko.
Sa build bike, that was may first plan kaso masyadong complicated kasi lalo na sa kagaya ko.
Wala po akong balak magupgrade. Base sa natutunan ko dito sa community na ito "huwag magpalit kung dehins naman sira".

if you're ok with 2nd hand built bikes, try checking OLX for good deals. one prerequisite when checking deals online is a good eye for parts and/or hidden problems |

Bang for the buck, can't go wrong with Giant. not to mention may official distro kaya wala kang problem sa warranty.
then again lifecycle din yata ang nagdadala ng merida, he he.

Based on research ko lang nalaman yang mga trails na yan tsaka yan lang pinakamalapit samin from Cavite. Never pa akong nakapagtrail and I have no biker friend either  . First time ko sana on any of those trails. |
