I want to get a second hand mountain bike. I am not a bike person but i want to start exercising to keep fit plus i need to loose a few Kgs.
What should i look for in a second hand bike? The one i have located is going for 10K and is 26 inch. Am only buying it for the price. It has disk brakes and some fancy gears.
pia mimi nimekua nikifikiria hii maneno sana. something to make me sweat for atleast 2 hrs hivi. Nikiendelea hivi hata threshold itakua shida.
Kuna poa ya 15K. Ata mimi nataka kupunguza.
Give it a test ride and make sure it moves smoothly. And that the gears actually change
It’s been a long time since I rode a bike. However, the bike is used on a daily basis. though not sure about the gears.
What else can one look for? And can one repaint it kama gari? Coz iko well used.
yea you can repaint it however you like!
Does brand matter? Spares? What wears out fast? Servicing? You can tell am a novice when it comes to bikes
Budget ndio huongea. I would have adviced uongeze pesa kidogo and get your moneys worth!, @Meria Mata na @Gio ongezeni advice hapa
Kindly Advice where I can acquire one over the weekend…hata kama ni contacts hivi. mbisha nitaleta hadi za receipts.
consider Yangu ni ya kwenda evening ride in the village.
nivizuri ukiweka mbisha hapa tukwambie kaa ni bike poa au fake.
for 10k naona kaa hio ni bonoko but let me wait for the pics

hii sio origi but isokei for a begginer
there is a second hand bike shop in kasarani ama springvalley shopping centre utapata good deals hapo, which one do you prefer?
is that an actual tshirt?
The bike is almost a copy of this one. However, it is well used and the gears are slightly different because they are on the handle bar. I think i was told the rim is Mavic.
What are the pros and cons of such a bike and been that i will very well be a beginner ( its been long since i rode a bike)
