Is MISSILE Good?

Depends what bike (mtn vs road) and are you trying to race or commute?  Its a china made bike, which is not a bad thing.  What components are on it? Cant go wrong with Shimano, but there are a lot of levels. Also, how heavy is it compared to another brand (like Giant).

Where is there a good place in Manila to buy used bikes 26 inch with shimano gears for anywhere between 2k to 6k...I need one both mens and women..

Thanks..

Try sulit and meet them in a common area.

If your in Puerto Gallera, have no idea as its a small market. But if you know someone in Manila, they could ship it LBC.

dont worry just go to any bike shop,dont mention price so you can get it cheaper!

Thank you so much. It looks good. I just wondering if the price is appropriate.

Then, how about this brand?

You never mention price so have no ideal if its a good value or not. For a cheap bike with ok components, would not pay less than $600 in the US. I would expect it to be more here. Personnaly, for a little more, would stick with Giant. Made in Taiwan, quality bike that will last a long time.

I do not know the price. Just accoding to the configuration, how much do you think is proper?

First is a road bike with entry level Shimano. Doesnt say what kind of steel. If weight is reasonable, say around 20 lbs, then $600 is ok.

Second is a hybrid, same entry level components. Has the correct alum tubing but should not be mistaken as a mountain bike. Say $450. If thicker tubing and MB components, then $600 as well.
