    The Kompac one would be bit delicate since its a folding bike. You dont want to take chances when your cycling downhill and alll

    I suggest try for Target or Rockrider from Btwin...
    Thanks for the quick reply

    But my whole point is to get a fordable bike and I could see firefox kompac serves the purpose.

    first MTB in my garage

    hi all. need advice on which MTB to go for. purpose is to ride in a mountain group ride in sikkim in october 2011 a two weeks thing over some good trails there. and next year april for the next major event lhasa to kathmandu a 26 days ordeal!
    have given it some thought n decided to go for either trek or canondale. saw someone mention canondale T 9 if im not mistaken...
    so just this much : which trek/ c'dale to go for?n is canondale somewhere avialable in bangalore/ hyderabad/ pune?
    uh im not a very mechanically gifted mind...so wont understand the jargon at least yet!!

    the black bike is the viper, the yellow bike is an imported one.
    thanx
    You must be the same psynide from BZ I'm guessing. Beautiful ride (the RM7). Dude, you should post some detailed reports on your freeride experiences on it. Would love to read them.

    Cheers,

    So that means i should save, and go for Mongoose fireball, right ?

    Can you tell me how heavy it is ?
    There's no detail about it online.
    mongoose fireball is aokay ! i have no clue about its weight, though one of my friend owns it. need to check wid him, prolly around 14-15kgs. if m not mistaken.

    Hello guys.
    Its my first post here in this thread.

    I used to ride bicycles a lot when i was in school, i was more of a stunter actually.
    I am looking forward to buy a very nice stunt bike, had my eyes on Mongoose Fireball 26, but its way too expensive for me currently.

    BMX is the second option i have, Schwinn and Mongoose one's available here doesn't seem to justify the price tag they have.
    I've also heard that Firefox BMX isn't upto the mark.
    Should i wait and increase the budget to go for the fireball 26, or grab a Firefox BMX (if available under 7k) ??

    Or any other option ?
    i think you should save up to get a better quality bike. its well worth it. if you go for a mountain bike, you can use it for commuting as well besides stunting, but with a bmx you can only do stunting, commuting on a bmx is kinda tough. so it depends on what you want to do. but go for the good brands, you wont regret it.
