  1. I just purchased a bike for AUD$380. Could someone tell me if I got my money's worth? The specs are below:

    [font=Arial] 19.5" Alloy Frame
    [/font][font=Arial] MOZO USA Magnesium Forks, Transarch Brace, Forged Alloy Crowns
    [/font][font=Arial]Shimano L-RS41L/7R
    [/font][font=Arial] Shimano FD-TZ31
    [/font][font=Arial] Shimano RD-TX30
    21 Speed

    My main concern is the Tourney components. I have been searching high and low on some info and could only find very little on Tourney. How does Tourney fair against other groupsets? Have I made a good choice in getting this bike? I fear I have bought a lousy bike. Please advice. Thank.

  2. i guess you get what you pay for

    my opinion is that you probably have bought yourself something good to start with

    i have started exactly the same way

    started out with a basic model

    and now i feel comfortable with my purchases given that its all i could afford

    but on the other hand if this is the bike you feel the most comfortable on then sure why not

    the reason you find much on tourney is that

    it is what it is basic

    not to be rude but i dont think lance or baden will find themselves at the local bike shop contemplating this addtion to their bike for very long.

    tourney are good enough to get the job done no more dont expect miracles

    overall youve got yourself a goodish bike for weekend stuff and there abouts id be happy with the amount of stuff that is there on that bike brand new for the price you paid where did you buy it

    please dont say ebay..................................

    cheers

  3. Thanks for the reply, Jeytown.
    I have the MG-400e Mozo forks. Are they good? How does it compare with other brands?

    mozo make decent shocks they have even made lockouts on one bike ive seen so dont be dissapointed withtheir build

    how does it compare with other shocks

    not too bad in context so i would not campare them to rock shox or the like
