Finding a pushbike is eash and cheap. Quality is another matter. I have seen a couple of tourists on upper end bikes, but many of them are making the trip from S�g�n to H�nội and brought them themselves.
However in HCMC if you go on Nguyễn Hue there are a couple of places that have parts and that sort of thing. Also, out by the airport - I don't remember the street name now - there is a street that has nothing but bicycles. With a little persistance you might stumble across something good. |

Xe Đạp Thể Thao at 160 V� Thị S�u advertises Shimano componentry and their highest end mountain Bike was a Raleigh. Tel: 820 2239 Cell: 090 370 7091. This one also appears to be the place to buy parts.
Chử H�ng Xe Đạp at 148E V� Thị S�u had some fairly good looking road bikes.
Xe Đạp 152 at 148B V� Thị S�u Tel: 823 1580 had a Shimano Roadman, which appeared to be a fairly high end road bike and a Gitane ATV 250 for a mountain bike.
Xe Đạp Martin 107 was definitely the biggest shop at 107 V� Thị S�u. Tel: 820 3827 E-mail: [email protected]. |

does anybody know of the availability of purchasing a 250cc bike in vietnam and secondly, what's the situ reguarding taking it over the border to cambodia, which is obviously irrelevant if the 1st point is not possible, many thanks. |
