Hello all...
just moved to the Bundang area (40 mins outside Seoul) and I am in need of a used cheap bike to get me around for the next 9 months...!!
Anyone moving and looking to get rid of one ??
Anyone know of a cheap market or store that sells them ??
Any ideas??

Thanks Smile

New collapsible mountain bikes (can be taken on subway) = under 200,000 at bike shops.

If you mean really cheap, then stop at any one of the small neighborhood bike shops (if you live in a neighborhood you are close to a bike shop).

You can get one for 60,000 won. I bought one at the start of my contract: used it daily for a year (almost) and had no problems; new brakes a couple times, patch-ups from a head-on etc. Solid little bike though.

Cheapest ones at my shop seem to be around 200k...

I got a cheap one for sale.

Custom long seat-post (I'm 195cm). Hardly used. Foldable.

I'll post pictures if you like.

40,000.

I'm in Gunpo (near Geumjong station). I'll deliver the bike for a bit more money (gas is expensive) depending on where you live. Say 10 bucks to Bundang... or you can, of course, pick it up for free in the Anyang/Gunpo/Sanbon area.
