I like to ride long distances. I'm looking for a bike that would be comfortable and reasonably speedy to take back and forth along the Han river. I'm 6'3" so I need something with a large frame. I'd prefer to only spend 200k or less.

Does anyone know where I could pick something up for that price? I'm happy to put work into a bike as well if anyone knows where there's some open bike shops. I'd be suprised to find that they have those in Korea.

Hmmm, well it was worth a try.

Where do you live?

They're usually around somewhere close to home. The bikes are often not outside, so they're not always easy to spot. Ask a Korean in your neighborhood.

I just passed a large one across the street from Costco at Sanbon in Seoul. It was somewhere before the Outback Steakhouse. Several bikes were outdoors.

I live in the Gangnam area. I was hoping someone might have some bike shopping experience. Still any large shop might be worth checking out, thanks.
