I would like to buy a mountain bike with an aluminium (or other lightweight) frame, no suspension, good brakes and gears. I've had good experiences with Specialized bikes in the past. Where would be a good place to buy one? I live quite close to Seoul.

CEPHAS CORPORATION
507 MEGA CENTER 190-1 SANGDAEWON-DONG
JUNGWON-GU, SEONGNAM-SI
GYEONGGI-DO, 461-120 KR
82-31-776-0360~1

This is the corporation that handles Specialized in Korea. They'd be able to tell you where to find a dealer. By the old Dongdaemun Stadium is the whole sports establishment, I'd check around there for bikes.

I don't recall them selling Specialized, but the bike shop at Hapjeong subway station was one of the best shops I encountered in Korea. I bought a Black Cat mountain bike from them. They also carry Trek and Giant (in fact the shop has a huge Giant sign). If I recall correctly the shop is near exits 4 and 6.
