Hey check out this site. I ride here in Busan and I am blown away by the biking here. I think there are some links to a bike shop on this page. Get in good with a Korean bike club. I must say the Koreans can sure ride.

There is a dogs bolloks shop near me that has all the top bikes in it. Not sure about 2nd hand ones though. Canondale etc etc.

Seolleung station. Exit 2. Walk up the hill,over a croosroads and walk down again to the next crossroads with lights. Turn left and walk about 80 yards and it is on your right. Takes 10 minutes total.

He has some nice kit in it.

Also next to Mongchontoseong Station (Pink line exit 2) - because of Olympic Park - World Peace gates" - its the hugest park in seoul - where all the "skateboarders, rollerbladers and cyclists hang out" and hence a huge variety of quality shops to choose from for bikes, rollerblades, and skateboards.......

Keumjongsan is an awesome place to ride. I live about 10 minutes away and the bike shop/club I go to is MR Mtb at the crossroad in Onchonjang just at the base of the hill. I ride Keumjong san pretty regularly, about 3 times aweek. Once you get to the top there are a lot of offroad/downhill possibilities. What kind of bike do you have Koreanlifer?
