Why Avoid Cheap Bikes?

Many people are lovers of sale season. After all who doesn’t like to buy things at reduced prices? Anyways, there is nothing wrong about it either. However, there is huge difference between cheap and inexpensive. People have a general tendency to mistake one for the other and repent later on. While ‘inexpensive’ implies that the product is available at lower price, ‘cheap’ raises doubt upon the quality of the product purchased. A similar mistake is made when people go out to buy bikes for different purposes but get attracted by the tag reading ‘cheap bikes Singapore’. In very strict sense of the term, cheap doesn’t mean inexpensive. It has larger connotations when it comes to shopping. Therefore, customers should be wary of getting misled by such advertising banners.

Here are some of the reasons that would justify remembering such a cautionary note before entering any bicycle shop Singapore. Quite often, the bikes that come cheap are largely compromised in terms of quality. You might get impressed by the price tag and the outer appearance of the bike but the actual reality will come out when you will use it over a period of time. Since these cheap bikes also come with their terms and conditions, more often than not, there would be no replacement and no refunds even when you are not satisfied by the quality of the bicycle purchased. Naturally, the possible option would be to go to the repairing mechanic whenever the trouble would arise. Hence, the maintenance cost required for these bikes is considerably higher than the others. These bikes are not really safe. Since the internal equipments are not of the highest quality, the bike may ditch you at any point of time thereby, rendering you utterly helpless.

The comfort question is of utmost importance. However, the comfort level offered by these bikes is not up to the mark. Imagine you are on your adventurous trip with such an uncomfortable bike and it ruins the entire fun of the journey. Plus, durability is a big issue. People do not purchase bikes every other day. They are meant to last for a couple of years at least. There is no point in investing in a bike which is not durable.

These are some of the negatives that must be kept in mind before purchasing a bicycle. Different people have different requirements. One must keep in mind his specific requirements without focusing too much upon the price. Buying low priced bikes is not bad but make sure that quality of bike is not at stake while making such a purchase. There are number of online shops that deal in affordable yet best quality bikes Singapore. When multiple options are available at the distance of merely a mouse click, why waste time and energy upon cheap options?
