What are the good buys in Quiapo?
My parents are flying here next month and I think it will be cool to get something cheap back there. Please make your list of fave bike-stuff and include some price for reference. Thanks a million fellows.

That's a tough question. Kasi ang daming puwedeng mabili sa Quiapo. Name it, they have it there. It will help if you have an idea of what kind of bike component/accessory you need.

I always like to have lots of spare parts like the following
1. locking grips, preferably, ergo designs, plain black 2. saddle bags 3. platform pedals, shimano clipless pedals, time clipless pedals, including cleats for the clipless ones 4. comfy saddles 5. brake pads for Avid Juicy 3 and 5 6. chains 7. quick 8. Shimano LX FC-M590 Crankset with BB 9. Shimano XT FC-M770 Crankset with BB 10. shock pump 11. 9-speed cassettes 12. 31.8mm handlebars (carbon fiber preferably) 13. tire valve covers 14. CF seatposts 15. CF stems 16. CF spacers 17. quick connect skewers 18. quick connect seatpost lock (not sure what they are called) Don't mind if they are unknown brands as long as they are good quality.

Madami niyan sa King's at Cycle Art. Andun na halos lahat. But if you want to canvass, tabi-tabi lang naman mga shops doon. Busugin mo muna mga mata mo tapos balik ka sa King's and Cycle Art. Value for money ka doon.

Meron bang makapagbigay ng comparison on the prices in Quiapo vs. other LBS like All Terra, Life Cycle, etc? Particularly for the more expensive stuff like Forks, Brakes, etc.
Don't care much about the spare parts since 100-500 peso diff would not be enough to go through the hassle of going to Quiapo (gas pa lang bawi na)
