not bad! wag kang mahiya sa generic bike mo bro... as long as you enjoy every ride that you make, hindi ka dapat mahiya.. with proper maintenance, magtatagal din yan. =)
tama po si sir Jon Carlos, wag niyo po ikahiya ang bike nyo. A lot of riders I rode owned and used their generic bikes on the trails. So, why feel shy? Just enjoy the ride and smile. It makes the difference..

@xsc607

bro, as recommended before, bring your bike to the nearest lbs. have it tuned or replace some defective parts. if you wish to upgrade your drive train, ask the mechanic what shimano parts would fit. It will depend if you choose 9 or 8 speed.

but for the meantime, have it tuned-up and enjoy the ride.

ride safe!

May mga sira na ang aking cheap bike like the brakes and crankset.

If I have time, I'd upgrade these parts or transfer the parts from KHS bike and upgrade the latter.

I'd just do the upgrading one at a time. Pag nasira na ang parts.
