Default What's a good and cheap bike-stuff to buy in Quiapo?

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)

Thanks for all the replies.

Quick question:

How much are they selling for a set of SLX crankset and XT crankset?

Pre mahirap yang question mo. but if were you, mas maganda mamili sa quiapo na maramihan. if you haev 2 to 3 big items to buy, dun ka na lang. Wag mo na rin dalhin Auto mo, mahihirapan k lang. better park it in SM manila then jeep to quiapo, wala ka nang aalalahanin, Enjoy ka pa sa window shopping
