Hello guys,
for my first post I need some help deciding which bike I would choose best. There are two left between which I would like to choose.
The main differences are:
Tern Verge P10
full aluminum 10-speed, uses 53T chain ring and 11-40T cassette.
11.7 kg
451 wheels!
Chinese Sava
carbon frame and fork - 9,3 KG total
9-speed, uses a 53T chain ring and a 11-34 cassette (if I'm right)
406 wheels
There's also a version which is a 20-speed (53t/39t)
I'm going to use it mainly for fun, casual rides and short commuting.
Which one would you choose, apart from looks, and if you didn't have to worry about importing costs etc.. ?
Would you worry about the quality just because it is Chinese (no offence)
Unfortunately I cannot post URL's yet but I guess the bikes I'm talking about are known quite well.
