Firstly, what kind of bicycle do you need? (Consider the purpose of the car)

Many people want to buy mountain bikes as soon as they come up, with suspension, disc brakes, and variable speed... In short, they want to be cool!

This is not right. Everyone knows that what suits you is the best, and good steel should be spent on the blade. You should invest more in the areas where you need it the most. For those who have just bought a car, it is understood that their budget is around 2000 yuan, and for those who buy more, it is only around 5000 yuan. Since we don't have much money, we should focus on where we need it the most. If your usual application scope does not include sudden drops of at least 20 centimeters, then shock absorbers do not need to be purchased. What is shock absorber used for? What kind of shock absorbers do you need when commuting on paved roads?

What is opposite to shock absorption? It's just a hard fork. The following is a hard fork, which has the advantage of being lightweight, almost impossible to break, and much cheaper in terms of shock absorption. A hard fork worth over a hundred yuan is already good enough for you to play with. And a shock absorber that costs over a thousand yuan is just a facade without substance.

The following is a popular "front and rear shock absorber" for beginners. As an experienced user, you are like a dedicated filling pen for answer sheets - a 2-speed tester. So don't be surprised why encountering an experienced cyclist on the road and not greeting them warmly, who would ride with someone riding a motorcycle?

Another one is disc brakes, many people think disc brakes are cool, so they must be bought. Not afraid of your laughter, many experienced car enthusiasts are still using V-brakes in some areas. A high-quality V-brake is completely sufficient for an amateur mountain bike enthusiast to play with. You're a two thousand yuan mediocre entry-level vehicle, such as a Merida X or a Xidesheng, and you can only try to fool beginners as much as possible. It looks cool. In fact, it disperses the already small costs to various places. These faulty car accessories are disgusting to watch, let alone buy. The following is a typical example.

So the first step to summarize is: first, figure out what you want to do with this car, then look at what hardware is needed to achieve this goal, then see how much budget you have, and finally see which hardware you can afford among these.

Instead of saying early on that I want to buy a mountain bike with shock absorbers, disc brakes, for work use, by the way, I resist Japan and don't buy Japanese goods. Don't worry, your two or three thousand yuan old car won't have anything made in Japan on it. You're overthinking it.
