thanks, i've seen that place from the outside, will go check it out today

I would recommend this place also (it's near to the Yacht Club turn off, on the right as you come from the circle). It's a young guy who has it, and he also does very good servicing of the bikes, as well as carrying a broad range of accessories (don't forget front and rear lights, a good lock, and an air pump).

And a HELMET!!!!!!!!!!

Best shop on the island ( the one all the HHH bikers use) is Thalang bike shop

coming from Laguna you turn right on the main road in Thalang towards the airport and its on the left about 150 meters.

They have everything from 10,000 baht to 250,000 bikes!! great old guy there an speaks fluent English.

If ur looking for cheaper, check out lotus

There is also shop off of Cha fao road in town near the intersection across form the large empty shopping mall

I have a Prowell helmet, paid 1,200 for it, used it twice and will sell for 600!

Don't forget to buy a pair of clingy "show 'em all yer got" lycra shorts to go with the bike.

i just went to the place between the circle and the zoo. not a lot of choice really, just the giant rincon d which looks ok but i'd like to see more

i'll try the other places mentioned

Kata - cant rememebr the name, but has a decent(ish selection) plus he takes trade ins..... so maybe you can get luck and find a baragin. My friend got a full carbon Tri-athalon frame for around 20k

i found the beach boys place in kata, great selection

they have a specialized hardrock sport with front and back hydraulic brakes, very nice and feels comfortable

its a bit on the high end of my price range at 18,500 but i think i'll get it if i don't see anything else

There is an association that rents out a wide variety of bikes at Saphan Hin and also has some for sale.

Anyway, they have a little shop near the Central Stage Area, near the police box and the entrance to the mangrove walkway.

You might check them out too.

I would like to try cycling too, but from my experience driving a car here the cyclists are a particular nuisance because they tend to go at a very strange rate, something like a "no man's land" velocity that makes them hard to maneuver around. That said, it's amazing that there aren't more reports of cyclists getting hit by cars and motorbikes.

When I move to the sticks (Ranode, Songkhla) the first thing I will do is get a mountain bike, but I just don't have the nerve to ride one in Phuket Town.

As for buying a mountain bike, if anyone has a big one (I am 6'3" (189cm)) they want to unload second hand pls let me know.
