It’s my first full suspension mtb.
budget is below 5K, upgrading from a polygon hardtail. Which is the best choice out of these options? For context, i’m going for small size for all these 4 contenders.
First pic: Polygon Collosus N9 2023 model, 3600 SGD but it’s kinda heavy at almost 18kg i think and the IFS suspension system has 36 bearings which might be quite a hassle for maintenance
Second pic: Orbea Rallon 2022 M20 race carbon with shimano SLX, 4200 SGD heavily discounted original price is more than 7K. Has lifetime warranty.
Third pic: Commencal Meta V5 ride (pyrite gray), 4100 SGD from QR cycles
fourth pic: Transition Patrol Carbon GX, 4800 SGD from Tiong Hin
