Buying a local bike to cross the stans
I am planning an RTW leaving in mid May.
My route would be from moscow or keiv through the stans and then on to China to Tibet then Nepal.
If I can't take the bike to China, I'd rather sell it and try to buy again in china or simply use public transport to Tibet.
What kind of bike could I buy that I could easily sell in Almaty or Dushanbe?
I want to carry myself and about 70 lbs of gear. I'll have a full compliment of trekking/camping gear.
How much would I have to pay? How much do you think I could quickly sell it for?
