IMO, the only type of Xmart bike that would be worth the gamble would be some kinda single speed.
Something like the Mongoose Beast or the Mongoose Sinsure. Other than that, I'd be reluctant to recommend any multi-geared bike from an Xmart store.
+1 on this. Stay away from box-store bicycles. Go to your LBS (local bike shop) and get a few recommendations on decent bikes around your price range. In fact, just keep saving your money.
