Hi guys. I have to buy a new bike as I outgrew my current mtb. I'm looking at a Silverback Sola 1(hardtail) and a Mongoose Salvo Expert(full suspension) They cost almost the same as the Mongoose is on special from R25 000 and is now R15000. I know it looks obvious that I should get the mongoose because it is a massive special, but I don't know much about full suspension bikes and in my area I don't need a full suspension, but it is actually cheaper bow than the Silverback so I don't know which one to get. More for a hardtail or less fir a full suspension that I don't know much about(it might be bad quality or not efficient for cross country riding..I also want to do about 25 mile rides on the road sometimes) Can I please get your opinion on which I should get and what would be most efficient for my area which is mostly all flat and a few relatively flat trails and also price wise? (Note: the hardtail is R2000 more)

I've recently started cycling again and need a new bike. I asked before but didn't get replies. I am looking at a Merida big 9 and Titan Expert 29er. Specs are pretty much the same except the Merida is lighter. What would be the better optionnlooking at group set?

Ok thx. I've definately got my mind set on the Titan, can't wait to start.

Can u guys help me out please? I'm looking at the Titan Expert 29er. 27 speed shimano shifters with hydraulic disc brakes and air fork frame. Is it a good bike to start off with? I am really into Titan bikes.

Sorry i looked at the wrong specs...I like the Titan's look a bit more. Is it worth buying it for the better looks?

The weight of the Silverback is 14.1 kg but the Titan's is unknown. Does anyone know it's weight? Does anyone maybe have some experience with any of these bikes?

Still deciding between Titan expert 29er & Silverback spectra comp, which shifters is better? 9x3 trigger shifter or 27 speed shifters?

Silverback is R9200 & Titan R11000.

Hi guys, i cant decide. Please help. Titan is a bit more expensive and has the better looks and specs but everyone says Silverback is better but it's specs isn't better...what do you guys say?
