  4. Hi Erik, Tyre combos and profiles are only a small part of the puzzle when it comes to descending confidently. Frame geometry, suspension travel and dropper posts will affect how a bike descends far more than just tyres. If you’re on a budget, I’d recommend investing in a dropper post which will allow you to move around more freely on the bike, allow you to lean back on steeper descents or get into a better position for cornering. Second hand, they range from R1.5-4K depending on the brand. If you’re looking to take you’re riding a step further; then a dual suspension with 120mm travel, dropper post and updated frame geometry would be a great investment, but a decent one will set you back R30k-45k. Hope this helps 👍🏼
  5. I took my Slakline (160mm/180mm) to Morzine this July and I felt like any bike with less travel than that would be super harsh on my body. You can increase the travel on the hyrax with a different stroke rear shock. That’s what I would do…
  6. Took me a while to get it looking exactly how I wanted but super happy with how it came out. My Pyga Slakline, size large with custom red to black fade paint job, custom Ballistec Bike Armour Graphics, Raw Alu Csixx Derailleur cage and chainring.
