  1. thanks for sharing --- quite an eclectic mix! could have maybe gone a bit smaller on frame size for a FlatBar build like that?
  2. ok .... let's see those pics!
  3. pics or it never happened #ridefarr
  4. whoops -- we got ahead of ourselves .. it ends TONIGHT. some CRAZY DEALS still on offer too ( apart from the FREE DELIVERY offer ) 16g CO2's for R 10 each!!! 25g CO2's for R 20 each!!! cheapest in SA!
  5. sorry - the 1 we had "lying around" was sold. you can buy more for just R 3999 ( we'll throw in a FREE FRAME + HEADSET + AXLES ) on a serious note, we are offering these frame-kits at a below-cost price to move them --- they have been sitting in stock and we prefer to see them OUT ON THE GROADS instead of in boxes in our warehouse. besides, we need to pay for MORE NEW STUFF arriving soon ....
  6. for sure - we will probably do Carbon Forks if we do these frame-kits again, being a small brand, we don't get to "call the shots" at the factories and given our start-up status we had to work with what we could get. we are working on a Carbon Rigid MTB Fork - which is definitely something we are getting alot of requests for ... however, these are POST MOUNT almost exclusively ( if you want MTB axle to crown and tyre clearance ) so we are back to SQUARE ONE if you want to use on a Gravel Frame. as you mentioned - part of the F U N is doing something unique and different - we love seeing the various builds and creations using our FARR OUT CROMO Frame-Kits.
  7. Free Delivery Offer ends Midnight /// www.ridefarr.com
  8. not oversight ... very common at OE level ... do some checking, you will find it all over the place on entry-level/mid-level METAL GRAVEL BIKES. All the " big mass-produced boys " do it! when you go into CARBON, it becomes FLAT + FLAT ... easy to throw punches as " oversight " but we do lots of homework and to get a GRAVEL FRAME with butted tubing, thru-axles, internal cable option and taper head tube compatible at SUB R5k retail is not common -- the only reason we could do it is because they are being SOLD DIRECT TO YOU - no stockists or dealers who are carrying stock.
  9. My understanding is that Flatmount to Postmount cannot be done ... but Postmount to Flatmount can be done ... hope that makes sense. going forward we will do FlatMount Forks ... make life simpler for everyone. Unfortunately that will mean a change to Carbon Fork which will push price up -- hence the decision at the time to stick to Postmount .
  10. can't wait to see some of these builds. to clarify some regular queries we are receiving via e-mails: 1. bike can be run 1x or 2x - frame allows for both options 2. front is Post Mount so you need a Post-Mount Caliper - a FlatMount cannot work on Post Mount ... 3. frame can take 140 or 160mm rotors - choice is yours 4. we have various components in stock for these frames : seat posts , stems, handlebars , rotors, cassettes , saddles, bar tape etc. let's see some BUILD PICS

  13. a Cyclocross Bike is NOT a Gravel Bike .... #justsaying
  14. last few days to take advantage of our FREE DELIVERY OFFER ( orders over R 500 ZAR )
  15. flat mount works with 140 or 160 - Shimano has an adaptor that ships with their calipers and so does Sram I think. we have both sizes in stock now.

  17. we just received 140mm and 160mm rotors as well as 10 speed and 11 speed Sunrace Cassettes for customers wanting to do GRAVEL BUILDS.
  18. 160mm is Standard - don't think 140 will work - although depends on some brakes/calipers - but thinking aloud POSTMOUNT is MTB and that would mean 160mm.
  19. Latest Newsletter just went out - see it here
