I think it is the S-Works Epic Carbon Disc... I prefer the S-Works Enduro SL Carbon when it comes to frame and rear suspension design...looks like it is more solid and that it was designed by KONA ...hehehe ( ok sorry that slipped)

mmmoukaay if you say so, I tried to find more pics on it .. what is it called, I am not familiar with the Specialized brand

kom boet! sharing is caring...

looks pretty.... but the shock is placed right where you don't want it...in the mud, or firing line of mud...

Ok, if someone gave you 10K to blow on a MTB (and you have to) would you blow it all on the expensive one or go cheaper and blow the change on stuff like shoes, heart rate montior etc,etc,etc....????

yes I am watching the www.BIKEBAY.co.za site a buddy of mine bought a real bargain there. There is a TREK Fuel 90 - 2004 but I am worried it is a bit old.

Ja ... so far RM4 vs Avalance disk1 and the RM6 against the Zaskar Expert....mmm cannot decide.... raleigh seem little bit cheaper, but then again I like the GT frames...

I am looing for a MTB under R10 000. So far it is between the Raleigh (and wear a mask) and the Zaskar Expert Disk. Any other Ideas ??? I am even thinking of getting something a bit cheaper for now - GT 1 disk for about R5600. yes/no/madness? I am battling to get Kona prices, as mine was stolen recently - any good contacts out there? FANX ouens!

Oom Big H, ek vind ou HOES se comment baie snaaks....iets van "bigh you ol fart" dit laat my mos nou dink .... die FAK het die week aangekondig dat die woord POEP nie meer mag bestaan nie ( te veel mense neem aanstoot), so die nuwe naam vir POEP is nou BROEK-HOES en die HAT word aandgepasanyway my punt is: dis vir my baie snaaks hoe hirrie jong laaities to te kere kan gaan om ne REG te kan wees.. dan gaan respek vir ander uit die deur of sal ek se^ in die regter baan in .....HOES ou maat, lyk my jou naam is ook bietjie verkeerd, ek sal jou maar van nou af BROEK-HOES noem want dit pas jou nogal Big H, ek smaak jou rustige karakter...lekker!

Windbreaker, I was wondering about your name ( and the way you speak to Big H) does Windbreaker imply the speed at which you ride or your level of flatulance? Any way good night, you really need to hang up-side down now and get some blood back into that thick bony part of yours....

BaieSukkel, if you want to live by African rule then sell you roadbike, grow hair on those smooth skinny legs and get use to a MTB, since TAR roads are not a big feature in Africa... Perhaps we can even fit your new MTB with those blue plastic wheels that one can fill with water so that your cycling escapades can be put to good use and fetch water while you are at it

BaieSukkel why don't you just get a horse with that argument...( and fall it like what-his-name?)

Naas Botha sharkie, Naas BOTHA!!!!!

sorry only one pic, and operated the camera while stationary at the RED robot. agreed 101, I 'ride alone on road, that way I am safer..in the veld I ride in a group

Well-well, was it not yesterday that we had heated discussions about cyclists being knocked down ...mmm and how roadies are not considerate and arrogant???mmmm again...so this week I am driving to work and was forced this morning to use the right-lane as a whole bunch of roadies have taken over the road in BedfordView. I took a pic to show you oaks how much consideration you really have for cars... I was also forced by the guy ( red arrow) to wait a few meters at 20 km/h since he was riding in the middle of the right-hand lane. There where only two lanes.....so guys if you get knocked down, what are the chances that you were looking for it?? I think great. The problem that I have is that I usually commute by bike and are now associated with a bunch of inconsiderate roadies who has NO respect for the OWNERS OF THE ROAD : Cars and trucks... You are squatters on the road, not the owners, as a cyclist you pay no tax to have it maintained....... I fear the day when I get knocked over by a vigilante who is just so G@Tvol of cyclists... So go ahead vloek me, scorn me, let's see how you justify this, and PLEASE don't tell me it an isolated incident - that will be the joke of the day Related topics https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=11167 https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=11149

Thanks for clearing the mud jedimaster (master jedi you are! aarrggg!!! ) the point is the arrogance, not the greeting/non greeting - that is merely a side affect of arrogance...(and people not considering other people)....sad to say, many innocent people get knocked over and these are the guys who make the greater public become aggressive towards riders...a MTB won't change your personality, but it will keep you out of the way of a taxi - that is if you dare to leave the TAR....

I think the part of swearing at motorists - that I can understand, the part I cannot is that those are usually the guys making the biggest noise when someone gets knocked down, another thing: - rodies are known to be bombastic and arrogant, I have yet to meet a roadie who actually greets you when you ride past him or her on a bike .... just an observation..... grow up guys and get a MTB!!!!! at least you will be safer and enjoy riding more. If it is tea you need and time to chat, then do it at the coffe shop afterwards, not while you are riding.

Ja nellie, ek weer die teenoorgestelde, groot geword op my dukwiel en twee jaar terug die eerste keer op 'n gelleende dinwiel geklim toe ek na die wegtrek kampie ry op die 94.7. dinwiel is vinnig, maar die ou dukwiel is LEKKER!!!!

Miss V,price range? A rockshock Judy starts low, and then the price goes up depending of what you want. Contact starclassic perhaps he will share some of his deep-secret contacts that he has... get you budget in order, add 50%(cause you are indulging a bit- just a bit) then shop. starclasic could give good advice on price and spec.
