Yeah, everything you mentioned is open.

Please post if you are doing it again!

Thanks so much for the detailed reply. Appreciate it. I think the points you make regarding what might need to be spent afterwards when buying a different bike is very valid. I will have to see if I can get closer to the amount he is asking. Seems like it is exactly the bike I need.

Looking for a medium. Will take a look. Thanks for the heads up.

Really appreciate the advice! Will scour the classifieds for the perfect next bike.

Great. Thanks for the advice. Would you look at the Silverback Slider 2 at all?

I ride trails during the week mostly then on weekends jump parks or downhill-ish tracks like Hellsend. Trying to find what would work for that combo. Hardtail is just too hard on my body.

Mmm, I would really prefer 29 or 27.5. But will keep it in mind, thanks!

Hey guys and gals. What would you suggest for an enduro bike on a budget of around R15k? I’m happy buying second hand.

Keen to help on a build day. I ride those areas 2/3 times a week (if its not raining and if it not closed off for maintenance). Would be tragic if I can't ride there anymore because of a small amount of people spoiling the fun for everyone else. So if anybody organize a build, please DM me.

Hahaha, yeah

This is my dog! He loves going on the trails with me. It’s great to have a companion and to see him enjoying the woods and nature.

Think this is some good advice. Basically what I did recently and got sorted around R6k. Problem was what came after. Helmet, gloves, bottle, tubeless conversion, tools, etc. —— 2015 - Silverback Sola 2

Awesome! Thanks for the replies. Exactly what I needed to know. Did a few enduros when I used to ride motorbike and found that it was a great way to see more routes, get to know a community and get better as a rider. Looking to do the Wellington (Dirtopia) enduro in May. If any of you see a newbie on a Silverback hardtail, please come and say hi! —— 2015 - Silverback Sola 2

Hey guys! Is there any use trying to do a local enduro on a Silverback Sola 2? Fox Float 32 on there (110mm). Not looking to get any results, rather just the experience to check it out. —— 2015 - Silverback Sola 2
