Salty Biker

Thanks for the help guys, bike sold pretty quickly. Hope the new owner has fond memories on it

Thank you

Good point, attention to detail makes a difference Slamming it made the comfort better though. Fitment was done manually by a guy named Alex Ferret at Cycle Junction in Richards Bay (previously Zululand Cycles). I feel like he did a good job Yes, planning on getting a 29er hardtail. For what it's worth, I'm 185cm tall and I feel like I'm on a BMX around other cyclists on 29ers Yes unfortunately there aren't a lot of people looking for 26ers, so I'm aware that I'm going to wait. With regards to scammers, ya I've had my fair share of bizarre requests/offers from selling various items on gumtree. Most people are reasonable though

Thanks for the replies so far With regards to the seat being quite high: I recently had a fit done by the bike shop and that's where my seat ended up being adjusted to. Feels perfectly fine for my body's dimensions

Hi all Any opinions on what my bike is worth? Thinking about selling it. It's a BMC Fourstroke 02, large size aluminium frame, 2011 model (I think), 26 inch wheels, full Shimano XT drivetrain, including pedals and cranks, DT Swiss XM 180 rear shock, Rockshox SID air fork with 100mm of travel, Shimano hydraulic disk brakes (not sure of model), SLX shifters and is a 3x9 setup. Currently has slicks on but have some knobblies for it as well. I have no idea how many kms I've done on the bike, but if I were to guess, maybe 3000 to 4000km at most. Was thinking I could put it up for sale for about R5000 to R7000. Is that fair? Should I go higher or lower?

Hi all I'm from poison city, AKA Durban. Been riding a bicycle since I was a laaitie and can't remember a time when I did not have a bicycle in my life. I classify myself as a mountain biker but I don't mind a cruise on the road or promenade now and then as well. Used to be quite serious when I was a teen but became more mellow as I've aged. These days I go at my own pace and enjoy more of what's around me Lekker!
