  1. Custom all the way. So incredibly satisfying riding a bike built to your measurements and specifications. David Mercer built this Columbus steel framed gravel bike for me, as well as a custom steel fork. I sourced the build-kit and Jared at BMC did the paint job exactly as I imagined. I could not be happier with the bike. I love it. Sram Apex 1x11 groupset with hydrauylic disc brakes Easton wheelset Panaracer 43c gravelking tyres
  2. I am finally a member of the Mercer owners club! Only a couple of (wet) rides in, but i absolutely love it. I am also blown away by how well Jared at BMC executed my idea of a left/right colour scheme.

  4. FYI for those following this thread. I just took delivery of a SRAM Apex 1x11 groupset, ordered from www.bike-components.de without issue in just over a week, and just had to pay the VAT on pick-up from the post office.
  5. He does. He runs the Black Spade shop/workshop based at The Handle Bar, Main rd, Sea Point.
  6. HI Rene. My partner and i will take your entry. I will send you an email.
  7. This is a great initiative you guys have started, and the competition is fun.
  8. Yes, lefty fork is just fantastic on the Tallboy.

    Yeah, great event. Really enjoyed it.
  12. These are great wheels, and the price seems good, considering they're 'ready to roll'. I'm gonna get some black ones for my singlespeed.
  13. Nice one. Burry and Sauser won in a sprint from Evans and George, with the Bulls team of Bohme and Dietsch in 3rd. 2;42
  14. Yip...just entered today. Riding with my Epic Partner who is coming down from JHB. Thought it might be good to first spend 3 days riding together before we do som for 8 days.
