I am sure similar topics have been discussed previously! I am also sure that compared to what some bikes cost, R6k -R8k is quite low, but that is all I have. However, I really want to start doing duathlons, especially the more extreme offroad races. I do not plan on being a hardcore contender, I would like to do this for fun. What bike would you suggest? Softail or hardtail, 26er or 29er? What brand? Please help
