  1. Any advise out there on what kind of MTB to buy? I have about R28000 to spend. I would like a dual suspension. I have been thinking about buying a 29er. I currently ride a BMC Fourstroke 02 that insurance is replacing. I like to race about every 6-8 weeks. During the week I enjoy riding hard but like comfort as well. I am 6'2" and weigh 95kg I have been looking at the Ghost AMR 7700 Heard that Bianchi is launching a dual in two weeks time. Any suggestions are welcome.
  2. Do you want to go in together? That way we save on shipping.
  3. Let me know if you want to buy together to save on shipping. I can help you.
  4. Super thanks! Will these work on this fork: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=27730
  5. I was using an exchange rate of 11.6. Do these come with the remote lock or does one have to buy it seperately?
  6. Sorry in rands that equals R4036 and then you add 14%VAT which is another R565. So in all about R4600! Free shipping 7-10 days
  7. I also weigh 94/95 kg and I will be buying the new Sid Team 2010 from chain reaction cycles for 348 pounds = R4450. Where will you buy yours? http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=25862
  8. Can anyone please advise me on how to determine what size frame to buy? I am looking at buying a BMC FS03 (Softail) My height: 187cm My inseem: 86cm I currently ride a 21inch BMC TE03 Hardtail. I think I should be riding a 19inch bike though! One formula I got from the web says to take your inseem measurement and multiply it by .65 which gives me 56cm. My tri bike was a 56cm. For a mountainbike they say to subtract 10cm which would be 46cm which equals 18.4inches So 19inches is much closer to the right size than a 21inch! My upper torso seems to be a bit longer, so that's probably why the guys at my LBS think I should have a 21inch. Maybe they are roght, but not according to this formula. Any thoughts to help me? Thanks
