Im building a bike(s) as a project. The spec below is for an entry-level hardtail for the weekend rider looking for a simple hassle-free ride. Please vote "yes" if you would expect a casual rider to walk into a local store and think this would be a good purchase against the major brands or "no" if you think the pricing is too high for the spec. Remember this is to be marketed at casual riders not familiar with brands or with any technical knowledge or experience. Please keep your objectivity on your responses. Constructive criticism welcome. The spec is as follows: Generic MTB hardtail frame, 7000 series triple butted. Think GT Avalanche quality. It will branded with my own name. Rockshox Dart 3 forks Full DEORE groupset including wheelset and hydr brakes Sunline bars, headset and saddle Other controls and finishing kit will be generic Michelin tires Target price: R14 950.00
