  1. Friend of mine bought n new Cube a few weeks ago. Pretty impressive and tick all the boxes. UDH ; Sram Force 1 x 13 power meter incl. ; Carbon wheels ; one piece cockpit ; light weight. Not cheap (think R110k) but price very competitive in comparison with the bigger brands bikes with same specs.
  2. Should be advertised as a "code 4" thenπŸ™ƒ
  3. Are you referring to this? So the bike is a write off?
  4. Broken or repaired?
  5. Jip. The blaket even smelled like Staysoft...πŸ™ƒ Beneath the mud was a almost brand new Giant XTC (SL carbon lay up). Fitted with a Lefty front and full Sram XO groupset. Stans Crest wheels. He built the bike up (all new parts frame Lefty etc.) did one race and then realized he need money for his wedding.
  6. A few years back a guy posted a photo here on Bikehub (when we could still comment on the classifieds) of a VERY dirty / muddy mtb for sale. Everyone commented on the dirty bike and laziness of the seller to not just wash it and take better photos. I saw some potential and send n direct message to the seller. Ask him to wash the bike and send se better pictures. Turn out to be a huge bargain and very good connection. I bought the bike and still have it today. He even shipped the bike covered in a nice blanket... which my dogs inherited. πŸ˜† Moral of the story: sometimes huge bargains can be bought from lazy sellers...πŸ˜‚
  7. Thanks. Omnico does not haveπŸ˜”
  8. Very late to this partyπŸ˜‚. Long shot..but any chance you have one left.πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ
  9. How do one set the "" peleton mode"" ?
  10. What is the price of the previous generation model but with carbon wheels and electronic shifting? I think the newest generation starts on R70k for Sram Rival (New spec ~ one finger braking) UDH; Carbon wheels with DT Swiss hubs) and plenty of tyre clearance "Racing focused" tells me those stock alloy wheels will not be good enough after the placebo effect faded πŸ™ƒ
  11. Don't think a rating can be removed or edited like in the past (by users)?πŸ€”
  12. If you can, maybe try a different wheel set with your own cassette and rotor fitted.
  13. As it looks now, it might just be better to change the pulley wheels... to be able to fit belts available... πŸ€”
