Nope. The Scumbag

And apparently has a baby on the way?

The gnarly back roads post all the heavy rains in the Big Smoke.

Took an old carbon 26" mtb HT frame, fitted with 27.5 wheels and Bontrager rigid fork. Not pretty, but functional. Next will be the drop bar option and shifters.

Hopefully he is sitting in jail cell until then?

Had a similar scenario a while back. Bike Hub offer at half asking price. Excuse being CT based.

Here's another possible option if you can stretch your budget a bit. Theres always room for negotiation on some items. Hopefully other hubbers can advise. Norco Storm 1 (M) | Hardtail Mountain Bikes | Bike Hub

At OP. Does your budget of 3-5k include cost of Helmet etc or is it just for the bike?

Have a 330 lying around (not 530 as originally thought). Baking plate looks to be different, but mount is the same. Welcome to have it if you want.

What size bike are you looking for? Have an old 26er Cannondale advertised in the classifieds for 2500. Willing to drop to 2250 if keen. Size is medium. Here's the link: Cannondale F600 26 HT MTB | Hardtail Mountain Bikes | Bike Hub

May have an old 530 lying around which you would be more than welcome to have. Would just need to cover postage as up in JHB. Will let you know via DM.

Is this doable on a Gravel Bike? Can't find anything on the website.

Not quite today, more like late December. Had the distinct pleasure of catching up with this guy. Excuse the Ballie on the left🤣

A bit of fun between Cav and Valtteri: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DCXRXasy7oA/

Did this race in 2015. Vowed never to do it again. So far I have remained true to my word. Long may it last.
