    Hi all, I have just sold my specialized stumpjumper as I want to move to an Emtb. I am looking at a 2022 Trek Rail with the 85nm 625wh Bosch motor. Please can you confirm if these are good motors? It has just over 2500km on the clock. Thank you!

    Hi Everyone, I have narrowed down my search to the following 2x bikes new: https://giant-bicycles.co.za/products/trance-x-29-2-metallic-black-black?available%20colours=metallic%20black%20%2F%20black&available%20sizes=s https://www.specialized.com/za/en/stumpjumper-alloy/p/175253?color=300705-175253 I personally prefer the Giant in terms of the shocks and components. Which would be better?

    @JayLow thank you for your feedback.. The more I speak to people the more I am looking at a new Titan… My main trails are around Tygerberg and not huge jumps but I feel being 100kg and 6.1 foot tall I need some decent components with more than 100mm suspension travel but I am not sure and Im trying to stay away from X fusion components as I had a Silverback before and it just did not seem to handle my weight

    @PhilipV are the titans components being Rockshox etc better or not?

    Hi, thanks so much! My main question is, is Titan Racing good as I am not that familiar with it and would you suggest buying a brand new titan over a second hand Giant/Specialised for the same price? Thank you!

    Hi everyone, I am looking at buying my first dual suspension mtb bike. I would like to know your advice, should I buy a brand new Titan Racing Dash for example: 29er, dual suspension, dropper, rockshox etc OR should I buy a second hand bike like a Trek superfly, Giant stance or specialized stumpjumper. My budget is around 30-35k… Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you. https://bike-addict.co.za/collections/titan-bikes/products/titan-skyrim-dash-2024
