  1. Flip chip ? Ill go to a shop in the new year to ask some questions 😂 but yeah they look like proper bang for buck bikes. One nice second hand option available on bikehub as well. Wonder if it still has a warranty, its a 2020 model
  2. Also saw this that looked really good 😊 Correct if I say, if you replace the fork with a 120mm and the rear shock with a 190x45 then its exactly the same as the non rs model ?
  3. Yip Cyclelab Lynwood is about 15mins away. Solomons as well 😊 still looking at all the models etc but If I recall correctly the Titan Racing cypher rs Dash Carbon looks good 😊 Still figuring out all the small details, like the difference between the Rs model and non rs model. Will send them a dm, thank you.
  4. Yip bike buy is expensive and if you cant test it before hand then it makes the situation harder. Problem is I am quite far from bike addict 😅
  5. Been keeping my eye on Titan Racing Dual sus bikes for a while now, dont know what it is about them but everything I go into a store I always stop to have a look 😂. Quite curious tho, does the cyphers fit smaller or bigger compared to other frames ? I am 1.87 ish and was curious if I would fit on a L or would a XL be recommended? @Titan Racing Bikes but yeah might gooi my bike up for sale to try one of the cyphers 🥹
  6. Very good bang for buck! Hard to find a new dual sus at that price.
  7. cant see why not
  8. Drop @Jakes 001 a message, his knowledge is amazing when it comes to suspension parts.
  9. Wooow, I am so sorry to hear that. Now I know who not to use for insurance. Sorry for the loss
  10. I used a few shops before but after using Jaco from SGB Service Centre I never used another person/place before. Probably used him for 30+ jobs/services on forks and shocks. He does amazing work and he is a super honest person as well, which goes a long way. Going to drop 3 more forks off this week 😂. He is based in Roodepoort. @Jakes 001
  11. Hi Nick So you should remove your number in the description field of your ad and only leave it acquirable through the "PHONE NUMBER" block next to "SEND MESSAGE" and above "BUY WITH BIKEHUB PAY" , correct ?
  12. I mainly use Lynwood Cyclery
  13. Hi, drop Jaco (SGB Service Centre) @Jakes 001 a pm, hes suspension work is amazing. Maybe he can sort you out. Best off luck.
  14. Hopefully he doesnt win me XD, so I guess KK is really bad, is KK one off the last batches ?
  15. First time doing the 947 and my seeding is KK, also not sure what its means XD
  16. Bought chainrings and chainring bolts from Ali, received my order everytime, just took long. I must ad the chainrings were cheap. The power meter is pricey, If I was in your position I wouldnt buy it from ali. Just my thoughts
  17. Looks like a Trek
  18. I am currently own and using a set of Spank 395 rims on hope pro 4 hubs. But need boost hubs. ( I know you get boost adapter kits XD) I do xco riding so the spank wheels that I own is way to much for me lol. 395 external, 345 internal. So was thinking maybe it better to sell my wheels and build up a nice set for xco riding. But damn its pricey.
  19. Awesome thank you for the info I really appreciate it.
  20. I really did not know 400g on rotation can make such a big difference, obviously when you haven't felt or experienced it, its harder to understand but very interesting.
  21. Cool stuff, and whats the benefits of moving over to carbon wheels ?
  22. From what I have read online, carbon wheels are stiffer etc, but was wondering what a professional would say since they work with them 😋 never owned a carbon set before, so quite curious to know the difference 🙏🏼
  23. Thank you for the info, maybe a dumb question but is it really worth it spending 10-15k extra on a carbon set over a alloy set ? Whats the benefits ? one thing that bothered me a bit is the 3 year warranty 🙃
  24. What is everyones opinion on Nextie carbon rims ? https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/mountain-bike-rims/662562/nextie-rims-brand-new I see these are available.
