Good Day

Many Thanks

 

Jason

I have a SS with yellow tyres that could be loaned out/rented if the time frame is not too long.

Was looking around for a single speed frame and came across the 2017 Giant XTC.

 

How awesome would this frame be for a single speed?

  • Horizontal dropouts with thru axle
  • Boost spacing so you can run 27.5+
  • Carbon fiber
  • Brake caliper slides with the dropout so you don't have to adjust the brakes as chain wears

Unfortunately the frame is not available separately in SA. :(

Yoh, that is a seriously well thought out frame! Pity it isn't available here...

Ja unfortunately you will have to buy the entire bike, don't really understand why Giant SA don't sell them separately cause I am sure they would sell.
