Chubba Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 How much would you pay?Well..... like most items I buy, I buy used. Let someone else take the depreciation. So if a carbon goes for around R40k used, I recon around the R25 - R30k mark.
Chubba Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 Frames starts at $1800 and complete bikes start at $2200That sounds cheap? That means you could land a complete bike for around R25k.
_im_from_earth Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 Does Morewood make a 29er full suspension frame?? Anybody out there know?? Sorry... haven't been 'hubbing for a while... Morewood do have some developments on paper at the moment, but there are other "projects" such as the Split Pivot designs that are taking preference for the moment. There is certainly demand, and it needs to be done, but there is opportunity for the formation of an entire platform around the Split Pivot designs, and this is most likely going to be where any future 29er full sus designs will be based.
koukie Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 (edited) Now this is a hot bike, this is the Ti one but the alu one is just as nice. Wonder what the price of the frame is, and weight? Titus Rockstar 29er Edited April 6, 2011 by koukie
SURFER Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 Ok thanks guys was just wondering as i am thinking about getting a FS 29er but im not to thrilled at whats on offer in the mkt besides the Spez epic which i cannot afford there is no other FS29 er out there that i like thats, within my budget. So i guess i will give it another year when the next gen FS 29ers arrive. What about Gary Fisher superfly 100 29er FS
The Drongo Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 http://www.santacruzbicycles.com/tallboy/pr/DSLarge.jpg Yowza! Now THAAAT is a ripper. Check how short the chainstay, and that BB drop. And that glossy red. EISH!
The Drongo Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 Gary Fisher Nope. Sorry Dude. That looks like a roadie on roids. Cruz wins at the mo. Try again.
Stevief Posted April 7, 2011 Author Posted April 7, 2011 So far its a toss up between the Cruz tallboy and the Rockstar. The superfly is to expensive and blingy. How much is a Rockstar?? The frame design on the Titus looks rock solid and the geometry looks good not as nerdy as some 29ers
rouxtjie Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Tallboy all the way...it's one of the long term reviewed bikes in the Mountain Bike UK mag, and its scoring well.
CAAD4 Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 I think Dangle wanted 12,5k for his Rockstar frame set, but has since built it up, but still a good deal if he still has it..
