Nikolais Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 Yeah, the bike is old school - wanting to build it up for a while but gotta keep the main sled rolling before secondary sleds!!!
MXkid77 Posted July 4, 2011 Author Posted July 4, 2011 Thanks for the offers guys. Was able to get a Kona "Loner" from Maverick's. Now the hard part, with so many choices out there, what do i replace the Scott with????
Nikolais Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 (edited) Another Scott... HAHAHAHA........... The Gambler is beckoning!!!Glad you are sorted for a bike buddy. And it is Giba so it is not paramount that you have 8 inches of rear travel. Edited July 5, 2011 by Nikolais
patches Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 (edited) I say you should drive about 60km west (my estimate, forgive me I'm a vaalie)... you'll reach a sleepy hollow town called Pietermaritzburg. Speak to the locals and ask them for some of their finest ale.... I mean bicycle! There is one that they call 'Cannibal'... or Izimu in the native tongue. I'm sure there are quite a few of these 'Cannibals' roaming around the forests there. I actually got mine from your village for a total bargain (R8000)... so I'm sure there are a few others around for a steal.

Grebel Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 yeah ... come race! I will be there... with my camera!! Not quite ready to hurl myself down the hill on my trail bike just yet!
