Hi Guys

 

I want to buy my wife a new bike and had a look at the new AXIS Ar-10-c full carbon with Ultegra group. Any reviews or comments will be appreciated.

True weight on the Axis AR10C is 8,15 kgs. Full ultegra, Ritchey Pro, Mavic Aksium, Continental Ultra Race tyres, fantastic spec for R16999.

Hi there,

 

Did you buy this bike already (Axis AR10c), looking for some advice, as I went into Cajees Cycles today & they were offering it to me for R15500 cash.

It looks to be a great bike at that spec, but am still in 2 minds about it.

I was originally looking at the Silverback Strela Concept, full carbon with 105 groupset @ R14700.

 

Would appreciate you view, as I am contemplating getting the Axis AR10C.

 

Thanks,

Funky, what kind of riding are you planning on doing?

Hi,

 

I ride once a week at the moment, every Sunday about 100kms, & then the races, Argus, 94.7 etc throughout the year, I currently ride a Raleigh RC 3000 with a Tiagra groupset, but want to upgrade, so was looking at these 2 bikes mentioned, also saw the Merida Race Lite 904 @ R12500, and the Giant TCR3 @ R13700.

 

My budget is around R15k, so still deciding, would appreciate your input.

Have you considered 2nd hand ?

If you enjoyed the raleigh then you would enjoy the Axis.

 

I would however look at something with new 105 ( which is great for your riding ) but in a cannondale,spez,bianchi etc frame

Wouldn't even consider the Merida. It has an aluminium frame and I think the Giant is most specced with Tiagra. If you can get the Axis for R15 500 as mentioned above, rather get that. You get full Ultegra and full carbon. The Space 2 as mentioned above is a damn nice looking bike and maybe you could get it discounted from the recommended price.
