Hi,

 

Anyone seen or ridden any of the Axis FS 29er's, I'm in the market for a FS bike and the Axis bikes look decent and the components on the A-30 FS 29er would suit my needs for now. Well priced: Betw R9600 - R10500

i like the look of the bike and parts seem decent, not sure of the wheels though and if they are durable, at least they not Alex.

Hi Scotty - Kore website with details here http://www.kore-usa.com/

Thanks, i'm looking at their 29 HT which also come out with these wheels, they can only be better than cr@p Alex ones (Road and MTB had both, both suck for heavier riders). I see the top MTB Axis models also come out with them.

 

My LBS is listed as a dealer but i did not see any on his floor this weekend.

Is this not an on-going range?

Are the distributors not getting more stock from the factories?

axis is to Scott what Titan is to Merida right? At that price it does look pretty good. At least you know the geometry is more or less sorted. Recon silver up front is alright. Only real question is the wheels I suppose? For me I will wait for another two years before a new bike. By then the manufacturers would have moved back to putting Shimano groupies on their bikes :D

 

edit. I see the wheels are 2.5kg, which is pretty heavy.... At least the Giant ones are 500grams lighter...
