Rigardt@Scott Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 Very nice looking bike, lack of local support would scare me a bit though...........Well since there is local support for the shock, and the frame is alu - I don't think there is much that can go wrong... Yo-Yo and Steven Knoetze (sk27) 2
Yo-Yo Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 Very nice looking bike, lack of local support would scare me a bit though........... TBH CRC are very good with sorting warranty issues from abroad. I think of it as a buy direct model like YT just with longer to post it. The shock is available locally and you can always persuade the international / local guys to do the work here. The Frame is alu as GM said and in all my years of riding I've never had an issue with a carbon or metal frame new or second hand so I've never really thought about it that side of things. I imagine that if something does fail then I might curse my self alot though. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem and Steven Knoetze (sk27) 2
Hairy Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 After a few options, lots of decisions and much discussion I finally bought a replacement frame. 170 up front / 160 rear, RS super deluxe, 50% off. Thanks CRC. prod161857_IMGSET.jpgmany happy miles .... and the question others are asking RE replacement should things go wrong ... CRC will look after you, it may just take a little longer, or maybe even not given that at times local agents for "locally found" brands also have to wait for new shipments before they can resolve a warranty issue. personally I would not sweat it, build her up and have as much fun as you can.

BSG Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 (edited) I got this from the in laws today which they bought at a hardware shop in the UK. Clips onto the heel of your shoes. It has got a strobe or just light on function. Apparently 40m visibility with a 50hour battery life. Uses a 2032 battery per side.
