Word of advice, I charge the front one up before every ride, the battery low indicator comes on very shortly before it dies. Other than that they work great and the rear ones are quite bright.

Thanks, will keep that in mind. How long does the back one last generally? Obviously depends on flashing mode and such, or is it just safer to keep it topped up as I see no battery low indicator at all.

 

And agreed, just from testing at home, that back light is SUPER bright

I have no idea how long the back one lasts, I charge that up about every third ride. I think the light that comes on when charging might flash if the battery is low.

Nice kit as well. Killer ladies gear. I got (guys) Tee's, jerseys and shorts for a bargain. Now all I have to do is wait for some one coming back from up there.

How long did shipping take? I'm also considering bringing in some rims.

11 days including customs clearance. I asked them not to ship with EMS as our postal service is shambles. Cost $18 extra for faster shipping. Locally Linex handled everything. Handling fees and sars came to R750-00

Not a "new, shining out of the box bike", but a new bike to me. My first dual susser. 

Frame is a 2012 Scott Spark Elite alu frame with the standard DT Swiss M210 shock, with Rockshox Recon Gold fork, both 100mm travel. Not twinlock, as Recon does not have remote lockout function.

Drivetrain is Sram X9 crankset, with Sram NX 1 x 11 groupset. (32x11-46).

Wheels are Lyne Pulse with Vittoria tires. Brakes are Sram Guide RS. Saddle was changed out from the White Fizik as in the shop picture.(and alignment sorted....)

 

Must still go for maiden ride, as I'm currently benched with injured back. Can't wait to go ahead from Doc to ride again.
