Thanks, she's a beaut and rides like a dream. Pity my legs cannot do justice to her at this stage.

 

My claim went without any hitches. Took just on a week before they paid my claim in full, and I had my "Claims Card" in my hand.

Only issue I had is that my preferred supplier for the replacement bike was not on the list of their authorized dealers, but a quick phone call sorted  that out. They just checked on his credentials (that he was an authorized stockist of Silverback) and then the card was unblocked, and the deal went through.

 

My new bike and Garmin is also now insured by them, and my monthly premium went up by a few rand only, mostly because I increased the insured amount on the bike, Garmin and my cycling garments.

I grabbed a sweet deal this week and will go pick this up from the Spez shop in Umhlanga later today.

2016 Epic Comp FSR. Just been serviced, new chain rings, new cassette and chain, pulleys, brake cables and some small other items including new tape on rims all done by previous owner. Chap sounds like a stand-up guy, didn't want to sell the bike without it being in a great "ride away" condition, so had all the work done. I went into the shop to buy some MTB shoes and just happened to ask if there were any 2nd hand/trade-ins. They showed it to me in the workshop post service, job card still attached. The timing was obviously right and the owner kindly accepted my offer and she's mine now! Can't wait to fetch her this afternoon.

 

Moving from an entry level Silverback HT, I'm very excited.

Well done @Dom031 many happy trails. Makes me laugh cause how many times don't we go into a shop looking for something small and we walk out with a new bike ???? I also wanted to brag about my new shoes but it seems they are still making them somewhere in China since last year

congrats, and remember that red bikes are ALWAYS faster!
