Boast about your latest purchases here...

[Mopkop]

Thanks for some positive feedback on the Tere. I was trying to get some local feedback on it.

Giant is the way to go just purely for the aftersales support if ever needed. Chapter 2 doesnt have anyone in SA, so even just getting a Seatpost or hanger might prove to be a challenge.

 

Swift Uvox is around R22k, Giant TCR R21k, Chapter2 Tere R35k.

 

I'd really like something different, but mind says go with Giant.

For the price its a no brainer. I got my Tere for really cheap then 25k-30% on a Christmas promo      .

 

Id go TCR then only gripe is that they're all over the place. Either way you're getting a sweet build!

Finally, waited till I was 33 to get a car licence, because well hek I never needed one. Motorbike works lekker and runs on love and fresh air. These damned MTBs giving you reasons....

Congrats man! Those NP200s are probably some of the most practical and low maintenance cars around!

Lekker! The NP200 was the only small bakkie that I comfortably fit into. You made a good choice. 

I might like the Ranger, but to this day I still miss my Corsa bakkie. Many safe miles, hopefully your many years on a bike will have improved your situational awareness to be safe. I sometimes forget that I was also a young driver with alot of bravado and very little clue....

 

PS: You'll be surprised how far you get with those bakkies on bad roads when driven carefully. 

 

 

EDIT: Check where the exhaust exits, and make sure the front wheel is far enough away. Melting tyres is overrated.

You can ask Nissan to bend your exhaust 45 degrees towards the road.

Or get a screw on elbow

not sure how that will help!

Or ask Tinus at Muffler Inn to put a different end piece on it or to bend it. He is a mountainbiker, and after many years of taking all our trucks and cars to him he would be my first stop to sort it. 

 

But TBH, Reme could just load his bike on the other side of the bakkie, easy solution....

Best bike I have ever owned and currently 70/80 percent of my riding is on this machine - it was lighter but now at 7.77 I've found the sweet spot
