Bos Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) Open mold bikes. Duran used to ride for Dead Rabbit and their DH bike is a Dead Rabbit.I've got a frame from the same Open mould company. Evolve also sells it and calls it the "Alpen" a 135/150mm trailbike. One year and 3 months in I'm very happy. The biggest problem untill now has been the Effective seat angle, which because I have long legs gets pretty bad with the 150mm fork since the frame was actually designed for a 120. I have Remedied it by getting a Pike DPA, with 120-150 and although I have not been able to ride it properly since being sick and now being on my way overseas for a week, I'm very happy.  This is the Evolve one, pic looks weird because its a small and the seat is dropped. But Its nice and light and I am yet to break it. Also, I have not bothered to service the pivots since I built it and they still run smooth. Edited June 26, 2019 by Bos Duane_Bosch and Hairy 2

You're either going really slowly or you're a mountain biking god! CdT85 1

ChristoK Posted June 29, 2019 Posted June 29, 2019 (edited) Hey guys and gals. What would you suggest for an enduro bike on a budget of around R15k? I’m happy buying second hand. Edited June 29, 2019 by Toto91
Bos Posted June 29, 2019 Posted June 29, 2019 If you're willing to go 26'' you'll be surprised what you'll find.Â
ChristoK Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 If you're willing to go 26'' you'll be surprised what you'll find.Mmm, I would really prefer 29 or 27.5. But will keep it in mind, thanks!
Grease_Monkey Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 Hey guys and gals. What would you suggest for an enduro bike on a budget of around R15k? I’m happy buying second hand.You looking for a long travel monster truck or shorter travel and playfull/nimble bike? If you want a monster truck there have been a few very nice Giant Reigns in the classifieds lately for around that price...
