Where can one find an Ibis? Is there an SA distributor ?

 

Been hunting for a second hand frame for a project build ( to this threads guidelines of course Renthal / Black on Black lol ) must say I havent seen and Mojo's or other ibis frames or bikes pop up.

 

Anyone know the frame costs on the Ibis Mojo HD or older frames?

I know a guy who may sell you a second hand Mojo SL frame. Medium.

I'm just spit balling here but last I heard 5months ago. Nomad for 9k from dragon. And what about a heckler. Don't know if they tick all the boxes?

Nomad for R9k? Must be KILLER ABSOLUTE COST deal on a frame that's been to hell and back. Last time I price-compared retail, Yeti and SC's alu offerings were VERY close to a full carbon Ibis. Going carbon on those adds another R5k - R7k.

 

And then you still don't have an Ibis!

 

...or... it's one of these Nomads

Zerode were meant to be working on a Trail bike from about middle of next year ... wonder if they have started ... actually I will find out and post here.

Ok, Rod from Zerode has developed a prototype for his trail bike that is ready for tooling and fabrication setup phase ... just needs to get the funding up and running to get this project mobilised!

WANT

http://brimages.bikeboardmedia.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Commencal-Meta-Hardtail-HT-AM-600x400.jpg

Long travel hardtails will always appeal to a certain crowd and after throwing your leg over one you’ll understand. The Commencal Meta HT touts 140mm of travel in the front and sports 650B wheels. The bike pictured has everything you need to get out there and retails for $2,699.

Awesome that he rides ghetto tubeless!

 

He's been doing that all season and I just wonder why ?

There is no weight saving and it surely cant be a cost thing.

 

Did he lose a bet at the beginning of the season or something .. :D

Looks like it's not a tubeless rim. It's fitted with eyelets to increase stregth around the spoke-holes, so the ghetto is probably a necessity.

Any idea on price ?

I couldn't say, but it is an older frame - straight steerer.

 

PM me and I'll put you in touch with him.

I know that I couldn't find a tubeless kit to fit my rims. So went ghetto
