ThePubSA Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Been looking at Diamondbikes that they have in the US for a while (Sortie, Mission, etc.) Who supplies them in SA? What shops would stock them? Only seen newer cheapie Apex, etc. hardtails (have an Apex from 1993 and wouldn't trade it for the newer ones I've seen in SA at all) Only seen makro quality DB's @ Mr Price.... the odd 1 here and there LBS.. wouldnt mind a mission and i mean McGarry rides a goose

(Deon) Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 I'd do her... Just cos it'd be an interesting experiment.I like it too. I'd only prefer the shock is turned around and fit to match the lines of the bike.. disturbs the designer in me Captain Fastbastard Mayhem and Brogue 2
ThePubSA Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Damn that's sexy!and looks really simple.. appears almost maintenance free on the pivots .. But ..just imagine that in matt black

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 How about this........ Canfield is beautiful... but it's not exactly enduro...
Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 (edited) Canfield is beautiful... but it's not exactly enduro... Depends on how strong you are............ This is still by far my favourite bike, also, technically, not suited to Enduro but just look at it. There's just something about it.She is a thing of beauty!!!!

Guest dilldesigns Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Saw these YT Capra bikes making news recently. Vicious colour schemes http://p.vitalmtb.com/photos/stories/2014/02/27/max_3_up_802611.jpg?1393538733 deviate, Beer4Recovery and remfactor 3
Josh0 Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 26" That's like SO 2012!!!! True, but this is Specialized's take on the new Enduro Specific 559 that just came onto the market. So it should be bloody good.
Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 I have to change pants every time I look at this frame... It's only $2799 for the frameset......... but you get the rear shock too:)
Hairy Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 It is amazing how far bikes and this thread have come. The opening pic on this thread was this bike and the closing pic on this thread is this onehttp://p.vitalmtb.com/photos/stories/2014/02/27/max_3_up_802611.jpg?1393538733
nolipoli Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 And Rockshox are making a noise about their brand new upside down fork......maybe we haven't come that far?
nolipoli Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Soon someone will start marketing URT rear ends as the next new thing... Or better yet - single pivot. ThePubSA 1
