Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted May 29, 2014 Share I'm not one to brag, but it would only be fair to say I was her first. LOL!!! Fair point. That makes me the rebound guy. Something I'm not exactly displeased with, 'cos that means she'll be keen for a bit of rough-housing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iwan Kemp Posted May 30, 2014 Share With all this (below the belt) chatter about the bird, I think it's only fair for her to show her face butt here... Now let's get back on the Vipa topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJuice Posted June 11, 2014 Share Did around 220km in three rides, from district roads, small tar stretches, skills courses and our own "Attie-se-kwas" fit in to our weekend rides. The Vipa is awesome! First impressions, a good quality build, it feels more complete/together than my old 26 Sworks. Accelerate fast, really fast. Impressed with the whole layout of bike and attention to detail!Busy getting my shocks dailled how I like, no need for lockout rear!!! Feel suspension design is superior to my old Spez, just feels together. Opened it up on one rocky descent, awesome.Still getting used to the 29er in techical bits, turning circle the problem,only bad, but no fault of the bike.We build our own tracks, still learning, not so nice flowing and smooth like yours in Cape Town....Looking to change front tire, do not have the confidence to go into a corner, like with my Mountain King.Only have stills before our first ride. Will take more pics on route next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted June 11, 2014 Share @DJuiceI'm impressed with 220km in just 3 rides, you have "new bike fever" in a big way! Racing Ralphs require "faith" if you want to throw them into a corner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJuice Posted June 11, 2014 Share DJR not so much new bike fever,than playing catchup after sabbatical. Training during week difficult, overloading on weekends...hope all the years of training counts for something. Entered for Dr Evil,currently partner kills me. Vipa best decision!!!

DJuice Posted June 12, 2014 Share Quick recap: made a come back after two years of no activity...scene moved on with 29.I was strugling to keep up with my,way back then top of the range bike. Time for new bike, it was between Spez Epic comp carbon, Momsen Vipa and Cube AMS 100 super race.Was looking for something different and new, Momsen or Cube, but then went back to what I knew...did not get the services I was expecting from a concept store, my mind was made up! With the help of hubbers, I decided on the Vipa! More photos before our first ride, she is still unnamed... Still used to having to use small bottles to fit on frame,no need anymore.Dropped the stem a bit more from this pics, when position is fixed, will chop off steerer. Satisfied with the build, only upgrade looking for Truvativ Nior 40 carbon seatpost, currently standing on 12.08kg ready to ride,after steerer cut hoping for below 12kg.Could easily drop more weight with Crest Ti, XO cranks, but outside my budget, really satisfied with my Vipa! And yes she is hot!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
