Craig501 Posted February 8, 2014 Share So I've just got to the UK and looking for a fun hardtail, spotted this Cotic BFe and I'm pretty keen. What do you guys think?http://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/1505826/ I have the BFe and love it. Definitely worth it! Only had a few rides on it, but it is my bike of choice for short fun rides. For FlyLuis, same photo posted in the SS tread, and will be updated on here once it has been pimped out a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

braailegend Posted February 9, 2014 Share Looks like the new on-one 650b bike, has similar rear welding as that Bfe at the top, although the Bfe dropouts looks much nicer! Also a cheaper option when looking for a steel hard hitting frame. Edited February 9, 2014 by braailegend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braailegend Posted February 9, 2014 Share No arguing about this bike's pedigree, shows skill is more important than Gears, Suspension and brand of your shocks: http://i.imgur.com/UYSoqzC.jpg http://fstatic1.mtb-news.de/f/qx/nw/qxnw4kgn276t/large_BM6I1264.jpg?0 Iwan Kemp, Steven Knoetze (sk27) and Sidewinder. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iwan Kemp Posted February 21, 2014 Share To be honest, if that Switchback had waterbottle mounts my deposit would have been on it's way to the UK already. Why you no have mounts?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about the Contraband Roguehttps://www.bikehub.co.za/features/_/featured/reviews/review-contraband-rogue-single-speed-r1185 Local product, only issue I see for you is the QR rear. Being in Cape Town, I'm sure you might be able to covince the David Mercer or the guys at Salvo bikes to manufacture/adapt the dropouts of the On-One or any steel frame to thru-axle. That's if you don't find something else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowta Posted February 21, 2014 Share To be honest, if that Switchback had waterbottle mounts my deposit would have been on it's way to the UK already. Why you no have mounts?! This can also be "fixed", but why would you want a waterbottle on a bike like this anyway? ThePubSA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 21, 2014 Share Oh, and I'd also go with Mercer, if it was my moolah... Custom bike. Just for yooooooo! And you'd be able to sit down with him and design it together. What's not to like!? (yes, I know this is appealing to your hands on approach, and mechanical brain!!!)

This can also be "fixed", but why would you want a waterbottle on a bike like this anyway?Don't mind a camelbak, but it's nice being able to jump on the bike without having to strap something to your back. http://v3mm.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Titanic.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
