New Landy new life Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 I need to replace a set of RockShox that had a high speed accident but I don't want to spend too much as it is soon time to upgrade my MTB. I drove around to a few bike shops but most say 26" is rare to find nowadays and the classifieds also brought up nothing much. Those shops that did carry shox for 26" were upwards of R2,500 Because I have the large frame my steerer tube is 220 mm and only Bridge cycles had an old looking SR Suntour shock for R850 that looked suitable. Should I just get the Suntour or any other places to look in Cape Town Area?
madbradd Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 Cwc just had a sale where they had a bunch of 26 inch forks going for R500. Maybe chat to them?
New Landy new life Posted December 3, 2013 Author Posted December 3, 2013 Looked at those but the steerers were all too short
droo Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 Got an old RS Duke that you can have for R 500 if you like. 80mm travel, air sprung and 235mm 1 1/8" steerer. Drop me a PM if you're interested.
New Landy new life Posted January 1, 2014 Author Posted January 1, 2014 That Duke is so nice compared to my previose coiler.Specilly with a busted finger, made the pain riding far less than it could have been. Thanks Andrew
