Tankman Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Any idea on cost?By now, you know you can order from me! That Expert goes for around R10k to R11k. Had it in the shop yesterday. :D The Sport around R9k And the Race around R14k.(Estimated prices for now)
Tankman Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Might do well. With a decent paint job, that could look nice. While we are on the topic, what do fat tyres go for?Titan will be bringing in their own, waiting on a confirmed price.

Had it in the shop yesterday. :D The Sport around R9k And the Race around R14k.(Estimated prices for now) Good value that, might have to wait till later in the year. Do you have a list of specs? Link?
Ryanpmb Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Wonder what this will look like... http://www.on-one.co...ram-x5-fat-bikeOn One have updated with pics now... white wall cruiser tyres on their Fatty

Had it in the shop yesterday. :D The Sport around R9k And the Race around R14k.(Estimated prices for now) Geometry looks a mess - steep head angle, doesn't seem to be an offset on the fork and looong stems... Don't think it'll be too much fun to ride in reality on the trails...

It had me smiling in the car park already!
Ryanpmb Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Stick to your XC bike then. Snow, mud, sand ... is this bikes territory ... not a trail bike. It had me smiling in the car park already! My comment was suggesting that these Titans have a very XC like geometry... why would that comment suggest I ride an XC bike...??? Perhaps do yourself a favour and find out what bikes I currently own and have owned in the past and currently ride and have ridden before making assumptions... Pretty sure I know a little more about Fat Bikes than you... your ignorance has proved this already. Or better yet - do some research on proper fat bike geometries for yourself. And, some further research and you will learn that fatties are in fact becoming (and being built) into trail machines, commonly being ridden on trails of varying terrain...

Ryanpmb Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 You really represent your store/ brand well... I was making comments on the bike. You chose the personal route. I've got no problem with new brands jumping on the band wagon, but when you've got dedicated fat bike manufacturers that have been doing this for years and can explain every decision they've made re geometries etc etc, buyers should expect the same from these new brands. Not just a mass produced product trying to cash in on the bandwagon - as most mass produced products do I suppose. Again, you've just shown your ignorance. I meant no insult, was merely challenging your product. If you had an in depth knowledge of your product or better yet, a slight knowledge of the genre you would've been able to offer an intelligent response.
Ryanpmb Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Do you have the geometries?They're quite broad in this genre Flippa - ranging from 68 - 71 deg dead angles etc, with or without offset forks, BB heights playing a role etc etc. All depending on what the bikes are intended for and what the manufacturer believes is best. I would be interested to see what the geo's of the Titans are. And weight.

I would be interested to see what the geo's of the Titans are. And weight.Sorry, should have been more specific. I'm looking for the frame geometry for the Titan. Want to compare it to the On One, which has a more "trail" geometry. I've been quite keen for a fatty for a while, just need to be 100% certain on what I want.
Ryanpmb Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 I think he was referring to the TitansI know, I think so too - what I was trying to say was I'm interested to see the Titans too, in comparison to others...
