cyclenut Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 My Ridley Noah Pro has suffered accident damage. *cries* Unfortunately the Noah Pro frame is no longer available,I don't want the Noah RS (the model below the Pro at the time of my purchase),and the Noah Fast (the nearest to the Pro, has a sticker price of R50k - frame and brake system only) So, on a R30k budget, which frame would you buy and why? Bearing in mind, I like something aggressive (able to race) yet comfortable (good for the 200km + rides). where possible, drop in a photo with your recommendation. thanks for the shopping cart.
Cippo Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Colnago M10. Europcar's choice for the mountain stages. I would have said the C59 but that has a 40k plus price tag. Yes the frame is made in the East but shipped back to Italy naked for inspection, paint and assembly. quintonb, StevieL, Madlight and 4 others 7
Cippo Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Consider Sarto as well. They manufacture in Italy for Bottechia as well. Pm ti guy, as he was bringing them in awhile back. T-Bob 1
pista Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Cervelo S5 It's aero,light and comfortable. http://www.cervelo.com/media/images/S5vwd-DA-Di2-960x480-7accd43e-b7c8-4a99-a4ff-b52067a1a112-0-960x480.jpg
T-Bob Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Scott Foil? Killer bike, super stiff, efficiant and very racy, though not sure about the comfort angle on 200km+ rides. Apparently will save you 7-8 watts over a normal frame. If you have the coin in your hand then there are a lot of clearance deals on frame out of the UK (50% off).
Jakkals. Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Buy a SWIFT. the name doesn't need pictures to sell it. Cippo 1
