Odinson Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Damn! Imagine that - dropping R50k on your first MTB!
michaelmostert24 Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Scott spark 920 carbon, full suspension, great bike overall
michaelmostert24 Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Scott spark 920 carbon fiber and full suspension, 29er only the best for 34k then he can also buy the necessaries
Pooyan Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 I agree that the Pyga, Vipa, Santa, Spez is more exclusive but the best value for money I would say is the 2015 Anthem X Adv 29er 1 going for about R41 000. http://www.giant-bicycles.com/en-za/bikes/model/anthem.x.advanced.29er/19597/78193/#specifications

Daniel J Méssem Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Damn! Imagine that - dropping R50k on your first MTB!only problem is if you get the wrong one, for me that was an xc bike instead of a trail bike. Spent a lot less than 50k on the xc bike luckily, which is now a wall decoration on the flip side, a super stiff xc bike is fun too...
LukePurdon Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 How's about waiting for the new PYGA carbon dually? Can then build with the exact components he wants and you are supporting the local chaps.
maakaplan Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Yes, join the 54 000 other SC Tallboy riders in the WC.Remember to go Full XT as well, you need to be able to impress. ai.jealous much..........
nolipoli Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 I don't understand why people insist on buying XC racing bikes when they are recreational riders. It would be like getting a Lamborghini for your first car. Sure it's pretty awesome, but it's uncomfortable and difficult to park. Everyone that sees you stalling at every intersection will also think you're a tool. Rather get a bike that is a little friendlier to your skillset, and a lot more comfortable to ride - a BMW if you will. I don't know what brands tickle you, but consider a light trail bike for its comfort and forgiveness. It won't give up much on the climbs but will give back much more in terms of happy riding.
