Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 uhhh did you mean the 750 or the 730?Sorry. My bad. 750
BarryH Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 It was the 750 but there was a bit of a misunderstanding. It was the 2014 model not the 2015 one. Very little difference in the specs though and it ended up at just over the R30k mark with tubeless conversions and transport down to Cape Town etc. The seller advertised on site here and is an proper dealer. Thanks to m Insurance (Western National) I am stuck without a bike at this stage.

Onlybikes Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 new silverback slider 1 seems like a cracker of a bicycle for the money
DanielJhb Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 Can't actually believe the spec on the slider 1 it kills the trance. Is there any advantage to the trance over the slider 1 other than maestro suspension?

Brawler Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 What is so great about the Slider? Only thing I see it has over the Trance is the fork (which is quite a big deal). Huge question is does it ride like the Trance? Trance is a phenomenal bike, can do XC or downhill on it if its equipped properly.
droenn Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 Didn't think the Slider 1 was going to be that expensive actually. I rode the test bike and enjoyed it immensely. I see components are different from the test bike though (think it was SLX throughout?) Has anyone ridden both Slider 1/2 and Trance 2 yet? Not really keen on those wheels that come with Slider 2
Iree Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 Personally I am nowhere close to the likes of being a top trail/enduro rider so for me the question about which bike rides better between the Trance or Slider will be subjective when objectively considering the better specs and price of the Slider as well as the positive feedback of riders who own one or who have ridden one. + the colour is awesome!
