SAGecko Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 I've finally figured out what that room reminded me of - the top floor of Cajees in Pineslopes! Bikes round about the same age too! That's so true!
LOOK695 Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Every part except the fork was bought off the hub from various hubbers.Nice pic. Where was it taken?
rvdm1 Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 I can add to this thread as well. A month or so ago I decided that I wanted to go back to hardtail from my dual sus merida 96, chose to go 29er because that is where the market seems to be heading and I would get better resale value on a 29er should I want to upgrade in a few years time. I bought the XL Silverback Vida 1 from another hubber to use as a donor bike, everything was in excellent condition and had hardly been used. Then I got this Mongoose frame, also from a hubber and also in great condition. All I needed now was a headset, some ESI grips and new cables and housings which I got from my LBS. A bit of elbow grease later and voila, my first mtb build done! So far I have done the 45km Magalies monster, full Bundu Bash and some spruit riding and she rides like a dream.
Guest Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Nice pic. Where was it taken? on a farm close to where I work. Dalton area. Lillienthal is the farm.

Lurch the stalker Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 My Specialized Epic, as well as my sister's Merida came out the Classifieds here. Her frame was also resprayed by Bogus off of here.
NotSoBigBen Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 If I could find a 29" full suspension frame at a reasonable cost in Howteng I would also be building a new hub bike but sadly ......
Beefy Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Frame purchased from Malcolm in 2012 and sold to a hubber
Patchelicious Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 Bought my first Fuji road bike as well as my current Spez Tarmac in the classifieds.
