Samurai Pizza Cat Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 Hey Peach how is the Spitfire I'm looking at getting one so need some feedback. Was thinking of the Rune but I think it's a bit much for SA type of trails.He did 80km on the Spitty yesterday. It's safe to say he's got no real issues with his bike.
Beefy Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 Congrats! Loved the spitfire during test ride. The Darkside is bit much bike for me tho. Love the colours!Where can you get a test ride? I wasn't aware that was possible for Banshee.
Samurai Pizza Cat Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 Where can you get a test ride? I wasn't aware that was possible for Banshee.A-Line had a Western Province demo tour in December....you'll have to visit Jo'burg for a demo now. You can contact Phia on phia@a-line.co.za for more info.
Peach. Posted April 28, 2015 Author Posted April 28, 2015 Hey Peach how is the Spitfire I'm looking at getting one so need some feedback. Was thinking of the Rune but I think it's a bit much for SA type of trails. LOVE it.If I had unlimited funds and had the choice of any bike I would get the Spitfire again.It can handle anything you throw at it and feels super smooth, even on JHB rocks.What I like the most is how playfull and well it jumps, It just wants to have fun. If you wanted a bike for Enduro and DH then the Rune would be perfect but yes it is a bit much for our average trail, It would handle most of our DH tracks fine.If you are doing mostly Trail/Enduro the Spitfire is perfect. He did 80km on the Spitty yesterday. It's safe to say he's got no real issues with his bike. Yip, even for an 80km ride the Spitty was great. My legs gave up in the end.
