negotiate something like this and you will never look back.

Might even get your money back after a few years when upgrading

considering the initial question I think this is probably the worst advice I've ever seen on thehub. So much of wrong.

And considering the initial question, there are only really 2 options. Well, 3 if you take a dip in spec. Trek Fuel / Giant Trance / Silverback

32k for a Newby!

 

Damn

Do you ride your trance more often than you do your anthem?

Normally both 50/50 but with Tokai being closed at the moment probably more the Anthem

I ended up buying a Trek  Fuel EX7 from Cyclelab this weekend, they had a sale and I decided on the Trek. Rode it on Sunday and so far I like it a lot!

 

Now I need a speadometer which doesn't cost me an arm and a leg. Fitted a Cateye for now but looking at a watch or speado which can also measure heart rate , any suggestions?

Shame on you. After everyone suggested a anthem/trance. Well atleast now you have room to upgrade to a giant!!!!! [emoji23]

I was always a Trek fan..... My wife told me there is a special on at Cyclelab, I went there and saved R5000 on the Trek.

The trek is a very good bike, make no mistake. You got a good deal there...

The best bike is the one you RIDE. The ones you talk about, think about or even dream about, are all totally useless.
