Gravity Sucks Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Is this possible?Preferably new. Merida , Titan preferred.Any references to bike shops that might be able to help will be appreciated.
DJR Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 R20-25 000, that's the easy part. Sub 10kg, that's the difficult part! I would also guess your luck will be better buing 2nd hand. New bike with good wheels and a top drivetrain is going to cost you more, or it will weigh more.
DIPSLICK Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 My mate just sold his bianchi methanol which I sold him some time back, he resold it after a year or two for R15k , it's def sub 10, new sub ten 29er I seriously doubt it

DIPSLICK Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Build a ss with a carbon rigid fork and its easy..True I forgot about that angle,my rigid Carbon Niner was sub nine if memory serves me correct
V12man Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 My steel str is a fraction over - and its not like it has weight weeny anything.... wheels built for a buff by a buff.. With like 3mm spokes 18k km and never trued - still perfect.
Imad Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 I will sell you my silverback storm white color full xt Carbon everything still original not one scratch on the frame ..I do more road .. R23000 pm if you are interested ... (It's like Demo bike )
outoftowner Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 I am actually getting very close. Bought a new Bergamont Revox Ltd for 20k last month- 10.8kg.(2x10 setup)Busy replacing wheels,seatpost and handle bar with new parts from Tri-cycles.(Cost 5k)Will manage to get down to 10.1kg incl.pedals. So after I sold the original parts,I will have a net spend of 24k. Dropping the last 100g will be a bit more tricky. It can he done, but takes quite a bit of homework. The advantage of the Bergamont frames, is that they only weigh 965 grams, so it gives you sone room to maneuver. Good luck
pellieg Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 giant xtc advance , with carbon everything else and 1 x drive train will weight in at 9.3kg so you'll need to look for something second hand at that price
Mike Bike Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Momsen SL929, am classic wheels, SRAM 1x11 kcnc. 9kgs. Way north of 20k new tho
