LOL .... to add to this, you are moving from an Mbuzi to the Spaz Stumpy ... I briefly owned and Mbuzi and then moved onto a Stumpy[emoji14]

Bike looks good by the way, best wishes on the sale ..... will give it a little thought :)

Yeah, wanted to try an xlarge frame, the stumpy came up in the classifieds a while back so I got that.

 

Xlarge just works so much better for me, don't know what made me think large was a good idea in the first place.

Like mine.. mine is like the one one the website

Nice. Richard told me that quite a few people send their bikes back there for a re-spray every couple of years. They do it for around R1500 I think. So if you get bored with black, you can do any custom colour as far as I know.

Another LOL .... I had a medium Shova ST .... also should never have had a medium frame .... should have been a large!

 

Next thing you are going to tell me you have a long travel steel hardtail hiding in your garage too :)

Yup, part of the recoating service includes bearing replacement.

 

My Sukuma was one of these factory recoating. But I chose I colour that the original Sukumas never came in (it was a colour the Shova used to come in). After the factory powdercoated it, I designed and cut my own vinyl for it.

 

It's a nice way to bring new life to ones bike.

Imagine buying a black one and telling people what you ride
