You might also be interested that they are running a promotion on Ellsworth for the Epic at present, where you get R30k of.

 

 

how does that work...do you only get a rebate once you show them your medal?

You essentially don't pay for your Epic entry and pay the normal launch price, or if you have paid it already, ASG gives you R30k off the lunch price of the Ellsworth.

 

I would still contact Hanco and discuss it. Perhaps they can offer you a deal.

Hi,

 

All I can say is that I have found ASG incredibly helpful and reasonable with pricing.  Are you comparing apples with apples in terms of group sets etc?  Also remember that Ellsworth is an American brand, which is built in the US.  Therefore, their pricing will be good.  However, if you are making a like for like comparison, remember that you need to pay shipping, import duties and VAT.  You will find that $5000 in the US is then not far of R100k in SA.

The new ASG MD of bikes is Hanco  Kachelhoffer.  Suggest you email him on hanco@asgsport.co.za.  Given his MTB pedigree, he really gave me the best advice possible, including more options with front forks, potentially putting on the new SRAM 1x12 Eagle groupset, correct sizing option etc.  You cant get that personal service by ordering over the Internet, and I do believe in any event, it will not be a significant saving in any event.

 

As someone who owns a whole range of bikes, the Ellsworth is definitely a gold standard for me.  The build and ride quality is just awesome.  When you compare the pricing for example with other top end bikes like Specialized S-Works, it is very well priced - even cheap by comparison.

 

I trust this is helpful. Good luck with the decision!

You obviously work for ASG.
