WeekendWarrior80 Posted January 29, 2018 Share The way I feel right now, life is too short to only have one bike. Does anyone know about the Trek Madone? to be more specific, it's a 2013 model. Thinking of maybe saving up for it, if it hasn't been sold by the time I have the moola. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CraigCCW Posted January 29, 2018 Share I've recently upgraded my Top Fuel 8 to a Top Fuel 9. Here it is at Hoogekraal. I've added the following to it: 1. Extra chunky grips2. Bontrager dropper post3. 28T chain ring. Who needs an eagle anyway? This mod was R12k cheaper for the same result. I haven't lost any top end and I can reach 45km/h easily. I'm still in two minds about how the Rockshox compares to the Fox that was on the TF 8. I love the remote lockout on the TF 9 though. And those saying that SLX brakes = XT. You don't know what you are talking about. XT brakes are so much better on fast downhills. They don’t fade as quick as the SLX ones. Where did you get your 28T chainring from? I have a 32T, and have been thinking about getting a 28T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeekendWarrior80 Posted January 29, 2018 Share That was/is a great machine...what is your budget like? I see Trek have a few models on sale from their 2017 range as well...Budget is 15k max. I've just been on the Trek website and I see there's a Trek Emonda ALR 4 going for 15k, might save up for that instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titleist Posted March 14, 2018 Share Where did you get your 28T chainring from? I have a 32T, and have been thinking about getting a 28T.From my LBS, but they had to order it as no one keeps stock of a 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisF Posted March 14, 2018 Share Where did you get your 28T chainring from? I have a 32T, and have been thinking about getting a 28T. Got my 28T from Knipe_Racing. Gives me a nice super low granny, for my bust knees ... Still reach 40km/h ... which is way fast enough for trail riding. Might want to go a different route if you need higher speeds for longer gravel rides Edited March 14, 2018 by ChrisF Long Wheel Base and Sidersky 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
