A) because I'm an idiot

B) because I'm an idiot

C) because I'm an idiot

D) because I've got a new frame coming for a different kind of build and I just can't ride 3 bikes. The Dee Dar was last in so first out. Also because out of the two options I have to sell this will be more affordable for potential buyers and also I know the Tranny 29'r will be a hard sell here in SA. 

E) because I'm an idiot

F) Also I'm heading to the UK in couple of months and will most likely pick up another one when I'm there as I know I'm going to miss it and regret it but need to free up coin for the new bike & wheel build now. By then I'll be bored of the new bike and want the Dee Dar back! 

G) because I'm an idiot

My blerry dog jumped against my bike and I hit the corner of the wall [emoji15][emoji15]

 

Can't really see in the pics but a nice big ding in the top tube.
