Oldtmr Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 Hi. On every web site i have looked from the Silverback site to all local online shop sites the 2016 square is speced with a dropper post. But when looking at the actual bike at Cycle Lab it has a standard seat post. Is published spec only for europe?
lechatnoir Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 Or cyclelab swapped out the seapost Never! This is heresy!!
Jewbacca Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 Silverback is local, based out near the Cape Town airport. Why don't you give them a call and ask them how they sold it to CycleLab?

Oldtmr Posted February 11, 2017 Author Posted February 11, 2017 I will check with Silverback and post their reply
Camz Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 Speak to Robert at silverback. Hes a great help and always goes the xtra mile
Talk Wrench Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 I will check with Silverback and post their replyHi Oldtmr, There is more to the matter than meets the eye. The bike at Cycle Lab has a higher parts spec overall but at the expense of the lack of dropper post. The SA spec of the Square has SRAM X1 instead of the dropper equipped SRAM GX bike that you are seeing online. I hope that this clears the matter for you. RegardsTalk Wrench

Talk Wrench Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 Why must we always get ripped off,No ripoff, see the reply to Oldtmr
Phatman Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 Shop around, I see some bike shops have the GX and dropper post option available, and some sell the X1/standard post version only.
Oldtmr Posted February 12, 2017 Author Posted February 12, 2017 Hi Talk Wrench Thanks for your reply I understand your explanation and see that the price difference in shifter and derailleur is about R2K
