That’s a fun looking photo Duane...makes me want to go ride.

[Jewbacca]

Duane... Why are you pulling your brakes? You can't slow down while in the air!! 

[Bomberman]

It’s going to be a bit difficult to find a fork that does that frame justice at that price. Out of your listed options the Fox 34 might be the best choice. A Rockshox Revelation would also be a good starting point if you can find one at that price.

 

The cool thing about the Rev is that in time you can upgrade the internals and basically end up with a new spec Pike.

 

What wheelset did you buy?

 

Rapide TR29-30SL wheelset, they should do the job?

[Hairy]

It's difficult for people like you who only ever ride on the cycle lane to make proper speed assessments.

I don't even get to do that anymore

I believe the word you are looking for is covering. That's on the new up trail at Jonkers. So so so good.

Yeah those will be perfect...nice and wide for some serious rubber

[Hairy]

Tempted to strip the paint of my jeffsy and running her raw....anyone stumbled upon one like this yet?

 

also if raw would  it require a clear coat over as a final finish?

[Alouette3]

Always clear coat....

[DR ◣◢]

So.... Say I have R50k burning a hole in my pocket. 

 

What are the chances of getting onto a Jeffsy?

Give Black Sheep Bikes at Hoogekraal a shout... they do YT in SA and I'm sure they can help with that burning sensation

Only in theory unfortunately, me and some friends have been been asking for the last 6 months but to no avail. Blacksheep has to wait for YT to setup their website for RSA sales again. You need to buy directly from their site and Blacksheep is simply there to service YT’s. Frustrating situation.

Aha. So basically import yourself and pay the premium on duties. 

 

 

Edit: The site keeps directing me to https://za.yt-industries.com/

 

There goes that idea. I can't even look at the specs.

Yes exactly the problem. YT has to setup the RSA site and until then we cannot buy. Blacksheep will just tell you the same but perhaps they know something more around when this will be. I’ve tried to contact YT directly but no replies. Kinda bummed about the experience unfortunately

[RiverInTheRoad]

Local dealer support is highly underrated in bike purchasing. Although as far as I know  YT typically  does not have any proprietary parts. Standard bearings sizes etc.

I'm sure they would appreciate a call 22:00 at night when I'm doing "research", how difficult can it be to stop redirecting us to a blank website.

 

I'm not necessarily in the market for a YT but this doesn't really inspire confidence in their operation.
