Got myself one of these a while back.

Absolute magic.Only used for commuting.Frame is class,I have always said giant make some of the best bikes in the world.

Having said that it might go on sale soon.N + 100000 means there are a lot of bikes that just sit there.You only really need 1 mtb and 1 road bike.

  

yeah, you can't tease about selling and not tell us the size!

 

under his breath (be a small, but don't be a small!)

  

Thank goodness you and I are not the same size Patch.

In Giant I ride a size small so that's about a 53

Normal retail for that bike is about 41K

Best you squeeze your lbs for discount.

I got mine for in the 30'sk

Which is absolute bargain against everything else.

  

Sh*t. thats my size.

when you sell you might have a buyer in the wings

#justsaying

So this happened - thanks Stringbean!

So I shipped my CX bike to JHB, and simply bought a road bike for CPT, roads there are good enough for a road bike.

 

 

Which of course leads to the next question.....what roadie did you get?!

I tried really hard to buy this bike, but the dude selling it didn't respond to mails, then after getting his number and calling him, he ignored SMSes...

Also nearly nearly bought Andrew's GT, must say he was really cool chatting too and if I get to Karoobaix, I owe him some beers.

 

Ended up buying a bright green Cannondale SuperSix off the classifieds, Ultegra/Stages PM on it from a really cool guy in George. Happened to be in the area because of the Oyster festival. Ads been removed already.
