Swift Carbon Attack 2014

Been upgrading bit by bit for the past 2 years

 

Zipp Bars

Ritchey Saddle

Ritchey carbon seatpost

Dura Ace 7900 groupset

Easton EC90 SL crankset with Power

American Classic Argent wheels with Zipp Tires (need some carbon wheels, funds welcome)

 

Where did you get the Easton EC90 SL Cinch crankset from?

So I had a chat to Jarryd yesterday and he mentioned the following in connection with the sale of the Swift brand:

 

"Swift has been sold globally. As we are/were a subsidiary, we are closing the Cape Town office. This means that Swift will exit SA for a short period, but will look to return with a new distributor. Overall, a very positive move for the brand and company.

 

Yes, warranties are still valid with Swift internationally!"

 

It appears that the new owners will be re-entering SA at a later stage with a new distributor - let's see how that effects the quality and pricing...

And so my swift carbon attack has been sent to the graveyard... I got very lucky to walk away from this one.

 

That's quite a bit less sexy than I was hoping. Heal up and good luck getting a new steed.

What happened?

Driver wasn't concentrating and turned infront of me from oncoming traffic. I hit the car on the mirror and then hit the windscreen. If I hit it anywhere else I might not have survived...

 

Frame cracked in several places, front wheel damaged, carbon bars cracked, stem bent and damaged the rear mech. Basically a write off... 0be2da833e44f6c0c3e01437fcaa0f20.jpg

Wow! That is quite a crash!

 

Glad to hear you came off relatively unscathed - heal up nicely & quickly!
