DuncanCT Posted February 22, 2018 Share A very special bike for this year's Epic - Team 101 "Real Steelers"Awesome bike, GLWE! As per your reply to Dave's Instagram post, what Cotic is your partner riding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waxhead Posted February 22, 2018 Share It is not waxheads first rodeo with this beast. He has done a couple of stage races on this bike. It is a South African developed bike if I remember correctly! nice Contraband 983 Reynolds. Where is your little straw hat???I did the previous three Epics on my contraband plus last year's Munga but have opted now for an all steel Dave Mercer special bespoke bike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebeen Posted February 22, 2018 Share That was my mate's dad. His previous partner pulled out with two weeks to go, so his old man borrowed his sisters pink Nishiki and did it. His old man did some road riding in his day, but really did not train at allkiefness. you need to get that piksha for me then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waxhead Posted February 22, 2018 Share Lost the straw hat in Kenya's RVO and replaced it with a flower that died in December's Munga (the human nearly died too)Kept the name Scelerat as I have a tattoo on my left calf!Big 2.35 tires running on low 1.6 and 1.3 pressure. CNC tooled front and rear chain rings, solid 3mm steel - 33/21 ratio for EpicIt is a Dave Mercer bike - 2 years in the making, designed especially for EpicDropped EBB in favour of track drop outs - cleaner look and better power engagement with a 30mm Hope BB and Hope cranks.Still got Colt Brooks saddle and added Formula Cura brakesSo amped and we come thru my home village of McGregor on day one - how special is that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
