This looks so cool! Love the teal-black colour scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosbrommer Posted May 13, 2018 Share Man, i am currently eyeing a stigmata. I am a mountain biker at heart. Always have been! Yet i do enjoy the odd road race (like argus - on a borrowed road bike every year). But i just cant get myself to buy a dedicated road bike. A cross bike i will ride more than just the odd road race since i can klap some gravel roads with the odd gravel race thrown in. I have seen builds coming in at 7.3kg! Crazy. Mine will prob be closer to 8kg but i am sure i will still manage to klap a sub 3 come argus time? (given correct gearing and tyre choice). What do you gravel donkeys think?

MDJ Posted May 13, 2018 Share Ek dink my bergfiets kan dalk n bietjie stof vergader. Ek is mal oor dit. Dito! I sold my Giant TCX to buy a "real road bike" and a "real mountain bike (scott spark 930)". I love the road bike, but the mountain bike feels like a truck compared to riding the TCX on gravel or flat fast single track. Jonesy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaguar Shark Posted May 31, 2018 Share got my Silverback Siablo CX bike this week having a blast on this machine! It's so so so much fun and perfect for the forestry roads here in Knysna, tomorrow I'm hitting the 7 passes to give it a full baptism of gravel...

wildwindfr Posted May 31, 2018 Share Finally getting a gravel frame. Thanks Peds, taking his Fuji frame off his hands. It May be another month or 2 until it is ready to roll as I must still source some wheels and shifters. Budget spent for this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
