wildwindfr Posted July 6, 2018 Share Hi hubland. Need some feedback. Looking to replace my current Momsen AL329 2014 model with a new bike by the end of the year. I ride the Limpopo marathon series which generally consists off 6 races between 60km and 80km. Will also do some smaller races. I am also looking at doing some longer events next such as the Waterberg challenge and maybe the new Magoebaskloof stage race. A dual suspension would be great but spec on hardtails is better. I generally finish in the top 20 overall and last race was 3rd in age group. I saw the Silverback at my LBS this week and really like it. It was marked at R25 000. I think that is a good deal for a carbon bike. Anyone here have one or have ridden one that can give some feedback or alternatives? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildwindfr Posted July 20, 2018 Share It is the base model. I am more interested in the frame. Components can always be upgraded later on if needed!Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mawbs Posted July 20, 2018 Share Hi. Nobody ridden this bike yet? I know Tiffany Keep rides one and she is always on the Podium, so would assume it's a good bike for racing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nox1111 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Hey man, the Superspeed is ripping up race tracks all over the world and locally on the podium almost every weekend. Luke Moir & Tiffany Keep locally, along with Frazier Clagharty, Mariske Strauss and Gagne to name a few on the international circuit. The tech works, the frame is lightweight and robust - stiff where it needs to be, getting power to the wheels, and flexible where it needs to be, comfort on a hardtail. Gorgeous in the flesh (and though I have not ridden it myself) I hear only good things! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildwindfr Posted July 20, 2018 Share Thanks Nox for that. I really like the look of the bike. It is even nicer in the flesh. Think I need to get my budget together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
