Jewbacca Posted August 29, 2018 Share Dude, do some googling and chat to the dealers. What you ride, what you want to ride, how you ride..... The guys will sort you out properly. BUT at the end of the day, buy what makes your heart beat faster. If you have your heart set on something and they tell you to buy it's brother you will never truly bond with it.

Clinton H Posted August 29, 2018 Share prefer 29er Marathon/EC ThanksChat to the boys about a Blur , seems be the bike to have at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piston ZA Posted August 29, 2018 Share prefer 29er Marathon/EC ThanksAs Clinton H said above, you probably looking at the Blur. But also consider the Tallboy, which is a bit more trail orientated (little more suspension travel), but can still comfortably do marathons/XC. If you are racing for podiums, the Blur, but if you want a more do-it-all bike, the Tallboy Me rida my bicycle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaquesdp Posted August 29, 2018 Share Do it all bike mostly.. Training on Farm road and have some lekker 1km downhills where the Merida like to bottom out a bit.. no podiums wanted though just ride fun and do stuff like Epic and Attakwas Edited August 29, 2018 by Jaquesdp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddy Gordo Posted August 29, 2018 Share I was looking for an xl 5010......Any recommendations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Me rida my bicycle Posted August 29, 2018 Share All rounder probably the Tallboy. I only had the Tallboy 1 and 2 and they were awesome but they were 100MM rear and 120MM upfront. I think the Blur with 120MM fork might be better for long distance and still great fun on the trails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MitchConway Posted August 29, 2018 Share Tallboy for sure! Try see if you can get a test ride somewhere first though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
