Allrounder Posted November 14, 2018 Share Who is still riding their Makrodales? The ballie that bought one is making such good progress. He takes all the advice he can get and then implement it. We went for a ride last night 17,6 km gray stuff, 204m elevation with an avr of 18,4 kmp/h The ballie is 66 years old and weighs 108kg. When we started, he was 117kg.... Needles to say, he loves his bike!! shaper, Eddy Gordo, HdB and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadbod Racing Posted November 14, 2018 Share My missus is still rocking her Makrodale.... She's over the moon (this is the same chick who bought a Mongoose 26er in 2002 and is still hanging in the garage) she bought some SPD's so she's super happy. We took our daughters to do a sunset cruise along the promenade on Saturday evening, the 3 of them on their bikes and me running next to my youngest cause I've recently taken off her training wheels.

MORNE Posted November 14, 2018 Share Same here, wife also loves hers. It is her first "proper" bike. She always made due with built up hand-me-downs . I've even tried it out..although im a 'bit' tall for the medium XC geo.But it rides well, brakes are nice and strong and it shifts like a champ.It has been a while since I have been able to hook up the big ring up front and go that fast on a mtb. 1x spins out so fast in comparison...but i'd rather walk than have a front derailleur. I have some deore cranks, brakes and XT drivertrain goodies i'm gonna upgrade it with eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
