Mikebike123 Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Hi I am looking to buy a 29" soft tail for between R35k and R45k. I mostly do XC events. Would welcome any recommendations as to what would be the best value for money. Thanks!
Grease_Monkey Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Howzit, welcome to the Hub! Are you looking for a softail (ie: no rear suspension, but flex in the seat stays)? Or a dual suspension bike? To my knowledge there are very limited options when it comes to softails in SA.
Mikebike123 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 Hi Grease Monkey, Looking for a dual suspension but because I am on a budget I want to make sure that I pay for value and not necessarily brand name.

ABrooks Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Hi, I have a 2016 Silverback Sesta Comp going for R28500 if you want to take a look. https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/346282-2016-silverback-sesta-comp/ It is a Large frame.
cpelser Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 A second hand "new" bike from the classifieds here, or check our Bike Market..
Eddy Gordo Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Have a look thru the classifieds. There are some good bargains, great deals and nice bikes!
Jaquesdp Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 my old Specialised epic Comp , let me know done 1200km
Grease_Monkey Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 I would say the Giant Anthem is going to be best value/money/spec combination. Don't let an alu frame put you off, you can get a very well specced on for that price.
GiantTjop Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Do agree- second hand for that price you could pick up amazing deals- Anthem carbon too. Scroll through the classifieds
JohanDiv Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/342554-scott-spark-rc-900-full-carbon/ I hope you're 1.90m tall. I was seriously considering until I saw it was a XL frame.
Hellgate Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Check out my 2017 Anthem X Advanced on the Hubfor R39,900. You will honestly not get better value formoney. Bike is like new with a brand new frame, tyres,120mm Fox Factory Kashima Fit 4 fork and much more.
