Eugene Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 Wait, are comments gone???Yes... We can no longer catch out the guys selling fakes, selling bikes with quill headsets and claiming its a 2015 model etc. The whole heart of Bikehub has been ripped out.
Pure Savage Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 This whole no comments in the classifieds is annoying! Look at this advert https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/road-bikes/382086/argon-18-gallium-pro-2018 Starting off R93k for a bike which is brand new, maybe R65k. Its got last generation ultegra. The handlebar tape is worn out and advert says it was only used a few times. Alu wheels and no power meter. Probably also needs a new scale, as his one is under reading by 2 kg.

Long Wheel Base Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Uh oh, this one is only in fair condition: https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/rear-derailleurs/390832/xt-derailleurFair looks better than good. Does fair sit above or below good on the condition ladder? Where does mint sit on the ladder? Does mint sit above or below only used a few times?

Shebeen Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 not commenting on ads means this sort of literature gets lost. Every bit as amazing as the reviews are telling you. The only thing I can add, consider going one size down from your usual road bike size if you want to get an aggressive geometry. E.g on the road I am usually a 58 but with the Diverge a 56 works better for me. The bike handles gravel exceptionally well and is fast on tar. As you'll imagine with a off the shelf S-Works it's light and I went up Suikerbossie South Side in 4:57 on this bike so there is absolutely no issues sticking with or kicking road bike asses. It's specced exactly as per the Specialized website with no modifications. It's matt black so vitally, matches any kit and looks great on photos, even when you don't. It's in mint condition. Not cheap mints you get for free when paying your pizza bill. Fisherman's Friend Original. The work of art comes standard with a dropper seat post so on the downhills you can out-freewheel the kids doing Chris Froom top tube moves from the comfort of your S-Works saddle. Most importantly it will allow you to get out there and travel on gravel because you only live once and after that you are dead for a very long time. Reason for selling is that I am a brand ambassador and the bike is getting replaced with an identical 2020 one. I know the price is quite a rondom number, apologies for that. Specialized sets it not me. I am happy to pitch in R200 from my own pocket and make your effective price a bit rounder. The bike looks exactly like when you google it, so I decided on a photo of what it's born to do, drilling it on a gravel road! and more It's no secret that I don't really like rocky single track so my mountainbike doesn't get a lot of exercise. But you need a mountain bike in your arsenal and this is the one because when you do ride offroad, it has a brain that makes up for whatever you are lacking upstairs. And it's very fast. The only modification to how the bike is specced and sold is that I added a second water bottle cage, exactly where you would add a second water bottle cage. It's completely serviced etc. This bike and I came third at the 2019 Transcape. Apart from that it has done very little but it looks amazing on photos because it's all black, so it matches whatever kit you wear, as you can see on the photo of the photoshoot the two of us did at Boschendal. It comes with a broze medal that you can hang around it and the shirt I wore. The shirt is secondhand but washed. I have never fallen off this bike, so the shirt doesn't have any holes in it. Reason for selling is that I am a Specialized brand ambassador and this wonderful beautiful machine is getting replaced by a identical 2020 version.
