ChrisF Posted April 2, 2020 Share Are these bikes on the heavy side? I am considering the Comp. https://www.titanracingbikes.com/product/drone-comp/ dont see the weight on the spec sheet .... One would expect it to be in the same ball park as other alu HT bikes .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruben101 Posted April 3, 2020 Share The Manitou Markhor is a great fork. I have it on my Merida Hardtail and i am very happy with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisF Posted April 3, 2020 Share YES. Many bike shops do trade.ins. The co-payment may well be a bit stiff ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ByronH Posted December 5, 2020 Share Hi all. So who has owned one of these Drone HT's for a while now? I am looking to get a new lightweight HT in early 2021 for between 20 and 30k. I'm looking at the Drone Pro, the Specialized Chisel Comp and the Giant XTC SLR. I love the frame of the Chisel Comp, but the fork (Judy Gold) seems a bit low end, and the wheelset is non-descript.The XTC SLR looks good, but I dont think the frame is quite as light, or compliant, as the Chisel. This Drone Pro/Elite comes with great comps! XT, Rockshox SID... what! those comps alone push you close to R20000, nevermind a frame etc. I do quite a lot of trail riding (blue and red trails mainly), but I also want a light, aggressive HT that can climb well, and can absorb bumps and chatter a bit better than my alloy GT Zaskar. Does this Titan Drone frame absorb bumps and trail chatter, or is a very hard ride that will fatigue a rider after a few hours in the saddle? Looking forward to your opinions! (if only one can properly demo bikes in this country). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
