Shebeen Posted November 30, 2020 Share Lol, yeah thanks to a Kiwi we can now make a bike entirely from South African parts. is this really built locally? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickGM Posted November 30, 2020 Share is this really built locally? No I'm almost certain it would be manufactured elsewhere. Most likely taiwan but that's a guess. But that's not really what I was getting at. We've got this fantastic south african company that you could use to source just about everything you needed to build a bike... run by a kiwi. Edit: and I mean that entirely as a self-deprecating joke, as in, we couldn't get it right ourselves.

MORNE Posted November 30, 2020 Share Lol, yeah thanks to a Kiwi we can now make a bike entirely from South African parts. I happened to see that frame a few hours after the ad was posted and thought it was/is beautiful, but there was no fanfare at all, it's like it was quietly snuck into the classifieds. I hope it takes off. All of the rapide stuff I've ever bought is still going strong. How are we pronouncing the name of this badboy anyway? I'm going with spanish, as in "El Tee-grey".I asked about the fanfare and they mentioned they are still busy with the marketing photos etc. Just wanted to get them ‘out’ there in the meantime. I think it’s safe to assume the name is Spanish for “Tiger” yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menno Schagen Posted January 19, 2021 Share Do you know if anybody has built up a bike with this frame? I'm really tempted to pull the trigger, but wanted to know what the end product would look like before I did it. Warthog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menno Schagen Posted January 19, 2021 Share Give Rapide a call. I am sure they have built up a few they can send you pics of.I chatted to them via the website and they dont have any pictures of a build yet. So perhaps I can get some discount if I promise to send them pics of my build MORNE , TheoG and Hairy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
