BuffsVintageBikes Posted March 19 Posted March 19 44 minutes ago, Titan Racing Bikes said: Seriously though, we're certainly not rubber stamping asking R295k for a MTB, but the video makes some good points in terms of a top-end MTB being basically race-ready, with little needed to do other than personal preferences, vs a motorbike that most likely won't last a proper race in the category it falls in. The Valley Electrical Titan Racing Team took our stock Cypher RS Carbon Team bikes, changed tires, changed chainrings and added some spares, bottle cages and pedals, and took it to the Cape Epic for 8 days of dust hell. That's total BS, everyone knows that all KTM's are Race Ready >> It's their slogan after all 😉 BigDL, Headshot and Hairy 3
