daggavis Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Is this frame the same as the Schwinn Peloton Pro or the Schwinn Peloton LTD (High modulous) frame? Awesome bike! I seriously considered buying the same frame but since it is an economic recession I settled for a much cheaper BMC Streetfire SSX alu frame..maybe oneday i'll also ride a plastic bike and planet X is definately good value for money...
AndreZA Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 Just like people are offended by the "girls and bikes" thread, so am I with this thing. I think it is in bad taste to show off and brag about something that others want. I'm gonna ask admin to remove this thread. I'm highly discusted in you people and your pawn.
keith Posted January 30, 2009 Author Posted January 30, 2009 Daggavis I don't know if its the same as either of the Schwinns to be honest with you. I had a good laugh when I read the latest Bicycling mag- at the back under 2009 frames, my one is like fourth from the bottom in price range! Mampara jealousy makes you nasty
Mielies Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 Hey Keith You've had this bike a while now? How does it ride? I want to buy myself a new frame some time and price-wise this looks like a good option. Best of all is I can do it under R 10 000, including seatpost, stem handlebars and some other extras. I'll go with the black frame though!
_Daemon_ Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Nice bike, the picture does not really do it justice thought. The white frame in real life looks awesome!
splat Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Its def. on my wanted list. Along with the new Ultegra.drool...
Bike Mob Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 It's so difficult to take good pics of the white bikes... they always have that Halo effect. Stunning ride... not sure about the red cage tho. I hope it begs you to ride it and gives you many happy miles.
Kiwi Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 We have the carbon black frames in stock now and can do an Ultegra 2010 groupset bike for R18856.75
dee_biker Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Kiwi, guys, do we know the weight difference between the Carbon SL frame and the Superlight Team Alloy frame? That Alloy frame is also a beauty!
Kiwi Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Kiwi' date=' guys, do we know the weight difference between the Carbon SL frame and the Superlight Team Alloy frame? That Alloy frame is also a beauty![/quote'] Hi Dee_Biker, Just built up a Superlight Team Alloy with a Microshift Carbon groupset, looks very cool, I'll try and post a pic if I can before it gets picked up on the weekend. Weight difference between the carbon and alloy frames: S(44) M(48) L(52) XL(56) Pro Carbon 1040 1120 1180 1210 Team Alloy 1321 1375 1441 1508
dee_biker Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 So that's about 260gr difference on average, which is not bad for a alloy frame. Very good price. These frames are very cool! I can imagine the Carbon SL frame , with the Microshift White groupset, some lekka carbon wheels. What a ride! Maybe December if my bonus comes in! dee_biker2009-08-21 02:44:12

avatar Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 7.6kg?!? not too shabby! for 105 grouppo etc. im impressed
gummibear Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 7.6kg?!? not too shabby! for 105 grouppo etc. im impressed That's very light for 105.What wheels and bars,seatpost ex....the Planet x stems are very nice and they are light to.
slowtwitch Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 I doubt that bike was so light. Look at the frame weights: it's not lighter than the Giants, cervelo's ect, and with training wheels and 105?????Sorry I don't believe the 7.6kg's for a complete setup with pedals and all.
