Martin_v_Z Posted November 19, 2009 Share Hi Hubbers,Looking for some advice in possibly purchasing a new MTB - CUBE LTD - picture below (making the switch from Road to MTB). Pricing in the region of R12k for brand new bike.Is this a good deal?Are there any drawbacks to the bike and components? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdeJongh Posted November 19, 2009 Share From CRC or CubaSA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted November 19, 2009 Share For a LTD Team it is very low specced. EA 30 is bottom of the range. Just a Recon fork? Team should be Sid or at least Reba Team. Hubs is only Deore. I think you can do better. This bike sbould be about 8k max. I must say it's a good weight for the price and specs (if it can be true) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_v_Z Posted November 19, 2009 Share IdeJongh : Local supplier in JHB - previous colleague now importing. PM me if you would like his contact details. Mampara: Thanks for the feedback and advice. I am currently also considering a 2nd bike.... pics below... Which would be a better choice??....Silverback or Cube?.... Keeping in mind that both are in my price bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted November 19, 2009 Share Martin, I don't see a price for that Silverback. Except for the fork and frame, all the major parts are top of the range. The wheels are 100% tubeless on excellent hubs. Excellent brakes and gearing. New this thing should sell for close to 20k if not more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_v_Z Posted November 19, 2009 Share Thanks a stack for the advice..... You have definitely helped me with assurance on my choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
