wesley_r Posted January 26, 2010 Share Just got off the phone with cyclelab in Northgate, coincidentally the guy I spoke to said they have received their dual suspension bikes, and 1 entry level. He reckons the top spec bikes are lekker, but the entry level one they have at the moment is a little overpriced, but in a couple of weeks they should be getting the mid range bikes which he reckons will definitely be worth looking at.

Danger Dassie Posted January 26, 2010 Share "Just came from Cycle Lab and the bikes are specced well, look damn sweet and are competitively priced. Full sus, hydroformed frame with a DT swiss rear shock, rock shox reba up front and an XT/SLX component mix for just under 26K .... Not bad, and a bloody nice looking bike.

dirtrider Posted January 26, 2010 Share The older models from a few years ago did like to crack frames . Sure they would have sorted out that little problem . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Zone Posted January 26, 2010 Share I have a mate in the UK who rides a KTM MTB, he raves about it, not sure about how it compares to other brands available in SA price wise, but if it is for sale at cyclelab I would guess that you could pick up an equivalently spec'd bike elswhere for less. I think Merida is offering some of the best value at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zula Posted February 17, 2010 Share Im beginning to think that Tour/Race proven is the way to go. Merida is definately race proven as far as MTB goes. Also, value for money, you cant touch it!!! Just not sure im mad about that magura upfront! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
