Purnjap Posted March 2, 2010 Share Help me please - can get a few-month's old Silverback Surplus 2 for R14 500 (bicycling magazine says they cost around R25 000 new), do we agree its a good deal? Think I can do better for the money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted March 2, 2010 Share just make sure the same groupset (as in bicycling) is on this bike. Bicycling price's is for stock standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knievel Posted March 2, 2010 Share Sounds like a good deal to me but why not phone around and price it at a few shops. Often the magazine prices are inflated and aren't a true reflection of it's cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted March 2, 2010 Share I will do te following: 1) Go to a bike shop that stock Silverback and make sure about your bike size, price etc. 2) If you like what you see, get hold of the guy and go ahead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purnjap Posted March 2, 2010 Share I did get a price list from a distributor and R25k seems to be accurate. Plus the guy is high up in SA cycling, so guess I can trust him. I guess I must just do it (if it is the right size), thnx as always for your feedback guys. The hub is a great place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewie911 Posted March 2, 2010 Share My oom en tannie both got Silverback surplus 2 last year.They cost about R25000 and come with XT groupset and XTR rd. Really nice bikes and the price is good. I've seen a surplus 2 go for about R18000 on the hub i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
