Mileage Posted May 26, 2010 Share Whats the best MTB that you can buy for 10k? Is it better to go for a good frame and ok components/hubs etc and further upgrade over time or can you get something pretty decent for 10k stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canfan Posted May 26, 2010 Share You can also get a Cannondale F4 for about R9000. Very nice bike and comes with a air shock(Big advantage in my mind). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted May 26, 2010 Share Merida matts XC 400-dComponents:xt/deore mix Alexrims Rock shox Dart 2 Price:R9500 I will never pay that price for something with just a Dart fork. I don't have a problem with the Deore but at least a Recon fork then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starry nights Posted May 26, 2010 Share Silverback Nabraska (about R9300.00), also has an air fork (Rock shox tora SL Solo Air 100mm L/O) but other componants also better, such as XT RD, SLX crank etc. See: http://www.silverbacklab.com/int_site/specs/nabraska.jpg Maybe best to try all these and see what feels best? aonyx2010-05-26 04:46:05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoman Posted May 27, 2010 Share If I had your ten grand, I would still buy my GT Avalanche 1 - 2009 model (should be able to buy this for around R6-6500) and then 'fork' over the balance for a good fork. I'm sure you could buy something really good for that R3500-4000. https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=74605Mojoman2010-05-27 09:07:52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLYIT Posted May 27, 2010 Share look at the KHS RANGE, BY FAR THE BEST VALUE FOR MONEY I COULD FIND.BOUGHT ONE A MONTH AGO AND AM MORE THAN HAPPY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoe Posted May 27, 2010 Share https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=82609 Take a look at the Scott I have for sale... I'll be willing to drop to R10 000. The drivetrain has done less than 50km! It's the best specced bike you'll find at R10K...Scoe2010-05-27 09:18:05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
