What MTB should i upgrade to?

[jugheaddave]

What about Giant Anthem X1?

[covie]

well' date=' i'd really like to own one of those one day when i win the lotto lol, but for the moment i've only got 15k for a whole bike, cant exactly do a race running the route with a frame on my shoulder lol[/quote']

 

Very valid point! That is the top-end. have a squizz on www.bottecchia.com and see if any of the aluminium frame scatch your eye. Will try confirm prices this week with Bottecchia

Have a look at the silverback carbon softails

oh my bad, post has been corrected. thanks ghostface,

 

you wouldn't ba able to tell me if you guys (dragonsport) have extra large  (21 inch +) bikes in stock, because the merida, gt and scott suppliers don't have in and are waiting for their 2011 stock. and their is no way i'd be able to get a bike dirrectly from the suppliers and cut out the middle man, if you know what i mean lol

We have some 22's arriving in Mid June, around the 18th.

 

You'll have to get your LBS to backorder you one ASAP, because we aren't getting many.

[GTRacing]

GT first.... then the giant trance.

You can also look at the Bulls Copperhead 2 at around R12,000.00. www.bulls.de. I know baie-sukkel advertised some of these bikes.

The Sierra is on MY wish list for 2010. Will probably be purchasing it in the next few months.

 

Would love to hear opinion of someone that have one.

 

 

 

I have a definite soft spot for Silverback.

 

Local and if you compare the components to similar priced bikes; you get more bang for your buck.

 

 

 

Must admit I dislike Merida and Giant, but that is based on emotions and not quantifiable facts.
