MichH Posted August 21, 2007 Share Ok, so it's mildly concerning that my hubbie, a non-rider, hangs out more at my LBS than I do. Put it down to my loooong work hours and the fact that he's a sweetie about dropping my bike off when I break it (or just bend it a bit). Anyway, I get an MMS of a beautiful frame today: a full carbon Ibis Mojo weighing in at a mere 2.6kg! Here are pics I stole from their website, Mikes Bikes are the first Jhb shop to stock them!

Thug Posted August 22, 2007 Share The Ibis is certainly one of those speciality brands that make you lust after that long travel carbon frame. ..... a full carbon Ibis Mojo weighing in at a mere 2.6kg! The frame weighs 2.6kg's not the entire bike Although a full carbon frame, it still weighs approx 300g more than the Superlight's frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder Woman Posted August 22, 2007 Share Beautiful bike but I would be too scared to take it into the veld. And Mich, the amount of bruises you get I suggest you stick to your Commencal!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MintSauce Posted August 22, 2007 Share Don't feel bad when you eyes wonder MichH. Bikes generally play well together. Even if you put XC and DH bikes together or ali and carbon....they're very tolerant and don't mind the company. They're actually happy for your extra stoke. Just as long as they're not neglected and get taken out frequently you won't have any jealousy-issues Even I've been lusting, but my bank manager said "NO WAY!!!!!!!!!"

[/quote']Your "favourite" store ...........MikesThe frame should retail for around R 19k Okay, then I'll look at them in the mags. For R19k I'll rather take one of Titus Ti's Ti Titus'. *huh* or an Elsworth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichH Posted August 22, 2007 Share Don't worry all, I can't afford that pricetag! But still nice to look! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thug Posted August 29, 2007 Share So went round to my LBS yesterday afternoon for a bit of chinwag and what should be standing proudly in the window, you guessed it, the same Ibis Mojo. Fully built utilising a 2008 Fox 140 RLC fork and 2008 Shimano XT groupset including brakes and rims. So I took it for a ride..... Wow, that is one really schweet and smooth ride. I really envy the person whose going to cough up the R42k to buy it. Anyone want to buy a super bling SC Superlight ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
