On the obike sale can you not spend 1k more and get the Cannondale F5 rather than the F7?

I got one for the missus and what a nice bike, good componentry and a very nice ride.

Since then I have seen three others out on the road.

My husband sayd I must stay within the budget. Can you tell me which of these have the best components for the price?

Since when does a woman listen to their husband?

[cyclingfan]

Since I have 3 hobbies and I must prioritise.

Get the silverback phoenix your local LBS should give it to you for under 5k now that the new models are out.

Was at Probike's Raleigh launch and the pricing is extremely competitive as well. Full susser with Rock Shox Recon Gold, Avid Elixr 3 and a mix of SRAM X9, SLX and Deore with a fully adjustable fusion rear shock at around 14k.

Schwinn Moab - 2008

[Desi]

Schwinn Moab 2008 seems to have the best components.

would he stay within a budget if he was buying a bike??

[cyclingfan]

Yes he would because he is buying 2, one for me and one for him.

I don't see the problem... Cycling = priority

Ok. I need your opinion in a new price range. What mountain bike for the price range between R7000 - 8000.
