Case28 Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 (edited) About a week and a half ago I got hit by a taxi. My bike is a complete write off and thankfully insurance is covering it. I have about 20K to buy a new road bike. I have been looking at the Cannondal Six Carbon 5 for R20800.00. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Edited November 25, 2010 by Case28
Mavric Man Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 Nothing wrong with that, very nice indeed.
Roulier Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 As Mavric Man says,nothing wrong with that. I cannot say what your finances are, but it might just be the one time in your life that; if you had an extra 10K+, you'd be able to buy a bike that you might never ever be able to afford. It's just a thought! Nice dale though. I haven't been in this position so I'm not sure what I would do myself.
Bike Mob Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 You could also get a Specialized Tarmac Comp. awesome race bike
Case28 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Posted November 25, 2010 I was thiking about getting a Specialized. What do they go for roughly?

Big J-WP Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 5 strippers for the weekend that would do it, Might have some change for a secons hand bike then jokes aside, Only bike I have ever ridden has been cannondale, had plenty in my life time even just bought a mtb cannondale so that would be my choice.
Case28 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Posted November 25, 2010 5 strippers sounds like the best bet guys!
Heinie Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 You can also get a complete Giant TCR carbon for just over R20k. Keep in mind that there's two different types/designes of TCR carbon frames. I know that the one is a bit more expensive than the other.
