Wat is die algemene indruk met
MERIDA BIG NINE 300 - Kan een kry vir R7500
Merida Big nine 40 - R5550
Titan 29 Expert - R6700
Silverback Spektra - R6999
Scott Accent 940 - R8000
demmit! die Merida's is 'n BUST! L-frames is uitverkoop. Nuwe orders teen hoer prys!
die Spectra bly 'n opsie. fiets voel heel lekker toe ek hom vir 'n spin vat in parkeer area. HEELTEMAL verskillend van my ou Raliegh!
Ek het ook met 'n merida 300 gery (wat reeds verkoop is) en verkies hom Bo die Spectra. Maar nou ja.....
Soos ek met die verkoops mense by die verskillende shops gepraat het trek alles my maar na 'n groter budget......

Specialized bied actually baie goeie waarde vir geld. Ek weet net nie hoe laag in die mark hulle iets bied nie.

Go for the Scott, the Shimano Alivio groupset is better than the Altus components.

Hy het gewen!
Gister aan die order ingesit. Miskien het ek hom die Vrydag.
Sommer onmiddelik vir my en my seun ingeskryf vir 'n 10km MTB funride die naweek in Somerset Wes.
Hoop regtig Flandria kan 'n plan maak en hom tee Vrydag reg hê anders moet ek Saterdag weer met die posfiets ry....

Lekker! Geniet hom!

Ek het die fiets Vrydag aand 17:00 opgetel maar moes 18:00 by 'n funksie wees so ek kon nie op hom ry nie.
Toe is dit Saterdag oggend die 10km fun ride. ek het so bietjie rondgespeel voor die wegspring en deur die ratte gespeel en gevoel hoe die ding werk... overall het ek heel gemaklik gevoel op die fiets.
Die race was baie lekker en ek het redelik gemaklik gevoel. Die fiets is soveel lekkerder as die posfiets!
Daar het so 80 mense weggesring. Ons was tussen die in die voorste groeppie tot halfpad. Mini-Me het 'n helse tumble gevat toe 'n ander ryer voor hom in cut op 'n stukkie downhill en dit het sy moed so bietjie gebreek. Hy was van daar af Baie skrikerig teen die afdraandes en ons het bietjie stadiger gevat.
Groot was my verbasing toe ons die uitslag kry! Mini-Me eerste in ouderdom en 9de overall 5de man, Ek 10de! ons was net 7 minute agter wenner en tussen ons en 2de plek was 3 minute.
Dit BAIE geniet!

Just 1 little bit of advice Coenraad, now that the cycling bug got you: Under NO circumstances log in to The Hub SA. There simply is not enough time in the day to hang out there and here on the 4x4 Forum as well, and that means you will have to cut working or sleeping time (4x4 and cycling time cannot be cut)

So Less than 3 months after I started and must say I am starting to like MTB more and more!
I have done approx 200km - 90 of these the last 4 weeks...
We have completed 2 x10 km races in the Nissan Trailseeker Series
1st - we did in 55min came 9th and 10th (60 riders)
2nd - we did in 34 min came 3rd and 4th (55 riders)
These put us at 1 and 2 in the series!
Yesterday we took is up to a 15km in Die Burger MTB. We lost 5 min after my son got a full blast of mud in the face tossed up by another rider and took a tumble. Took all my convincing to get him back on the bike to finish the race. at last after a wash from the drinks bottle we went out again.
We finished in just over 50min. AND in the first 100 of more than 650 riders!
I felt like i could have done it faster or could have done the 30km but my goal is to help my son train. He will probably never be in the top of his age, but to be able to say that the 2 of us have something in the open air to do together that is first prize for me!

That's great.. can't wait for my kids to be old enough to do proper riding with me!
