GT W Avalanche 1.0 While the world’s gone 29er-mad, there’s still something to be said for the traditionally-sized format. It’s lighter, and suits smaller riders better. The Avalanche is a highly popular model for GT, and there’s a good reason they sell them hand over fist every year. Not deviating from the successful formula, this bike is durable and light, with powerful disc brakes and a triple crankset to get you over almost any hill. R7 995 www.omnico.co.za Titan Calypso Sport Disc To enjoy mountain biking to the fullest, we suggest that a new entrant to the sport starts at R5k for a hardy bike that’s light enough to allow them to participate comfortably in a medium-length race. Titan is a fairly new brand on the block, designed by the distributors of Merida bikes, with considerable know-how on how to fill the gaps in our market. Like offering the specs of a five-grand bike for a lower price – 8-speed drivetrain, hydraulic brakes, a lockout fork and women-specific frame.

The company’s proprietary Maestro suspension system is really one of the best in the business, keeping the ride supple and forgiving, but not holding you back when you pedal like hell. The ALUXX shows off all the latest features, like OverDrive and PowerCore technologies for precision stiffness and confident handling.

The Senza is no exception. It has a lockout fork, hydraulic disc brakes and fast-rolling tyres for when the trails turn to tar. For a bike that’ll take you anywhere for not that much money, look no further. R4500 www.silverbacklab.com / 05.06 2012 71
