  1. you can contact us on sales@slingcycles.com for a quote in Rands.
  2. Hi guys, our web page is up and running. We will upgrade it as we go along. www.slingcycles.com
  3. No you can not put 2 in Sling 2. But you can comfortably pack two in Sling TSI and High Wing. My self and James will be doing Tanqua Kuru Bicycle race in May and we will be flying in with Sling High Wing and two Tagati's.
  4. Adventure ride with bicycles is coming later this year
  5. Yes, chain stay is splitable. That frames will be available on special order only. We will also have on offer frames with couplings. They will also be available on special order.
  6. Both forks are adventure forks, they have three pack accessory mounts, fender and racks mounts, internal dyno routing and drop-out chips for adjustable axle to crown and rake of the fork.
  7. I have done until today 1800 km this year on the bike, testing various setups on various terrains across South Africa and James have done almost as much on his one, and I must say that bicycle is more than capable to handle almost everything my MTB and road bike are together. We will soon have 5 demo bikes available for test ride at our Sling factory at Eikenhof. Final frame design can accommodate tire size up to 29 x 2.4. It will be available in three setups with two different forks as well as frame set only. Web page will be released soon and will have all the details as well as prices. If you are interested to come and see or test ride any of two prototypes you can contact me on cycles@slingaircraft.com If you have any questions about the bike feel free to ask me here.
  8. And this is prototype no. 2. It is using belt drive with internal gear hub Kindernay XIV
  9. Good afternoon. Bicycle from that picture is our no.1 prototype. At the time picture was taken I was testing setup with a fork manufactured for us in Canada that wasn't able to accommodate tire size that frame is design for. I was using 27.5 x 2.2 tires and prototype no.1 was design to take 27.5 x 2.6 or 29 x 2.2. I have removed that fork and installed ENVE adventure fork instead, coz that fork is wide enough to accommodate tire sizes we wanted to test on the bike. This is how it looks today.
  10. I carry Nitroglycerin pills on every run or ride. Just in case. Never had a heart problem before. But my family had. I run minimum 30 km a week. Only one run a week more then 170 beats per minute. Never more than 172 bpm. Two runs 150-160, never more then 162 bpm. Other are easy runs or rides in low 140. I m 44 years old. I m asthmatic.the more I run or ride I don't need pump at all. If my heart beat is unstable or to high for pace I slow down or stop the exercise completely. I don't drink before any activity at all. If I do drink I skip the activity. You are the master of your health and you must make sure you are not doing it too much.
