Hello Hubbers!

I'm in the market for a new/used bike that's a reasonable upgrade on my current bike (Mongoose Tyax, hard tail, suntour XCR, LX derailleur, v-brakes). It's getting on in years (about 6 years old now) and components are starting to fail.

I'd like something with at least SLX components, air shocks and hydraulic discs, tubeless tyres. Does anyone have a good recommendation or know of place in Cape Town that has a good deal?

Also undecided about 26in or 29in as well as soft tail or hard tail. This mainly because I've only ever ridden a 26in hard tail and have nothing to compare it against.

Any words of wisdom will be appreciated.
