By Press Office · 308 comments

In partnership with Santa Cruz Bicycles, TokaiMTB is offering the chance to win a Santa Cruz bike from their lineup. As part of a national funding drive, each R150 that you donate to the TokaiMTB trail fund gives you one entry into the draw to win.

How to enter

Head over to the TokaiMTB website here to make your donation to the trail building fund. For every R150 that you donate, you get an entry into the draw. The more you donate the better your chances of riding a new Santa Cruz on some great new trails at Tokai.

The prize

Santa Cruz Bicycles supports similar successful fundraising initiatives around the world, enabling trail crews to realise their plans for trail expansion while fulfilling riders’ dreams.

The winner can choose any frame model and colour from the Santa Cruz range which will be fitted with a standard Santa Cruz build kit by Rush Sports.

For more details and terms and conditions head over to the TokaiMTB website.

Closing time and date for entry will be midnight on Friday 14th July 2017, after which no further entries to the draw will be accepted. The winner will be announced via Bike Hub and TokaiMTB on Monday the 17th July 2017.

More about the TokaiMTB Trail Fund:

TokaiMTB is a constituted representative group and publicly funded non-profit organisation. As one of the founding members of the Table Mountain Mountain Bike forum, our mandate is to assist SANParks with mountain bike activity management in the Table Mountain National Park, with the aim of providing the recreational users a safe and well-managed mountain bike trail facility.

TokaiMTB is in possession of a SANParks issued permit to construct and maintain mountain bike trails within the Table Mountain National Park, as well as host community volunteer programmes in Tokai. In order to continue operations, TokaiMTB relies on donations from both business and the public. Donation drives take the form of innovative fundraisers and offer rewards to individuals who enter and thereby donate to the fund. This helps TokaiMTB offer users full-time representation and trails management and meet the financial needs of this recreational activity.

Awesome competition! I'm just curious as to what a "standard Santa Cruz build kit" entails???

I think the website has the details, but basically its a bike without all that Enve carbon stuff if memory serves.

Another good idea would be -

For every volunteer trail build day you have attend = 1 entry!!

Well, without wanting to look a gift horse in the mouth, if we could have the exact components of the standard build kit, it would be awesome.

PS i have entered already

All the bikes... all the specs... in the 'specs' part of each model there is a list of the normal parts on the left and column for 'customisation' where all the ENVE carbon sits. I'm guessing that everything on the left column is standard build.

I've spent 150 randelas on things with far worst odds!

Thanks!

Although that nearly sounds too good to be true?!?

If i pick the Hightower CC XX1+ bike....that's a R128k bike right there.

Somehow have a feeling that wont be on'?

Hope I'm wrong. Let's see

:clap:

I hope the Stigmata is included.

Entered!

Something's fishy here. ANY SC bike in standard build?! That can easily tick over R100k.

Dieter!

Jun 21, 2017, 7:41 AM

I actually have no clue what I would even choose! I don't have a road/gravel bike and that Stigmata is a thing of beauty. That being said, i'm sure any other bike will crush my Anthem :mellow:

From the website, from what I understand, the Standard builds look to be round about the R70-R76k range, with GX 1X11 and the C carbon frame

Not if you read the rules:

The prize is as follows: One Santa Cruz bicycle of your choice (any model, colour or construction without Enve rims) with a standard build kit. Assembly and construction are included.

That reads - anything as long as it's not got Enve wheels. Any construction means it can be the C or CC frame and standard build kit should just be the standard drivetrain options that are listed on the SantaCruz site, eg: XT, GX, XO1 and XX1.

I'm in two minds about this competition - in some ways I don't want to tell anyone about it to improve my chances of winning, and in others the more people who enter, the better my home trails become. What a dilemma...

That's what confused me a bit too. Look, they could just offer the alu frame in lowest spec and I would still be over the moon.

Haha. I'm sure they could fish one out and dust it off for him.

Anyway Tim is part of Tokai MTB so he's surely not allowed to enter. That would be like Robert Mugabe winning the Zim Lottery.

......` Oh.

It says standard build.

There is a "S" build ( = standard build) option on all models, in the R76k region. You won't be getting a R120k bike.
