Our products are designed to handle the most difficult terrain and conditions, and thus fit well with the race. This year Specialized opted to give away a voucher instead of a specific product package as we understand that the needs of riders differ.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe wanted the rider (male or female) to take home a prize that would be put to good use,\u201d continues Benkenstein. \u201cThe voucher can be used for any product available from a Specialized retailer. The lucky draw will take place on Saturday after the race. The winner has to be present to redeem his\/her prize. The Stillwater Sports team is renowned for hosting high quality, professionally run events. We appreciate this and are excited to be able to support the event organiser\u2019s efforts to grow the sport.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Riders can test ride Specialized\u2019s Levo mountain bike at registration. An electronic mountain bike, the Levo combines all Specialized\u2019s hallmark mountain bike designs with the most powerful pedal-assist technology.<\/p>\n<p>Look out for the Specialized Chill Zone after the race. For the bikes, thanks to a partner store, riders can also get services and purchase Specialized product on site.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bg-slate-100 p-5\">\n<strong>EVENT INFORMATION: FNB Magalies Monster MTB Classic<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The FNB Magalies Monster MTB Classic is ideal for all mountain bikers.
