Dylan Rebello (21) completed his first Absa Cape Epic with teammate Christopher Wolhuter as Team Imbuko Freewheel Cycology. The pair did well to place 25th in the Men’s category. We stole away Dylan’s bike from the Freewheel Cycology workshop in Tweede Kamp for a closer look.<\/p>\n

The Momsen VIPA is no stranger to the pages of Bike Hub. Dylan is riding the VIPA TWO frameset, the same frame we have on our VIPA long-term test bike<\/a>. Just to remind you, it’s a full carbon dual suspension full race bike designed with South African stage racing in mind. Dylan’s VIPA, however, is a bit different from the retail models.<\/p>\n

Most of the important parts on Dylan’s drivetrain are SRAM XX1 with a mixture of parts like the X01 cassette, X9 Stages (power meter) left crank arm, KMC chain, and the 32 tooth absoluteBLACK oval chainring making up the rest. The drive system is powered through a set of Look S-Track pedals. A handy Momsen adaptor allows a second bottle cage to be placed within the front triangle.<\/p>\n

The rough terrain is absorbed by a 2017 RockShox SID fork with remote lockout and a Fox Float DPS shock that allows the rear wheel 80mm of movement.<\/p>\n

Dylan rides on Stan’s NoTubes ZTR Valor carbon rims with a set of Stan’s NoTubes 3.30 Ti hubs. Rubber is provide by Vee Tire Co., more specifically the Rail Escape on the front and Rail Tracker on the rear.<\/p>\n

For the contact points, Dylan uses Momsen Design carbon handlebar with Momsen grips, a 90 mm KCNC stem, with a Selle Italia SLR saddle atop a Momsen seatpost.<\/p>\n
