  1. Just on the topic of the whole price-fixing scandal, I went to a bike shop today and need to replace my cassette. I asked how much they were and for an XT cassette they quoted R2500. Now I thought that this was a little ridiculous seeing as though I had looked at CWC a few times before. There are two bike shops in my area, and so I booked my bike in at the (expensive) one just to have the gear cables changed. I went to the other shop and the cassette was 4 times cheaper. Now that is utterly ridiculous. How can bike shops want to fool people like that? That profit margin is huge, even with the argument that they need to support themselves. In conclusion, I will not support Tony Impey any longer. I do not believe in extortion. The prices quoted is not the correct price for a XT cassette.Perhaps a mistake was made when you inquired about the price.Give Tony the benefit of the doubt and give him another call,. sm
  2. Just be patient Shimano are coming out with some amazing new products this year.You wont be sorry and the wait will be worth it. sm
  3. You can convert standard rims and tyres to a Tubeless system like Joes No Flats at a reasonable cost with reliable results. I changed over two years ago and have not had a single puncture or issue since. rgds sm www.coolheat.co.za
