    I had a long fight with one of the chat agents a while back. They have implemented "pricing by region", which explains the price discrepancies. My account was also made stukkend, and apparently I had to log a call to get it fixed, which according to them could take months. "Rather sign up with a new email address", the guy said. Really liked chainreaction, but this is a disaster. Pretty sure their SA sales are a drop in the bucket, so we are probably way down on the list

    Mens XCO on DSTV? Anyone? Only got the u23 road 🤢
  3. JacoLRoux
    Yes, riding days, not racing days 🤣

    What he said. I paid my entry and I am torn. I know Jonkers when the NorthWester is howling and sheets of rain gushes through. We can call it mountainbiking in any conditions, but I am not 30 and single anymore, I pay for expensive parts myself, so if I am trying proof something, the fact is, nobody cares. Just go and ride the trails on Monday.... 🤣

    Nsquared were in trouble long before the bike industry had issues. Years of countless lies and empty promises and often borderline stealing. Ask any bike shop that had dealings with them. It looks like it finally caught up with them. I dont wish liquidation on anyone, but hey karma, die wiel draai, goes around yada yada. Julesfield, sorry for your loss. I would not be surprised that they forced you into a small just to move some remaining stock. Probably best to move the parts to a new frame, and sell the small frame.

    Not so obvious. "able to buy some Shimano goodies for your bikes from your supplier of choice" could also mean that C$%^heat is lifting their powermoneygrab and we can all import Shimano from wherever we want. Not holding my breath! As if that wasn't happening anyway ????

    Maybe start a thread "Armourtek Owners Support Group"? I am repeating myself here, but anybody interested in ordering invisiframe frame protection?
  10. JacoLRoux
    Again, anybody interested in ordering invisiframe frame protection?
  11. JacoLRoux
    sweet, and where are they based?
  12. JacoLRoux
    Looks good, so the kit is R1999, and what does labour run you?
  13. JacoLRoux
    It is frame specific, but you can browse options here: https://www.invisiframe.co.uk/frames?___store=default You are looking at around R2k landed, with VAT and courier

    thanks for your review...

    My invisiframe frame protection survived 4 years of abuse, but its time for a refresh. Anyone keen to join on an invisiframe order, and we split the DHL express costs? Let's get 3-5 together! PM me... Ordering asap!
  16. JacoLRoux
    which dealer from UK use DHL express?
  17. JacoLRoux
    I have a been a long time user of Aramex Global Shopper, but they are up to their ears at the moment. Both myself and a buddy have been struggling to get stuff through their system, with 100 phone calls. Also got a DHL package that is slightly delayed due to less flights, but otherwise smooth. Another package through chronopost / dawnwing took 10 days from France. I would hate to drop something into the post office now!

  25. JacoLRoux
    Careful all.... I like evobikes, but this is not so much of a special! I paid R195 from Evobikes in November, so exact same price labeled as CYCLE Tour Special... check your so-called "specials" or "sale" prices.
