  1. Eventually! What a ride. Thank you Clinton Curtis and Finish Line!
  2. My new ride!
  3. Just on a hard ride for an hour, to try and handle the fact that my wife, the pillar of our household is in high care! Must say she insisted, and again she was right.
  4. Is this a purchase? My wife said yes to a Santa Cruz! Will post pics when build is done!
  5. Thanks and definitely IDT starting today!
  6. Have torn ligament in my shoulder (and they found some old rugby related ‘broken” parts ), will only be in September when Betty will hit the trails! At least kids got me Ritchey grips for fathers day!
  7. Please check your mail via your website. I have a few items I want to get to you!
  8. Same problem, a few days ago. Vipa is safe and sound at home!
  9. This did not work. Any ideas to upload pic from Apple notebook?
  10. Merida!
  11. Morpheus, I agree, we should expect great service, I am an executive in retail, and know all about this. But, I started cycling again after 15 years and if I received this type of advice etc I might have not lost 15 years. My son and I enjoyed the whole experience, with a loan bike from Finish Line over the holiday period. We noticed a broken spoke on the rear wheel when the tire did the going flat thing; I was more than prepared to pay for the repairs. We were told, it is fine, “Did you have fun, was the only question asked!! My son has extremely long legs and huge feet, and just how he was treated with respect is an eye opener. When you ask for 13 to 14 size shoes, in a normal retail outlet, people laugh, and it is embarrassing to my son. Not once did we experience this at Finish Line. They helped me to make my kid feel normal!
  12. Again, great service. My son got his Silverback Sola 3 today, after all the before Christmas shipping issues. Price again the best by far! He was treated like the SA MTB champ by Clint. Thanks for getting the bike ready on such short notice! The FREE special setup for the long legs is appreciated. Thanks for the deal that you gave my son on the helmet he had to pay for. At this very moment he his reading every line of the instructions, and driving us nuts, to get the helmet to fit properly! Clint we appreciate answering all the newbie questions!
  13. I started cycling again after fifteen years, and was lucky to be referred to Clint at Finish line cycles. I really enjoy my Merida XT, and his recommendation was spot on for my needs and we stayed in my budget. My son has outgrown his medium Avalanche, so much so that he needed an XL. He has his heart set on a Silverback Sola 3. Clint did not have stock (the large just did not make it for those looong legs), and Clint were told it will be there Saturday. We agreed that I would come and get it today. Shipment issues and no bike, until the New Year. To my surprise I got a phone call this afternoon from Clint, to come and pickup a loaner for my son. Now he has a Merida 96 HSF 3000, as a loaner. There is one very excited 17 year old that is going to kill his dad this afternoon! It is great to get this type of service, and we will be driving from Centurion to Kempton on a regular basis. Pricing is also great! And, thanks for giving my bike a once over as well!
