  6. I had not so good service from them i was also told that the racing ralphs that comes with the merida xt carbon edition could manage the tubeless conversion i also requested new pedals to be fitted i was told to come back after 2days to take delivery of the new bike so that they can do the tubeless conversion and fit my speedo and pedals(even though i was told to come fetch my bike its ready and driving all the way from vanderbijlpark) i left there for 2 more days. I came in on the saturday only to find nothing was done and the tyres can not handle the tubeless conversion i requested self sealing tubes to be fitted instead eand they fitted them for me only to find that on my 2nd ride was left with a flat with 2 small holes so much for self sealing tubes i was told you can also fit a plastick strip inside the rim to help prevent small thorns penetrating the tube they never recomended anything like that we are not all experts so their input and advise would help us a lot.i spent my 30k there and left Pumped up to go for my first ride and to my diapointment i could even select my last 3 gears being a newby i had no clue to fix it after one of my buddys showed me how to adjust the jockey i was happy because i didnt have to go back to fourways for the 3rd time to fix something that should have been checked on a pdi Cycle lab fourways needs to pull their socks up they also scratched my handlebar when they fitted the speedo i had to cover it with my light bracket to stop swearing everytime i look at the scratch Cycle lab fourways lost me as a customer and would encourage no one to go the Big up to merida this bike is awesome........
  7. 29 is the way to go uphills and rough terrain is a breeze
  8. Go to www.extermelights.co.za best prises up to 3000 lumen
  9. I feel the same about cycle lab fourways they did the pdi on my new merida xt edition so well on the first ride i couldnt even select 3of my gears they scratched the handlebar when they fitted the speedo i had to fit my light bracket over it just to not get pissed everytime i look at it..... thats just some of my complaints the rest i wont even mention....just dont buy a new bike there thats all i say....
