  1. Guys i really appreciate your replies, but please post also where i can look for this stuff in JHB. I don't know many bike shops or almost none. The shop close to me is in Edenvale, but it is a very small shop and they did not have any of the stuff that you are recommending. I would like to visit a big shop with as much as varieties as possible. I know there is a big shop in Boksburg, Catjies or something similar but never been there. Would they have all or most of the options that you are referring to. Thanks.
  2. Absolutely agree with you Rox, now what that lube will be and where to find it. You are saying that Motorex is not worth the money. Funny such a big brand oversees. Speedguy, do you know where to get Rock n Roll Extreme or Gold for that matter?
  3. Sorry, just to add. The only brand that i knew in the LBS was Motorex, but hellishly expensive and did not feel like spending that much. Does any one try them before and any thoughts. Was also the only biodegradable one that they had in the shop.
  4. Thanks again guys. So went to my LBS last night. They did not have Purple Extreme. Was told the supplier does not bring it into SA any more. If some one knows where in east side of JHB i can look for it would be great. The owner recommended White Lightning Clean Ride saying they are using it in the shop all the time and it is good. I can not compare it to anything else that is why i would not know, but bought it for now. The shop did not have a lots of varieties and non of the brands that i was familiar with or you guys suggested here. To Patches, where are you getting your Motul from if you don't mind me asking, i would like to try it. It is very famous oil brand oversees I think French for engines. Have not seen it here. To RudoJ the same. Where can i look for Rock n Roll Extreme Blue East side of JHB if possible. To hayleyearth: Personally I'm waiting with huge interest to read about your results. Where are you going to post your results? In this thread or some other place. P.S. After i lubricated and left it for few hours, went outside for few spins. Bike felt great and was changing gears smoothly. But definitely would like to try other lubricants as well. Happy riding.
  5. Thanks a lot for all the replies. To singlespeed guy, where can i look for the purple extreme and what is a fair price to pay for it. Also if someone knows if WD 40 or GT85 are avail locally.
  6. Hi guys, looking for an advice. Sorry if it is been asked before, but i could not find it. Need some lubricant for my chain for dry weather. Really not familiar what is avail locally. Looking for a good anti static one. Price and place to buy it from will help also. Thanks in advance and happy riding.
  7. Thanks a lot. Unfortunately their site is useless. Dealer list is empty and there is no contact numbers or e-mail. Pathetic. Maybe some one can point me to a Giant dealer in eastrand area of Joburg. Are there any oversees online shops that will deliver the bike to SA? Thanks.
  8. Sorry forgot to ask. Who is the official Giant distributor in SA? Maybe i can try directly through them.
  9. C'mon guys, someone, anyone? How about bringing the bike from oversees? Are there any good, trust-able shops online, that will deliver to SA? Thanks
  10. Hi everyone, i'm new to the forum and i do hope this is the right place to ask. If not i'm sorry and would like to ask the moderator to move my post to the right place. Now the question: I'm looking to buy a Giant Roam 1 hybrid bike and don't seem to find it locally looking on the net. Would really appreciate if someone can point me to the right direction and where i can find this bike in SA. http://www.giant-bicycles.com/en-US/bikes/model/roam.1/7507/44080/. If you think that are some better options please share your opinion. But after reading on the net i do believe this would be the best bike for what i want to do. Thanks in advance for all the help.
