    What would you like me to say? We sat down with the guys from Darkhorse wheels and sorted things out. No hard feelings.
  2. Mr Mulebar
    Thanks and yes WE are for real!

    Didn't realise I was out of line calling people on the Hub "Hubbers" I unreservedly apologise to anyone offended by the use of this term.

    There's no problem, just clarifying that as Dark Horse Brands we are not affiliated to Dark Horse Wheels just as we are not affiliated to Dark Horse Comics, Investments, Finance, Distributors etc. Not sure why some hubbers have got there panties in a knot about the fact that we're just trying to clarify who sells what.

    We only found out about Dark Horse Wheels after we had registered our company and started communicating to IBD's. As a Limited company we are registered on a different system to Dark Horse Wheels as a Closed Corporation, hence their name did not come up and Dark Horse whatever is by no means original. There are about 20 other Dark Horse Companies registered in SA, we chose the name as it resonates with where we feel our brands are in the market place. Can you please explain what bully BS are you referring to? Surely stating that we are not involved with Dark Horse Wheels is merely stating a fact to clarify any confusion?

    That's higher on my priority list than a website :-)

    Check your mail.....

    For the time being yes.

    Our initial focus is on re establishing product supply to the market and building a dealer network worthy of the Trek brand. A bit vague I know, but you really don't want to know all the nuts & bolts, suffice it to say that our goal is to set the benchmark for service levels in the industry. WRT warranty claims consumers can contact us directly to start the claim process, but it will need to be finalised through a cycle dealer in the Trek network. At this stage we will continue to support the riders that are currently riding on Trek. Anything else?

    We did a name search when looking at names and Dark Horse Wheels did not even register.......

    It's on my to do list. Just got bigger fish to fry at the moment

    Hi guys, There is no change in company name, Dark Horse Brands is an entirely new company that has been awarded the distribution rights for Trek & Bontrager after they decided not to renew their contract with Royalty Sports. Some staff that were working with the Trek Brand before have moved across to Dark Horse to try and maintain some continuity. We are well aware of the situation wrt the distribution of Trek & Bontrager in SA, as is Trek and we are committed to re-establishing the Trek brand as a major player in SA. PS: We are in no way involved with Dark Horse Wheels.

    Interestingly I didn't notice a huge improvement when going from a 9mm QR to the 15QR standard, until I test rode a 29'r with a 9mm QR recently and there was a huge difference! Can't believe anyone would still opt for an open dropout fork on a 29'r it's just retarded when compared to the 15QR system

    Most of the Bluetooth Heart Rate straps use Bluetooth 4.0(Smart) which is not compatible with all Android based phones.
