  1. Hi All The above person wanted to buy my Colnago and said he will pay via PayPal and arrange for its transportation once I have received payment. He used legit PayPal email templates saying that I he had transferred the money. The email also said that he deposited an extra R6500 for transport and all of the money would deposited once I pay for the transport. Yawn. What an idiot. Watch out though, emails looked decent and his English was decent.
  2. Bicycle / Ebike suppliers / resellers beware. There is a well spoken guy by the name of "Rob Bell", if this is his real name, robbell954@gmail.com and contact number 0628065043 who is going around looking for high end bicycles and ebikes and will discuss specs, details and will say that he has been getting quotes elsewhere. He will then subsequently get in touch and request a pro-forma invoice and then send proof of payment. He will then give a long story about how the bike is being gifted to a professional rider who is going through cancer recovery and wants to get back into riding. The "professional rider" that he mentioned is the 702 radio presenter Xolani Gwala who has subsequently passed away in November. This is a sick bastard using people's details who have passed away for personal gain. Keep a close eye on the payments this festive season guys. Have a good one Gremeltech Ebikes Team.
