New John O Conner kit!!


Zac.A

Recommended Posts

I've got mates that live Atlantic side who prefer to use BMC for servicing or Revolution cycles in town for servicing/purchases as they feel they get better service and value for money. I have no issue with JOC, I remember him when he worked for Willie Engelbrecht and personally found him abrupt and I preferred dealing with Willie.

 

I take it you work their Zac?

The Castelli bibs are great, but like most manufacturers, its about quantity and not so much quality. According to manufacturers like castelli and others, kits and especially bibs are not made to last. They are also expensive cos in most cases they are made outside the EU, which unfortunately means 40 % duties.

 

thats the same for almost every brand.

anatomic is similarly priced and it's from SA so no 40% tax.

anyway, whats the point of posting negatively, if you don't like it, then, thats it.

You see Mr Brian Waters.. no matter what *** you come up with to "BAN CYCLISTS FROM CERTAIN ROADS" we will still gather to discus the correct price of bibs. And gloves. :drool:

 

Where does this come from ??

But on the actual coast it's only JOC, BMC and revolution are, as you said, both in town.

I dont work there, but they are one of the bike shops I shop at, in fact I dont work, (see my profile :) )

Of course JOC will be more expensive because of its location.

I sent a bike in to BMC and the day i got it back my gears were slipping, not suggesting they don't give good services as i have had before, perhaps just a lapse in concentration, happens anywhere.

Sorry what!

 

all imported brands will be more expensive because of the tax.

anatomic which is local has a similar price and it doesn't get taxed so maybe it's overpriced?

Aah, just seen your profile Zac. Your 14 and you enjoy the bling factor of JOC and all the models hanging around Newport/pepenero/wakame & wafu. No harm in that!

 

Just watch out for Brianwaters on Beach road, he might just run you over...
