RA Cycles USA dropped the Specialized Brand!


Recommended Posts

Posted

So with the change in distributors in SA I stared to get nervous as to whether I would receive my new S-works Epic 29er before the Cape Epic. So I decided to maybe try RA Cycles the largest distributor of specialized in the US, for 2012 they will not carry specialized due to relationship issues around service, warrenties etc.

 

So now i am really nervous to think that specialized will do their own distribution in SA!!

 

Is my new bike a pipe dream? :unsure:

Sorry to snap, crackle, pop your pipe dream, but that bike might not be made out of pipe or any kind of steel...

That's very good news if it's true! Cut out the middle man = better prices for us?

Always someone with a wooden spoon on the hub. :D RA cycles were selling specialized bikes online(some to here in SA and someone here in the western cape)

After numerouse warnings from Spez usa they continued so spez has pulled the plug on selling to that shop.Seems like there are a few people crying over spilt milk.Are you one of them sharky :D

All you basically wanted to say was that you are getting a S-works 29er and that you are doing the epic and you did not know how to tell everybody.

 

Thanks for the shorter version. :lol:
