Cranky Posted January 17, 2008 Share Has anyone bought online from Chain Reaction Cycles? What's the service like and do you get nailed with import duties when products are shipped?

Jason Posted January 17, 2008 Share Cranky, what is it you want to buy? Have you had a look at Total Cycling http://www.totalcycling.com/?action=currency&id=ZAR&shopsession=j5rpef5f8iacng2f991fmlv481They pretty good.

Willehond Posted January 17, 2008 Share Bought from Chainreaction, but got it delivered via a buddy who lives in the UK. Great variety and stock. I am thinking of getting another bulk order with a few mates that will include consumables like chains and clusters as well as some bling! If you order big they ship for free!

Cranky Posted January 17, 2008 Share Looking at hubs or custom wheelset. Prices seem very good. They offer free shipping to SA on orders of over 250 GBP.

Chrispy Posted January 18, 2008 Share There service is very good. Import duties only on clothing and shoes. Otherwise it is just VAT.As a previous post said try TotalCycling and local you have to check Chris Willemse's website before you buy.

Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted January 18, 2008 Share cranky. go to www.totalcycling.com register and pick the parts you want into your basket (the ZAR conversion - flag) is on top of the page. They gave you a R/c value and shipping included. (go look at my order on the"technical" section of the hub... the XT Post) You will only pay a additional 14% tax when picking up from the post office. last ... Don't try and e-mail crc's or totalcycling. They dont respond to your questions. I mailed them on monday/thuesday and still no response popeye2008-01-18 00:24:19 Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/12056-buying-from-chain-reaction-cycles/#findComment-231972 Share on other sites More sharing options...
stringbean Posted January 18, 2008 Share Have bought more than 20 times from CRC including 2 wheelsets and have never had a problem with them.All i can say is they build a brilliant wheel,better than anyone here in the WC.My last set of wheels were DT240 hubs on mavic 819 rims and cost me about R4500 and that included DHL. If i am buying an expensive order i will DHL it to SA.Takes 3 days to your door and you bypass SA post office .
