bradwentzel Posted May 29, 2018 Share Have you seen this? I am currently riding one of their framesets http://www.speedercycling.com/Carbon-Road-Disc-Fork-SC-RDF02-_p258.html I ordered this a week later. Shipped 7 May, just collected today. Speeder guys were amazing from a service standpoint. Following up daily to check if I had received it, and making the process so much easier. Hardest part was once it landed at JIMC to get it out of jail and to the local SAPO, but that is par for the course. Thanks guys for the help.

R7000 Rockshox Rl, headsest and bb incl.Just curious, but how can you say that after only 150km? Sure it's not the setup that's needing a bit of tuning?

Boerklong Posted June 19, 2018 Share Just curious, but how can you say that after only 150km? Sure it's not the setup that's needing a bit of tuning?Went from a Momsen AL529 to a Silverback Sprada 2 and never liked the full suspension.Got a chinese carbon ht and loved it as soon as I swung my leg over it. Got the opportunity to upgrade to fs again and thought I will give it another go... Just not comfortable on a fs. I really struggle with it, especially on the climbs.Rear shock pumped to 250psi and I still get 20-25% pedal bob when "locked" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boerklong Posted June 19, 2018 Share To be honest, setup needed a bit of fine tuning, but I couldn't be bothered as all I can think about while riding is how much better I feel on the ht.Problem is I need to get my sh!t together as Around The Pot 100miler and Trans Baviaans is just around the corner.

Berndawg Posted July 4, 2018 Share Hi guys, Im looking at a TT or Aero frame from Hong-Fu Bikes. Bought my road bike from them (Jenny) 10 years ago and its still running like a dream. I will troll the thread for advice on below but thought I would ask none the less. Any other manufacturers you would recommend?Any decent aero road / TT frames you can share? What is the import duties costs once it lands? Guessing its about 10 - 20% of the full cost? What else should I take into account, its been a while since I bought a bike abroad. Thanks B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks BI cant remember the import duties, but I did ask them to change the invoice for me. I cracked a Hong-Fu frame (my fault.) The replacement frame was at my post office within 5 weeks. Pretty good service if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnavel Posted July 5, 2018 Share There should be no import duties on a frame. When you place the order with the company (Hong fu etc.), there is a small currency conversion fee that all banks charge (around 1,5%). Then, once the frame arrives in SA, you pay VAT and customs on the purchase amount (total amount - shipping) which equates to roughly 16,5% with current VAT and rates.

Dubber Posted August 16, 2018 Share Hi Anyone currently dealing with HongFu at the moment? Been conversing fine up till the end of last week - but heard nothing from them since, even though I have sent a couple follow up mails? I don't think they are on holiday yet - next one is in September only I think... G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
