Found what I'm looking for at Probikeshop. Anybody use them before ?

 

Hells yeah! Used them 3 or 4 times. One of my favourite online stores!

 

Often cheaper than CRC, and orders arrive in 2 days (from France). Only catch is the hefty shipping charge (I use the UPS 40 Euro option). But if your order is big enough it is totally worth it (and you may still end up paying less than CRC with free shipping).

yeah... PBS has left my cheque account emmaciated a few times. But when your order arrives after just 2 days (which even some local online stores can't get right), your financial concerns melt away!

 

Plus with the UPS shipping they often (twice in my case) just declare the parcel as "bicycle parts" so I landed a TLD D3 at R2400 (CRC sold them for double that... before VAT and duty).

ooh tyres!

 

Look at their prices on Schwalbe tyres (or any for that instance). I'm not sure what they're at now, but PBS often has great deals on tyres. I've picked up MKII and X-King tubeless tyres for R330ea (landed)

Anyone want a 38 rear chain ring for the ultra low budget 1*10 conversion?

Lol, not working out for you?

On the contrary. But I've sourced something that's a little more sexy/expensive.

How much?

R400. They normally cost $50 plus the cost of getting them here.

bike-components.de have good prices and a good range on tyres and pretty much everything else. It works out pretty well if you put in a big order as shipping is a flat rate of 20 EUR. I ordered some magic mary super gravitys for 31 euros each. Should have ordered a few more bits and pieces from them while I was about it.
