Guest JPC Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 Azonic, I think your post was a bit disrespectful of the guys who pay the inflated price. They have the money, they choose to go with a product they feel is better. Your post made out as if they are morons for paying the price. As a woman, I know that i can get boots for R100 at the PQ clothing store.. Do they feel good when i put them on? yes. Do they look nice? yes.. Do they last as long? No. Maybe that is everyones reasoning when paying more?

You know why...cos I have worked hard for my money...and I will blow it any way I damn well choose. entries or bibs or bikes that actually come from the real supplier.

Li Mu Bai Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 Ok. So to match the rip-off entry fee, now you have the opportunity to buy rip-off clothing as well. Because nothing says moron quite like rubbing your naught on a R2999 chamois.priceless.

Azonic Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 ...cause I can afford to ride in comfy kit... You've never ridden in the cheap crap. I've seen many bibs over many years. From 1 panels to plenty panels. These are the best I've ever seen. But, each to his own, if you are happy to pay R3000 that's cool. I'll just buy 10 pairs for that same price, and it'll last longer than the 1 expensive bib.

By the sound of things no-one on here except me has worn the "cheap Chinese crap", yet they choose to disrespect it. If that's the logic they use to justify the inflated prices... hmm....

HandH Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 I got a cheap Chinese bib.......I'll never knock it........That thing washes the k@k outta my car...... DIPSLICK and Andrew Steer 2
Kranswurm Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 Difference of opinion you say. Funny how the guys that overpay for stuff get all sour and ugly. Who are you to call my kit crap, because its not overpriced? I never disrespected your kit. Ag haai shame. Same mentality okes that bad-mouthed the Chinese Frames when that thread started, who are now the same guys importing them. Hey, I heard that if you buy this handbag, women actually shop faster and feel allot better about themselves!!! http://www.ihandbagpros.co/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/gucci_bag-696.jpg You are the one going around calling people morons......if anything you are the sourpuss Brian Fantana 1
Azonic Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 So have you shared the info on this here hub as to where to get them so that others can enjoy this better product for less? I never said its "better". I said its cheap and the quality is awesome. As I told another Hubber that mailed me, start here: http://www.cycling-monton.com/http://www.cyclingmonton.com/http://www.monton-bicycling.com/ Once you have some designs you like, go hunt down the sellers on Alibaba.com
