Frame transport Gauteng to CT

[Alouette3]

I'm wanting to buy a frame from a hubber in Roodepoort. What would be the best and most cost effective way to get it down to Cape Town? Haven't posted such a big item before, so not sure how to go about it.

 

It's not an expensive frame so don't want to break the bank either.

Have used SA post office's speed services and it have worked really well and is reasonably priced.

Hi ..try the Cyclelab to Cyclelab option ...they charged me 240 rand from CL Lakeside to CL somewhere in Jozi ...can't remember which one tho ...hope this helps

The Cyclelab option seems reasonable.

 

Have the same question at the moment but a complete bike.

 

Time Freight

First Freight

Cyclelab

 

All seem to know exactly how to ship a bike.

 

Time to get prices.

Freight innovations are pretty good. I use them at least a couple of times a month to get bikes between CT and Pretoria.
