if you want superb mechanics, swing by Action Cycling at 30 Waterkant street. Marco and Devon are the beesknees.

 

for a droolfest, visit the Swift bikes store Green point main road.

CWC for a wide variety, but I would go to the Tygervalley branch for a bigger selection. Check out Cyclefunatics in Durbanville ss well for some Spez goodies.

I've heard of retired Americans making Winnebago pilgrimages to McDonald's around the country. Are you starting a cycling trend here? Cycle Store Tours.

If i was starting a trend it'd be 'Cycling Store Robbery Tours'

Buy all the tools you need from Mica hardware.

Only need to get the specialist tools from LBS.

You will save a fortune!

Revolution cycles, cycle lab, Cwc, to name a few in the town area, there are more but forgot their names.

We are spoilt for choice in the northern suburbs

CWC if you want a shopping experience, cyclelab if you wanto pay more than you should, Evobikes if you want specifics.

Revolution cycles if you want some boutiqueness.
