DJR Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Are you still forced to walk up the stairs and hunt for an exit, or can you grab your entry and GTFO the front door if you want? Ha ha, no you have to negotiate the maze, you rat!
Thomo Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 there wasnt a single bloody sign for the free parking! I thought I was the only one who "missed" the the free parking.
Thomo Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 i thought the expo was really disappointing. I've been to many similar shows in england and expected quite a lot given how big the argus is... SA is still quite limited in terms of choice and role players.Apparently cost also deters many of the local bike stores who choose to rather run "Argus specials" from their premises.
Thomo Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Why put expo discount vouchers in the goodie bag.?I don't know about the rest of you, but I only open it at home ... sometimes only days/weeks later.So last night I get home to find that vouchers from retailers where I had just bought things. carbon29er 1
walkerr Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) A special on GP4000S now is R499 each - jeez, doesn't seem long back you could get 2 for that when on as a special offer. That currency rate bites. Glad I still have some spares - might need to find an alternate brand at this rate! Good to see the High5 guys there - was just running out of supplies I brought back from UK last time I was over Edited March 7, 2014 by walkerr
Red Zone Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Got some craft bibs at a good price (I think). The Pinerello stand is worth a visit, there is a sick Bolide there, which is worth a look, even at over R200k, its quite a bike. Nothing else really stood out, much the same as every year.

How much for the Craft bib? At which store?
Paulst12 Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Where are all the pictures - show and tell time of all things new and exciting... need something to drool over while sitting at work in GP while everyone else enjoys the fairest Cape!!!
Thomo Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 How much for the Craft bib? At which store? Craft/Trek has a stand.Elite bib @ R899 (RRP supposedly R1899) and they had a cheaper one for R549 (if I remeber correctly).
rock Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 The Juliana bikes were the stand out for me...... Tankman 1

Sportsworld.co.za Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Did anyone else sample the Boston Brewery beer? To me it actually tasted like a 'sample' - uuuuugh (Maybe it's an acquired taste) Blackbeard 1
camelman Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Dissapointment: Momsen bike stand. When will companies learn that painting a bike white and pink and putting a woman's specific saddle on does not make it a woman's bike. My wife was super bummed at learning its a repainted standard model. She is quite short and have standover issues on most biked except women specific. So yes, big up to Santa Cruz for having half their display as Juliana's.
carbon29er Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 you should work in town and walk to expo Why walk all the way when you can walk to grand parade and take the free shuttle?
