justanotherbiker Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Been itching for a long time to pop by and finally went today. Really awesome "corner cafe" type feel, very different from my super commercialised LBS. Nice to meet you @Robodog! P.S. I was the guy looking at the 2015 Cube Stereo and the XT SPD pedals.

Whitters Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Hi guys I need to compliment you and let everyone know the awesome service I have received. After years of battling and changing my LBS twice I decided to try the Trailhead. It was no easy task but Donna managed to work her magic and sort out all the nagging problems on my Lefty. For the first time in years I can go for a ride without hearing squeaks and clanks. From advice to calls to update me and even a follow up call to see if I was happy these guys went out of their way to get me back onto the trails smiling. Thanks Donna and Sean you guys are legends!

Bream Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 Hi Robodog, I posted a new thread up https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/171776-overseas-visitor-looking-to-ride-innear-johannesberg-next-week/?do=findComment&comment=3249597 as I'm trying to find a ride out next week in Joberg. Can you help at all with a bike hire and perhaps a guide? Cheers, Jeff
eddy Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/171776-overseas-visitor-looking-to-ride-innear-johannesberg-next-week/They are now called Sprocket and Jack if you are planning on contacting them. I don't know if they do rides, but the Spruit is an easy option. Beware, if they offer a 5'1" 40kg guide called Amy to show you around. Run, Forrest, run. You are not strong enough ! And if they offer you a skeleton called Grant, who is not strong enough to ride a bike with a derailleur and therefore only has one gear, be afraid, very afraid. ps. I don't know if they do hire out bikes, but they are good people and deserve support http://sprocketandjack.co.za/Default.asp
CAAD4 Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 So what happened to the Trailhead? I bought a helmut from them a few months ago. Tom was very helpful. Lekker Oaks. Just curious
RockCoach Posted February 12, 2019 Author Posted February 12, 2019 So what happened to the Trailhead? I bought a helmut from them a few months ago. Tom was very helpful. Lekker Oaks. Just curious Hey dude We sold the shop 18 months ago to Sprocket & Jack. Tom is working at Giant Jhb in Greenside (old Mikes Bikes) if you want to catch up with him. I'm still coaching MTB skills and doing some oil paintings as always. Also involved in a couple of start ups... CheersSean
CAAD4 Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 Thanks for the update Sean. Good luck with your new start ups.
