Cajees cycles any good?

[Circuit Breaker]

I saw a beautiful 2014 Giant Anthem 1 at Cajees for 25k.

Is this a good purchase?

I know the price is good, but still I feel hesitant.

Some advice would really be appreciated..

Go in, take it, pay for it, don't ask questions, don't expect a bike fit. Takes you 10 min, and you out of the shop.

[Butterbean]

As long as you don't expect knowledgable service, know exactly what you want, and exactly what price you should pay, don't e worried.

 

Don't take it back for it's "complimentary" first service.

 

Check bike all over to make sure all original components like brakes, cassette, etc are there and match.

 

Otherwise, go for it.

I understand your hesitation, BUT... Do what NicNac said...

Its a good price, and as long as you don't expect too much afterwards, you should be good

[DanielJhb]

As long as u don't need any after sales service, upgrade advice or a bike fitting - go for it. Cajees are generally 10% cheaper than linden cycles etc especially with 2014 stock they have great deals.

Make sure it's the right size, then buy it, and post pics.

If you're going to the one in Alberton, stay far away. I don't think they know the first thing about bicycling, cyclists or what we like. They're overpriced, **** comes back in a worse condition than when it went in. Check prices online before you go.

They will give you a 2015 for that price and they will give you a 2014 for 23500... And yes take the bike but ask for a discount and a free bottle cage

I bought a Giant TCR road bike from Cajees Fourways a while back. I've had no issues. They included a bike fit, which was quite accurate when I compared the reach and seat height to the Scott I'd been riding for a while. I have no regrets, but I never had a reason to go back to them to test their after sales service.

Just make very sure of the bike's components! Print a spec sheet from Giant's website and take it with to compare.

 

Like everyone else said - go in, pay for the bike, get it and leave.

that particular shop you're in question are more "Sales-focus", so if you're hesitant or having second thought (or other pre-purchase guilt), rather spend some time to do some research to see what you'll be getting before making any commitments (to a purchase)

 

like many has mentioned, there's are plenty of bike-shops in Jozi to get advises and compare prices.

Go to the one in Bedfordview they are helpfull and will give you a discount on the bike I've dealt with them for 10 years and no issues ever and they always assist me

I really appreciate all ur advice. Feel a lot more comfortable. Want to do my first stage race next year Joberg2c on this bike.

Lekker man. F*ck around you get killed. As for Cajees. I'd never let them work on my bikes but if the price is right go,go,go! ! ! !

I got my new Titan from the store in Bedfordview about 3 weeks ago. What I love about them is you can haggle on the price.

I purchased the Titan 29er, Thule 3 bike rack, MTB shorts, gloves, shoes and clips, and a few smaller things. In total I got about a R4.5k discount.

 

What I didn't like, is they did not finish the bike preparation properly. Handle bars were lose when they brought the bike out to me. And the following day as I was about to head off on the Modderfontein trail with my mate, the back wheel came off.

 

I will definitely go back. I enjoyed dealing with them, but I would double check any work they do. For my own safety [emoji4]

Bought my first bike from there as a very NOOB MTBr, I ended up wih a bike that was two sizes to big, was treated like a piece of meat when I had an issue with the bike after a weeks riding. If it was the last bike shop on earth, I'd gladly take up running. Find yourself a local GIANT dealer in your area, pay a bit extra if needed for someone to take the time to help you out.
