Introducing the Imbi Bike Saver

[IH8MUD]

pool noodle, plus the "green stretchy Teflon reusable cable tie things" and you are set. 

  

"green stretchy Teflon reusable cable tie things"

They are cheap and 10  or so in a packet. Buy them at  4x4 shops. 

They are rubbery and will not scratch the paint. 

 

(Sorry, for the live of me,  I can not google-find the name or picture of it)   

 

 

bungee cord?

 

No - -  Bungee cord perish in the sun, lose it's elasticity after a while, and the wire hooks F-k-up your bikes paint. . . it is crappy for  this purpose.

 

This Imbi Bike Saver is much better than Bungee cord. 

 

 

 

 

The product I was referring to (which name I could not remember) is  Flexi Ties.   Distributed by Lumeno LED in 4x4-shops. 

Strong, reusable, does not scratch and lasts fever.

So Earle send me a message saying he wants to give me the new improved version with the stitching and after saying i would return the old pair he said no i can keep the old ones and he will give me a new pair as well.

What a great customer service! Thanks Earle!

Hi Juba

 

You can get the Imbi's online from either CWC or BikeMob. 

 

If you let us know where you are based, I will let you know where your nearest stockist is.

 

Thanks

Sorry not quite sure what you mean? Our stockists have told me that they have received stock.

Bought a pair at the 94.7 expo, and tested them this weekend taking my 29'r FS and FatBike on my Buzzrack 2-bike platform. Worked an absolute treat, even though I battled to get them back on after numerous post-ride refreshments! Really nice product

My apologies.

Goods were lying at the PO and they had no idea that it had arrived.  No documentation, Zip.

Thanks for the number so they were able to "find" it.

Also, many thanks for the great product.  Works a charm!

I think that Thule actually bought the brand/product.

This looks really well thought out. 

 

Edit: Looks like the cost is R300 for a set of 2.
