Anyone know where i can still get these? Thule sell something similar but at a ridiculous price

Hi Bira. Yes we did do a deal with Thule on this product so it is now exclusively available through them. If you don't come right, have a look at Mellow Velo cycles in Fourways, they had a set or two in store when i was there last in June.

"deal" wait, does that mean that Thule bought the company/product or just licences the design? 

 

looks like company just went quiet

Hi Shebeen.

 

The Imbi Bike Saver was a product/brand of BIKALOT, without being able to go into the specifics of it here, we have a deal with Thule and where they now produce and sell the Thule Bike Protector.

Hollow pool noodle R45 at my local china town. 

I can cut them up and ship to you for R150 a piece

@Bira now the proud owner of these ‘vintage’ pre-corporate sell-out babies. Enjoy!

This works super well for me. 

R229 for the win!
