Johnny Lawless Posted June 15, 2020 Share Give Black Sheep Bikes at Hoogekraal a shout... they do YT in SA and I'm sure they can help with that burning sensationOnly in theory unfortunately, me and some friends have been been asking for the last 6 months but to no avail. Blacksheep has to wait for YT to setup their website for RSA sales again. You need to buy directly from their site and Blacksheep is simply there to service YT’s. Frustrating situation.

DR ◣◢ Posted June 15, 2020 Share Aha. So basically import yourself and pay the premium on duties. Edit: The site keeps directing me to https://za.yt-industries.com/ There goes that idea. I can't even look at the specs. Edited June 15, 2020 by Maxxis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blacksheep will just tell you the same but perhaps they know something more around when this will be. I’ve tried to contact YT directly but no replies. Kinda bummed about the experience unfortunately Edited June 15, 2020 by Pyka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiverInTheRoad Posted June 15, 2020 Share Local dealer support is highly underrated in bike purchasing. Although as far as I know YT typically does not have any proprietary parts. Standard bearings sizes etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansolo Posted June 26, 2020 Share I'm sure they would appreciate a call 22:00 at night when I'm doing "research", how difficult can it be to stop redirecting us to a blank website. I'm not necessarily in the market for a YT but this doesn't really inspire confidence in their operation. give them a shout out on +27 79 877 2071 This doesn't inspire confidence for their operation.

DR ◣◢ Posted June 26, 2020 Share The lack of support and the fact that I can't even access the site for first hand specs and geometry information pushed me away from a brand I really like. The boutique brand that I am going with has all the information on their international site and their local agents are super helpful and informative. The worst part is now waiting for my rolling chassis to arrive at my door. Johnny Lawless 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst part is now waiting for my rolling chassis to arrive at my door. I agree and am also really disappointed in YT in this regard. If not to individuals then just at least provide some helpful info to your "partners"...in this case Black Sheep as they also have no clue as to when, what, how. PS, by clearing some cookies/cache there is a way to get onto the German site to view the specs but that just made me even more miffed that I can't get hold of one so perhaps stay away ;D DR ◣◢ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR ◣◢ Posted June 26, 2020 Share I tried with all the hacks I could (short of a VPN) to get onto the site. No go. Also had no luck with Black Sheep. Left messages on email, Facebook, and voicemail. No call back in about a week now. It's not like I can quickly drive to them and pop in for a chat. Myth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Lawless Posted July 3, 2020 Share https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/dual-suspension-bikes/412551/yt-jeffsy-cf-comp-1-small I worked it out, if I chop off my feet above the ankles I should fit on this, lol. What a beauty at a steal of price....looks brand spanking new as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
