Here’s another thing...info.

Looking for details on parts and specs I used to be able to ‘see’ what’s out there on CRC but Google links now take you to... the menu, not the CRC page, which is now obviously blocked. Sure, I’m finding other sites but sheeeet it just shows how far behind SA online retailers are. It is no help in saying it’s a crankset or bb if I need to know stuff like spindle width and SIZE of crankset (teeth AND lever length).

And if stuff is going to cost 12 and I’ve only got 6 my LBS hasn’t got the interest or time to go through options to try make it work like I do. Besides I WANT to do this myself.

So where’s the info of what is actually available?

People we are treated like sheeple.

Buy that bike there and when it’s just a little bit broke, well, go buy a new one ????

Can get Shimano from Aliexpress, and they don't care who, what, where, local market bla bla bla

 

If only our dear customs / postal service could get their act together.

Aliexpress and Aramex will at least get things here quickly. Perhaps that's an option?

my experience, even with aramex they get faster into the country but i've still had parcels sit at most just under 2 weeks with them.

You should stop submitting R100 invoices for carbon frames then :)

The joys of living in the EU.

 

Ordered yesterday morning and arrived now.

 

LBS told me 8-10 days if they ordered the parts for me.LBS offered 5% discount and Bike24 still 15% cheaper[emoji85][emoji15]
