Indoor trainer price GOUGING during / after lockdown...

[Cookie88]

So, after some of the clarifications last night any idea on whether these lockdown IDT's will be able to be delivered?

If you purchased during lockdown, your best bet is to contact the supplier you dealt with to hear directly from them if they are now able to deliver within the next couple of days/week.

 

Dont waste your time on 'hearsay' GO straight to the source! Thats just my opinion.

Really glad I bought a Kickr Core on sale during the lockdown but hope I can pick it up soon. I’ll have to see if I “enjoy” it but I suppose it will come in handy on those cold/wet winter days.

 

Where did you buy it from?

Hi all

On a related question, my Kickr blew up. I have tried everything that has been asked of me. Does anyone know where i can get this service? Distributors aren't open so i am looking for options. I can deliver the kickr to the doorstep as long as it is within Gauteng.

Let me know

Though these repairs will probably only happen at Level 3 ....

I see some guy is advertising a second hand Gen1 Kickr for 'immediate drop off' for R14999.......

 

Yoh......

I saw that and contacted him to make an offer which he declined saying he has major interest and my offer was too low. I mean a second hand Kickr 1 is roughly 5 years old so how much could it possibly be worth if it was used often? Let the bidding season begin!

It's worth whatever people are willing to pay.....

must be worth much less now that okes can ride a quick argus or laps every morning

agreed but there must be a limit to the madness that some guys are asking for their IDT's

maybe was the wrong time to sell...should have tried selling 2 weeks ago

Totally agree. 2 to 3 weeks ago people would pay ridiculous prices to get one out of desperation. Now that ship has sailed unfortunately.

Is there any more news on developments with regards to the delivery of the 'Lockdown' IDT's?

 

My sources tell me there is some industry lobbying taking place but not sure how reliable this information is...

I can give you an update based on several conversations i have had with owners of bike shops

There are Kickrs and Tacx at Durban Port and suppliers but none will be shipped as there are no permits. Basically either we get to level 3 OR our precious minister allows e-commerce for sporting goods or whatever this falls under even at level 4.

Alot of bike ships have "expected delivery" May 20th or whatever on their website if you pre-order. Not sure how they can commit to this when it is almost totally out of their control
