Hairy Posted June 12, 2020 Share that is still usiness as usual. They just don't post the minutes on BikeHub anymore...I know we are going off topic here ... but that whole situation where they got fined for price fixing .... so we pay more for Cool Heat products, then they get fined for this, and who do you think ends up paying long term for the fine ... I am sure "we" do. DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headshot Posted June 12, 2020 Share I cannot understand why anyone would take their bike to a shop like CWC ( large, supermarket style) when there are so many great small shops out there with owner/mechanics you can actually talk to. Places like The Bike Park (Clint) or William' s Bike Shop ( William) and I'm sure there are many more. tinmug 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are ways, like global shopper etc, but the downside is you get taxed twice..... Â I'm hoping a business trip to London in Feb next year still takes place..... planning on brining a suitcase full of goodies back from CRC that you can't officially buy through them in S.A. thanks to cool heat Hairy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
