The Ouzo Posted September 14, 2022 Share Any one heard of these bikes ? https://simplesam.co.za/ I was at Thule a short while ago and they had a few of these displayed with Thule accessories. Nice simple commuter bikes. Looking at the website they're not badly priced either. South African company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MORNE Posted September 14, 2022 Share The’ve been around for a while. Chances are if you see a shiny, colour matched ‘fixey’ hanging from a coffee/cafe wall - it’s a simple sam. A lot of designers spec them for that reason. It was very trendy a few years ago. You used to find them on the walls or displays of Due South too before they got cancelled by TFG. edit: those are all simple sams Edited September 14, 2022 by MORNE ChrisF and Fisan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esCape-ist Posted September 14, 2022 Share I bought one a few years ago. Still going strong. Its a great commuter bike for around town. Very “simple” low maintenance and well put together. I see they have tourer bikes now with claris gear sets and an e-bike model in the works. Glad to see a small local business growing like this. Im very happy with mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the SS there is an old steel bike sitting at my parents that will one day land up at my place and be converted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
