b-rad Posted October 11 Posted October 11 What components/parts/more specialised unique bike bits and bobs do you find very difficult to find in SA? Either from local SA importers and suppliers or perhaps if self importing the costs are no longer appealing. Asia is one thing but what about the items you want from Europe?
Bike Dewing Posted October 11 Posted October 11 There is a site with Red Shift stems and seat posts but they never seem to be in stock.. (gravel and tour is the site) dexterdent 1
Spinnekop Posted October 11 Posted October 11 At the moment trying to find this: https://r2-bike.com/SRAM-POD-Controller-Rocker-Paddle-Upgrade-black-right Second. Bearings. Seems Enduro has a pretty big monopoly and no one else really caters for the bike industry due to low volumes.
