This is going to be massive!

It started with a post on price-fixing not so long ago. And everything died a slow death. Because Hubbers like to make jokes about issues and suddenly it turns out to be a comic.


Now a police raid at the CWC-headquarters in Bellville was almost pre-empted with a post seconds after it happened?


I actually spoke to Chris sr. while he was racing towards his shop after he received the news of the raid just before he delivered a unit to a client at Pearl Valley 40 km's away. On his way to the shop I accidently phoned him and before he arrived at the scene, this post was alive and kicking.


Accidently?


Wow!


Siener van Rensburg!


Chris, on his way to the shop, organised for his attorney to be present when he arrived. On arrival there were enough police officials to man a roadblock in both directions on the N2.


Chris was also very complimentary about their actions. According to him they handled themselves in a dignified way. But why so many to look for wheels without serial numbers? 


Puzzler you for one, you've got a lot of explaining to do. You lit the fuse to a potential time-bomb. I honestly hope you're not employed by Mavic.  


Something's got to give. And I can promise you the Competition Board (the same people that fined Tiger Brands, Sasol etc. millions of rands) is not going to miss out on this one.


Maak styf die gordels. Hier is kakka aan die kom.

 

I must admit, the way Chris jr. handled himself in replying to the original post was brilliant. That's the only way you can do it. They obviously don't have anything to hide and will keep on giving a much needed service to the cycling community.

 

For the rest? It will be interesting. Within the next few month's a lot of "creepy crawly's" will come out of the woodwork.

 

Don't be surprised if you (as the cycling community) will suddenly be flooded and pick up "bargains of the century" within the next couple of weeks.

This is going to be fun!

looking forward to it, especially the way the Rand has fallen into the Toilet. Just what a developing SA needs, bad depts in USA and a shakey Ruling party...

When did the Rand gain some credit back by making it to the toilet???

As they said in their minutes..... let us "weed" them out. Naive hubbers priased the virtues of all and sundry. Did they really think these astute businessmen will sit back and not increase prices. Maybe not all in one go but slowly!!!!!! It is easy to just take out the fun on your Shimano equipped bike!!!!!!!(pun intended)
