Spud Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 I went past Comobike earlier and see that the doors are very firmly shut. Anyone heard anything? I hope this isnt another bike shop in trouble.
Dirty Twin Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 See thread "Hubber seeks work" PPWTF used to run the shop. . Dirty Twin2009-07-28 07:16:13
Azonic Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Comobike, I believe, is run by the same people that ran 360 Cycles. That shop failed, so not surprised that Comobike would fail as well. I actually expect it. I can't recall ever seeing anyone who work(ed) at 360 or Comobike actually cycling? If it isn't the sport you love, why try make money from it? Hey, I have an idea, I'm gonna open a golf shop and make a bundle!
Dirty Twin Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Hey Azonic Arme ou Simon het darem so nou en dan gery en hy is n' moerse nice ou. Hoe gaan dit met die trail running?
Wernervdmerwe Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Pity, still wanted to order a set of wheels from them!
PPWTF Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 I have been contacted by suppliers seeking clarification of the situation regarding Comobike PE. To counter any speculation, Comobike PE has closed it's doors voluntarily I have just spoken with one of the store owners and reconfirmed this, prior to posting on the hub. Should anyone wish to PM me regarding business, please do so, and I will forward all such inquires to the store owners. Simon PPWTF2009-07-29 09:34:29
Spud Posted July 28, 2009 Author Posted July 28, 2009 Not true Jo! I saw John riding most weekends and he is a keen triathlete, and Simon (shop manager) is a mountain biker. Just spoke to Simon and he doesnt want to say to much except that he is desparately looking for a job!
Azonic Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Hey AzonicHoe gaan dit met die trail running? Gaan baie goed, my hardloop kom baie lekker aan. So rukkie terug nog 24 minutes odd gevat vir 5km, het hom al afgekry na onder 22 minutes. Ek gaan maar skaars op die bike wees tot na The Otter. Bene nog so biedjie styf van die naweek se myle, so hoop bene is reg vir more aand se draf.
gummibear Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 They were busy taping the windows on Saturday when i went there.It looks like this is the second shop in PE to close now. Not to be funny but i wonder when those De Rosa and Williers will be auctioned.
Conti Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 sorry to hear Simon.was always nice chatting and dealing with you.good luck
rory21 Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Comobike advert still showing at bottom of page http://c3.openx.org/3adbd6e2798820f81ce8503c35965f05.gif
Fleming Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 This is a pity. Been there a few times and always had great service.
kocourek Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Always sad to see something like this not make it I see Coimbra (spelling?) in 3rd ave was closed today, I don't get to be in that area often, are they belly up?
rad006 Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Are they the same as the comobike overseas?Meaning I cant order from them anymore?
