So the Pactimo site seems to still be getting set up, you can't find pricing info even though it's there on the tool bar....

 

Anyone any experience with these guys, is the kit pricey with the Rand / $ rate plus customs doing their thing etc....

 

Gotta say it looks good stuff, but is it worth the difference between say Velotex? I know the perception is that SA made (or SA branded but made in China) gear is not that hot, compared to imported stuff, but to be fair Cape Storm actually manufacture here in SA and it's pretty decent quality material and finish.

Shew and now I see MTN are going to be using Merckx bikes. Has DR finally pissed off all the local suppliers??

The Pactimo kit is of an exceptional quality and the cost is comparable

with what is being produced locally but with a far superior quality. 

With respect to the local manufacturers, the R&D funds spent by a

Pactimo are evident in the quality of the cycling kit they are

producing.

 

The good news is that there is now a Pactimo agent in SA and this brand of kit

will be available shortly.  Look out for the new distinct Team MTN road

team and MTB team kits being launched this month as well.

Good and well but I'm supporting local guys. Love my Anatomics and Cape Storm.
