Hi Hubers,

 

 

 

I will be around Cape Town for 1 month, and would like a help to find a cool and cheap bike shop to buy a top MTB, and partners for training.

 

 

 

I have been on monitoring the forum at items for sale, but couldn't find any thing for my size (small), so I decided to not be worry and buy on a local bike shop.

 

 

 

I don?t know how nice would be to ride by my self around Cape Town trails, and a bike shop where I could get information about partners would be great.

 

 

 

I appreciate any help by now.

 

 

 

Thanks, Leo.

Hi Leo

 

Welcome to theHub.

 

When are you going to be in Cape Town?

What kind of budget will you have to buy a mtb?

Where will you be staying & will you have transport (car)?

 

You could probably chat to a guy called Avron who runs a 2nd hand bike shop, he might agree to sell you a bike & then buy it back when you leave. Basically like renting a bike long term. Someone should have an email address for him.

 

If you're looking to join in on mtb rides, then register on Warthogs ( http://www.warthogs.org.za/).

It's a Cape Town mtb mailing list which will allow you to find out about rides to join.

 

ENjoy Cape Town!
