wonduhboy Posted June 11, 2007 Author Posted June 11, 2007 thanks Mud dee - anyone know of bike shop that's got it currently - I'm not very patient...
Mudsimus Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 Yup....I also saw it at Sportsmans! And quite a few book shops!
wonduhboy Posted June 11, 2007 Author Posted June 11, 2007 my kingdom for a name Mud Dee, my kingdom... OK, called Cajees and they have it - R580!!! is that about right?
widget Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 Yes, I bought one from "Amazon" was around R220.00 landed at my front door, Vat Postage etc - the rand was a little better then but shouldnt cost too much more now. I later saw it at a book shop for R380.00 - so Yup its available locally at a premium. Very good book, maybe a bit too technical for me, but I am not very mechanical anyway - I just bought it to understand how things work more than to fix them - but I am learning.
widget Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 my kingdom for a name Mud Dee' date=' my kingdom... OK, called Cajees and they have it - R580!!! is that about right?[/quote'] Good Heavens NO. See above - I saw it at Exclusive books in the four ways mall - R380.00 about 2 months back.
AndreZA Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 It's just over R200 at Chain Reaction. Who's ordering. http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=8249
Thug Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 If I would have known, would have got a couple of copies popped into my parcel.
wonduhboy Posted June 11, 2007 Author Posted June 11, 2007 Landing price from CRC is 340ZAR - so if a local is selling it for R380...now just to find one that is.

wonduhboy Posted June 18, 2007 Author Posted June 18, 2007 To let everyone know - found the book at Westdene cycles, R325. They also had stacks of Park tool tools (huh?) and they seemed reasonably priced.
