Default Websites that sell cycling gear at discount prices.

I know of two:
www.kiwivelo.co.nz
www.torpedo7.co.nz

Anyone know of any more for New Zealanders?

Thanks a lot,
Patrick

Why restrict it to NZ. Here's a couple in Oz. Not sure how the prices would compare.

I import parts reasonably regularly from the US and find them to be incredibly cheap.
Last order that I recieved was a pair of Dura-ace STI 9sp levers for US$ 240.
Clarence St Cycles wanted $1100 for the same thing.
Just make sure that the value doesn't exceed AU$400 and if it does get the shop to say its replacement parts under warranty or something similar.
Can't bear to pat tax on bike parts when car parts are exempt.

Cheers

Geoff

Hi Geoff, [LOL] I don't know if you can use Clarence Street as a bench mark, they usually triple the recommended retail price for any bike parts :-)

Other good sites are:
www.universalcycles.com
www.probikekit.com
www.totalcycling.com

Cheers
