Luck with online bike shopping?
I'm looking into a new roadbike, and I'm finding some decent
deals on the web. However, I'm wary of buying a bike risking that it might not fit me well, delivered in crap shape, delivered disassebled, etc... Anyone with experience buying full bikes from the web share their experience? Also, if you know of some sources that are dependable and have good deals, that'd be interesting too. Later. |

Re: Luck with online bike shopping?
Where are you from hermanjr?
I've seen the Cyclelab online shop in South Africa but never bought anything through it. They do provide a free lifetime bike service on any bike bought there which is pretty good. |

Re: Luck with online bike shopping?
herman i would just find a good local bike shop cause -
* they will offer refunds quiker (online stuff will take longer) *fix the bike quiker and more accountably (who will fix it if you buy it on the net you dont want to send it way) * give advice if i was doing daily rides and a weekend long ride (100-200k)? id get shimano 105 groupset,wheels etc they are good and not too pricey (middle of the range). ps. road bikes require more fiddling than mtb's  i got my norco blast with 105,mavic open wheels (105)hubs for aus $2250 which is $1125 us. this is a good start and you can always upgrade the seat and wheels etc when you like. (like i have). its a good frame |

Re: Luck with online bike shopping?
I posted a similar message in 'Equipment', but I was looking at
the specs for this KHS bike. http://www.supergo.com/itemdisplay....559&subid=7 I'm unsure of the frame or even the performance of KHS bikes in general, but The components seem great. *Even though I'm not a racer by any means, *I'd be tough in getting this type of setup from a bike store (well, the ones I've been looking at, and I've went to around 8 in my area). Please click here if you would like to reply to hemanjr regarding the KHS bike. < Vo2 > |
