Sorry Ricado,
I don't know about Melbourne. I think my LBS can get them here (at a price!) and with the exchange rate, it wouldn't be worth it for you... Yes, even though the Aussie is stronger (The Green Back is weak for us). I am over in Melbourne in a couple of weeks, hence the thread Hijack... Oh, and I have a pair of Pearl Izumi's. They are the best! Well, the only shorts I have ever had actually, and I love them. |

If your LBS can get a 2006 pair, size L, red stiching I would be happy to pay for them and your bringing them to Aust. I would apppreciate that very much. Thanks Quickbuck, please let me know. My old ones are about to seriously embarrass me Regards Ricardo

Hi Ricado, I can only ask. The worst answer is NO, so no real harm in asking. I seriously don't want to see you embarresed! Will you be able to get into the city (CBD) between 26-29 no worries? |

If you're going to part with that much nickel, better to see Damian down at Assos in South Melbourne. If the specials are still running, the lycra knick with uno chamois is $99 off at $150.

Hi Ricado, I will try my very best. Will prefer if you can pay me the cash, as it may be a bit dodgie if you pay the shop for me, and for some reason I don't show up... Not everything in this world is a sure thing... See, if I buy them, and don't catch up with you, then luckey I am a size large too, so not a biggie that way. Of course they will be brand new for you in the first instance. Cheers Aaron |

Hi again Ricado,
Well I rang the LBS, and very sorry, no luck! They don't have any in stock, and didn't think they would be able to get some! Are http://www.pearlizumi.co.nz/product.asp?pid=419&gid=12 the ones? Check out the NZ price!! $A315. I am heading to Wellington Tomorrow, so might get to check out the Bike Shops there. |

Na, that is $A315! $NZ330 according to the site. Kiwi is at 90cents Aussie at the moment. Yes, it does seem "Up There", especially as you got them for $220. And, yes it is for the shorts. BTW: Hoping the $ gets a little bit stronger in the next week, but our Finance minister, and the reserve bank are doing their best to ensure it doesn't! |
