Hi Guys
Prior to the sharp rise in our exchange rate I looked at buying STI brake levers and other components. A set of 105 levers was priced at about R1350-00 at that stage. After the sharp rise the same lever at the same store was priced at R1850-00. I wonder if the new strenghtening Rand will bring these prices down. All the shops were very quick to increase their prices. Some were even loathe to supply a quote during the time when mr Fowler was closed. Cyclequipshop.co.za whose prices were the cheapest at that stage even stopped advertising prices. I can almost be sure that all the shops and suppliers will now plead innocense and claim to have pruchased when the exchangerate was at the highest!!!!!!
Keep those wheels spinning and always buy at the cheapest place!!!!!!!
