Heard this morning that City Bike Depot has made the call to close its doors.

More info here. There will be a sale tomorrow.

Quite sad about this as Hugh ran a good operation.

XT master cylinder / lever failed (piston jammed on) on my Rumblefish not long into a ride on Sunday which locked the rear brakes on. I had to release the banjo fitting to get mobile and without rear brakes the 435m decent from Brokers Nose (Illawarra Escarpment) to Bulli was "mildly interesting" but that is another story.

Hard to shop local when CRC have these at crazy prices!
Use discount code EXTRA10 for another 10% off already crazy prices on suspension forks.

Got 2015 R/S Pikes RCT3 150mm Solo Air 29 for $748. My LBS stated it costs them over $1000 after duties taxes etc!

I think I've been ripped off - really cheesed off!!!

I bought ay-up lights from user named marto71 who advertised on this site 3 weeks ago. After a few phone messages we agreed on a price and I paid via EFT, I was really looking forward to getting the lights as I planned to use them for the Mont 24hr race 2 weekends ago.

To date no parcel has ever arrived - he said his daughter was posting the items on Monday 20 Oct (should have been express post as advertised) reason he was late posting was because he needed to make sure everything worked but the ad stated they work perfectly fine and nothing wrong with them.

Duty on a bike

Has anyone here ever bought a bike from overseas,and if so what sort of costs are incurred when it arrives?I thought you might pay 10% on it which would still make it reasonable,just wondering if there are any hidden extras,cheers

Bike week at Aldi

It's cheap it's cheerful, but mostly its cheap! My pick is the work stand but I would have a closer look at the tool kit if I didn't already have one. The sunglasses are pretty good too, exchangeable lenses https://www.aldi.com.au/en/special-buys/wednesda...
