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.

Cylcle lab also offer a 30 day test ride garuntee

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

I posted a similar message in 'Equipment', but I was looking at
the specs for this KHS bike.

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).
