Beating the system - the cycling commuting section
by Runjikol » Tue Jul 12, 2011 9:59 pm
Just tonight I've seen the Spot Ajax Belt. I like the styling but it's not a popular brand - let alone a "style" of bike that can be found in Australia with any ease. I want a test ride and likely a purchase. Does anyone know of Spot dealers who are responsive and effective at serving potential customers?

Thanks Chef/Phil. I've contacted them. Hopefully they can help out a Melbournian.

That is a great little mountain bike shop that does local rides and has great coffee, possum fur socks, merino wear and advice on touring.

Possum fur socks From NZ I presume? No love for our cute little critters over there

Yes, from NZ. These ones I think. 33% possum fur, 34% wool and 33% nylon, they are gorgeously soft and warm.
