How cheap?? Im robbing you surely?!

Hi all,

Ive been trawling the internet for bikes and narrowed my search down to Canyon and Cube. Anyway, this isnt my point. This is :

Ive found this website that is selling 2011 bikes from Cube, Cannondale, Lapierre, Giant - you name it, they have a 2011 bike. And the reason I'm curious?? They are selling them for nearly £1000 LESS than any UK retailer!!

The site is : http://www.sale-bikes.com/categories/MOUNTAIN/

For example, a Cube Hanzz SL 2011 - £1349
Trek Fuel EX 9.9 2011 - £792
Cannondale RZ One20 2 2011 - £611

These are just a few of the ones they have and ridiculously cheap prices! I know they will charge shipping (from Indonesia) but this is crazy and TOO good to be true, right??

Has ANYONE bought a bike from this site? Do you think its too good to be true?? Or are we talking dodgy indonesian scams?? Please tell me it cant be true!

In Nigeria, you need to provide your 4 digit pin and mothers maiden name as well as the above info...

Love it! I thought they were dodgy, just had to make sure!!

Canyon Nerve AM 6.0 ordered (from the real site)

delcol

dont trek not authorise their dealers to sell via mail order/internet,, ie you can only buy them from the shop or at least pick them up from the shop.....

handful

Everything on this site is so obviously fake....right down to the 'sexy girl in high heels' logo. Definitely a lady boy

pilch

No, its legit - I got a picture of the company director.... just to make sure he was a real person we asked him to pose with some simple everyday items just to prove he was genuine....
