The Official Chennai Offline Meet(G2G) Thread

@Rajesh - Do let me know at earliest when you want to make your payment, as for me, I NEED to get this done in an hour or so as they cannot wait; I can talk to them to get your stuff along with my shipment.

[Zaphod]

Wait Rajesh, I'm need of a saddle bag & might order it today or tomorrow depending on the reply from Cramster. Would you mind clubbing you order along with mine because the shipping cost is more for Saddlebag.

If anyone needs a saddle bag for the Cape Calimere trip, let me know. I shall bring it during the next G2G. I have a Cramster Colt.

Thanks Zaphod; but I'm ordering mine as I'm nearing Axis Bank's cut off time to remit the payment.

Mine is for long term requirement. But if you bring your colt in the next G2G, there's nothing like it & I'm sure someone will definitely need for sure & most importantly, I need to see what I missed in Stallion

@Ananth : I was following the riding gears thread sometime back and many were saying axxo is better than cramster / scoyco and somone posted that he got in thirumalai autos jc road for 800. So im not sure about it. So axxo is not bionics ?

Don't know about axxo, but I got a huge RTI for my Cramster guards. I crashed into the mountains during my trip last week. I was unscathed except for a little burn in my legs as it came in contact with the engine.

The knee guards took all the damage since my point of contact with the mountain side was my left leg's joints. As Ananth said you get what you pay for. If I had used a Axo cup on my knees, it would have slipped. I just feel 'cups' are for blunt falls and useless when you are scrapping on the roads.

Sadly, I had to test the usefulness of those guards by crashing . On a plus side, you have a first hand report from someone who got to make full use these guards although unintentionally . (If needed I can gladly bring over the guards for inspection)

Okay. So am settling on cramsters knee guard then.. Aargee can you bundle yours with mine? Or Rajesh will you be able to bundle it along with our order?

[aargee]

@Zaphod - You're right mate; I heard very positive replies for Cramster's knee guards from the riding gear thread.
@0260 - But have you made the payment & sent an email to Cramster? If you've made the payment let me know about it, I can speak with those guys to get it shipped along.

Hey,
Hope all of you are doing great.Coming to Chennai in Nov for about 2 weeks.Wanted to know if there is a way I can get a bike on rent.Any bike would do but I'd prefer a bigger bike.
Will hopefully catch up for a GTG too

[zerotosixty]

Aargee,

I just spoke to them.. It seems they wil charge no matter what. Even if its a single person ordering two/more things they will charge you for the number of products since its based on weight. So i think ill order them myself. Thanks for the help.

[rajesh1136]

i missed all the discussion. ok so we will order separately.

0260. atleast balaclava i will get it for you too. as for all the 3 or 4 only 50 is the shipping.

waiting for your reply to buy now.

[zerotosixty]

yeah mate.. Get one balaclava for me too!

[rajesh1136]

From my understanding, bionics are not available for this price

From the riding gears thread, Cramster knee guards are good; guess Zaphod's experience is suffice.

Hey Guys

I just saw knee gaurds n stuff near Adayar (Its Dollars & Pounds) not sure with the brand, they have quite a few stuff which would be great if you touch and feel the product which you are opting to buy.

I once heard they sell crappy & fake products; personally I don't have any experience buying from them.
