Got an E Mountain from them for a very good price. The online order process is easy and simple. Great store for all your cycling needs, lost of stock to suit most budgets. They also have a service center for your bike. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Good variety, reasonably priced. Their sales are worth looking out for. Dont expect stellar sales service unless youre buying a bike. Part of Cycle Lab and have a good online presence. Offer Wesbank bicycle financing.

Not good service at all at CWC Tygervalley. Returned wrong item given to me yesterday, today. The lady that helped me had a attitude. Dont ask me unnecessary questions. Serve me in a nice manner with the right attitude. It wasnt my fault in the first place it was your guy giving me the wrong stock in the first place.

What pathetic service. I bought a front light from them and there were 10 people at hand to help part me from my money in about 2 minutes.Returning/exchanging a broken light however is a totally different experience. 3 Visits, 2 hours of time, 5 days of wait - thats what I had to deal with. As many people whom are ready to take your money, so few are there to give it back - well 1 specifically (and that is only if she happens to be at the store)(and yes she really is the only one as none of the other 15 people in the store can be trained or has the ability to do her level of skilled work).Also please be aware that they appear to be struggling financially as they apparently have zero cash available (even though the customer just before me paid in cash). They will gladly let you however take something else, or a perhaps gift card, so theres always that :(Rather support the smaller shops in the immediate area, its a far better value experience!

Wide range, good service. Prices can *sometimes* be a little higher than an independent shop but when they run special nobody beats them

One of my favourite walk in cycling shops. You can literally find anything there. The staff are always friendly and willing to help where they can.

Review №12

Was quiet so had good service BUT disappointed that what you see on their supposed website price wise is not applicable to their physical store. Apparently the online store is a separate entity?! I think that should be made VERY CLEAR AND UPFRONT on the website.

The integrated coffee shop is a great idea. Had good coffee while waiting for my bike to be prepped. Friendly staff. Nothing to complain about.

Review №14

I would advise to not give any contact information to these guys as unsubscribing from their mailing list is not as straight forward as just replying stop.The opt out message is vague and every changes with every single message.Ive seen OPTOUTNO, OptOUtNO and OptOutNO (Yes, those random uppercase spelling is correct)There is also no indication of SMS TO OPT OUT, just the above words at the end of the message.Even after replying to those messages with the text above I still get spammed afterwards.Ive contacted CWC (15:09 28/04/2021) and asked to have my details removed.Now we wait.

Waste of time delivering a Bicycle they made an offer on, drove all the way for nothing with no recompensation. Rather sell your Bicycle privately,less Hassle. Further more Andre the manager was ok,gave me a free empty Bicycle box

Review №28

The level of service is atrocious, takes ages to get someone te help in a store that is clearly not too busy, and the manager seems too preoccupied to deal with complaints. It’s such a pity that this is the only large bike shop in the Tygervalley area. On two occasions the salesmen I dealt with kept pushing bicycles well out of the price range I was looking for and didn’t want to allow a test rides? I’m sure this does not apply to all the employees, but after the last two visits I will be staying far away

Review №29

Underwhelming store if youre used to CycleLab service level and stock availability. Spent 5 minutes talking to someone who thought I wanted to buy arm warmers in the middle of summer, instead of arm protectors, only to find out they dont have any stock of these to begin with

Review №31

Thanks for the fantastic service. I financed a bike through them and it was the easiest process as well as efficient. Adrian has a world of knowledge and is keen on sharing it with you.Our setup was done and he had so much patience with us ensuring it is correct and any additional items required as the best value for money.I would highly recommend Chris Willemse Cycles to anyone and it is the best service I received compared to two other bike shops I have been supporting in the past.

Sometimes you just find great customer service and excellent help in a shop and then it is important to note it. I was visiting this shop on 29 December 2019 and my son was with me. We got excellent support from sales consultant Adrian De Bruyns and spent more than an hour with him in which he took us through every little detail regarding our purchase. I was very impressed with the variety available in the shop as well as the spectrum of bicycles in a lower price range. I also felt that he really went out of his way to accommodate my preferences, not trying to talk me into spending more money, but rather looking at cost effective good quality recommendations. A great experience!

Review №55

This WAS one of the best cycling stores in town ,Id highly recommend using a smaller store that meets and sometimes beats their pricing .(CUSTOMER SERVICE ISSUES) rather use the online store if you must.Reason for my poor review is that after purchasing with them they very quickly thanked me via SMS and asked about my shopping experience so as a fan i obliged by following the link provided and expressed my concerns based on my experience and till today, no feedback nothing....FACT not everyone walking into your store knows all the technical terms for your products so leave us with an experience that will want local cyclist /newbies wanting to come back and not feel stupid for even asking

Review №75

A big thumbs up to the branch manager Jaco (I think is his name).I took 2 bikes in for a service and requested the tires replaced on one of the bikes. Unfortunately when I went to pick up the bikes I discovered the wrong bike had the tires replaced.I was annoyed while waiting for the tires on the other bike to be replaced too, contemplating the additional cost, when Jaco came around and asked me if everything was ok. I explained the situation, he immediately sorted it out and I didn’t have to pay for the additional tires. Now I feel like I gained a new set of tires (on the wrong bike).It isn’t a lot of money (less than R300), but I am really impressed at the customer centricity. I bought a new bike for my son for R8000 and this is now the only place I will go to in future.

I have bought a Marvel triload bike rack from CWC. I used it when we went on Holiday in December, Unfortunately I lost all my keys for the bike rack and basically I was stuck and the rack was useless. When back from holiday without my bike rack, I phone CWC and explain my situation and send Jaco one of the managers photos of the locks.. Jaco ensure me that he will make a plan. Jaco find replacement keys for me and within a day he courier the keys to my home address all for free without any charges. Service and commitment like this is hard to find. Thank you Jaco and CWC for the excellent service. Rgds Herman

Shopped there previously and had a wonderful experience. Not living in cape town, was really looking forward to it again . However, security would not allow entry as he said they open at 9 where as the door and the website suggest 8am. If the shop only opens at 8 for drop off for service, please state that or change the opening hours.Disappointed as I had a long list of purchases to make and passed over other bike shops. Returned home to our town empty handed.

Review №87

I have used CW Cycles on a handful of occasions - both the online store and the physical walk-in store as well and although the deals they offer are unmatched in SA, I do believe they struggle to deal with the quantities of orders placed. Having ordered a set of pedals online I was frustrated upon opening the parcel to witness that half the parts were missing. After inspecting the contents I found that the Quality Control signoff sheet was signed off not only once but twice. This indicates a clear flaw in their goods handling service and a degree of carelessness. It appears that they move stock around from various warehouses before shipping - stressing the importance of QC.I called them to inquire about this error and it was rectified the next day happily by CW Cycles staff.

Nice looking shop but the attitude from the staff was not good. I asked to look at a bike for R5000 and the look I got was like (what the F are you doing in this store) so I bought my new Titan bike from another store that actually has customer service. Very disappointing experience to what I was expecting from what I have heard on the radio. The website was also out of date.

Walked into this store a few minutes ago with my husband who was looking to have my bicycle serviced and needed a few things, the sales assistant or floor assistant whoever it was was so rude and so impolite it was as if he did not want to serve my husband my husband asked him 1 question and before my husband could finish he just said very abruptly and rudely no we dont have that. I came all the way out of bobteheuwel here cause of the great reviews about the place however will never go back.
