    While I was visiting South Africa in July a South African bike dealership very kindly lent me Quad to test ride. I've got pics of the bike and some scenery on another thread but I wanted to put in pictures of some of the bikes and the shop front here. Although you will see some familiar names like Jonway or Shineray on the shop floor, there are other unfamiliar names like SAM and Gomoto which I believe are rebadged machines.

    The quad he loaned me was badged as a SAM but I think it was originally a Shineray or a Jonway.

    The guy who runs the dealership, Greg Nanni, is really helpful. Thanks for all your help Greg!

    This shop seems on the up and up! They seem friendly enough, too, but looks can be deceiving! Do they rent bikes, too? The Puzey is made by Galaxy Moto, and is sold in the US as a Pitster Pro.

    They were very friendly and helpful, to the point of taking a quad out to a farm for me to test ride. I'd have no hesitation to buy from them. However I understand that the main problem with Chinese made bikes is getting the spares from the manufacturers so if the dealership can't get spares there ain't much they can do.
