The only place in the area is Alf who is very close to Cape Gate.  He is very good and he tries his best to keep the costs down.  0835408715

If you can dream it you can do it!

Thanks Peter

You are the second guy to refer me to Alf, I heard that he is good.

Much appreciated.

Jacques,

Alf is an ex BMW mechanic, serviced our 650's (Mine, my father's and my mothers)before we upgraded. A nice guy and knows his stuff.

As Pete said. pricing is very competetive.

Jip. He services both my bikes. Works from his house in Turner Street, Kraaifontein. He used to work for Donford Stellenbosch.

Alfie has been doing work on my, and my son's bikes for years, known him since Trefco. In fact I just tried calling him to make a booking. He is sometimes difficult to contact via phone, he works alone so he may have his hands in a engine, be patient and try again. I think he needs a PA :-)

I wanted Alfie to replace the steering head bearings on my son's XCountry but unfortunately he cannot do it, I guess he is too busy. Mike is also unfortunately also too busy. Anyone know if Shane is is working for himself or has he started with Donford CT yet? I have asked Donford Stellenbosch for a quote so I'll prepare myself for the shock.

I was introduced to him when I took Mwendo in for a service at the beginning of June.
