  1. For seatposts: https://www.canyon.com/en-za/gear/components/posts-and-clamps/ On the Canyon website, if you select "MENU" and the "GEAR" you will find a whole lot of options. Some Canyon specific small parts however is not listed on the website and you can mail southafrica@canyon.com to order these. If you are not sure about exactly what small part to order, you can find it on the exploded drawings: https://www.canyon.com/en-za/support-articles/exploded_drawings_overview.html We also carry the basic parts like hangers in SA at Techno Guide in Stellenbosch and Sprocket and Jack in Johannesburg.
  2. Clearing orders that are at customs and needing import code. First contact of customer service is with Canyon Service Center in Germany, then passed to Canyon SA when needed. Going to events to give potential customers the chance to touch and test the bikes. Technical Service when needed. Somebody to talk to. Canyon SA is only 1 person, at least someone that understands Afrikaans
  3. Dear All To clarify a few uncertainties on the above mentioned posts regarding CANYON imports: There is no VAT on shippingThe Import VAT however is a more difficult calculation as all imports into SA is worked out on ATV (Added Tax Value)For easy landed cost calculation in SA, we share this with customers: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1k66SorI-b_77oqS1FBkEQ3VLRRovHWy93NS_Zvmvrlc/edit?usp=sharingAn SA citizen can make 3 imports per year on your ID number. Whether it is from books to bikes. SARS will stop your 4th import when your ID number is all maxed out and request an import code from you.If the value of your import into SA is more than R50’000 you also need an Import Code.If you purchase a Canyon (all coming from Germany), you can gladly use your own Importers Code. If you do not have one, we can easily clear your purchase with our local Import Code. The courier (UPS) will inform us when it is requested from SARS and as soon as they do we always just create the document to clear it anyhow on your behalf, so no struggle for the customer.You will make two payments: One to Canyon for the bike, parts, frame, shipping and box. The other to UPS for the Duties and VAT once the bike arrives in SAThe fluctuating ZAR is a rather unique case for SA and something not normal for the Germans to experience, there is planning being done, although slightly difficult and slow, for a ZAR value on: www.canyon.com/en-za/All the bicycle brands importing complete bikes are also eligible to pay the 15% duties and ATV VAT.If you import frames and parts, to save that 15% duties, you have other additional costs like warehousing, employees, etc, but you create work in SA.If you buy the bike outside of SA, legally the purchase should be declared at the airport and you have to pay the Duties and VAT. If you sneak it past customs, please note, there is always a chance (and these days it happens more regularly) that the SARS officials will stop you and check your bike and request the needed paperwork. Canyon stands strong against this form of activities.Shipping, Duties, VAT… The direct to the consumer bikes from Canyon still comes at a great price point for amazing bikes!
