    Hey all im looking to see if anyone here knows any shops where ill get the best price/deal on a cube or giant mtb.
    I have found buildabike and they seem ok but hoping that someone here knows some other shop looking to make a sale as im looking to get good bit of extras as well!

    I would imagine most stores stock Giant. Cycle Superstore in Tallaght stock Cube as well as Giant.

    Ya i was in there but out of anywhere i have gone i have to say the staff in there are the worst when it comes to a sale that i have seen, there was no interest shown so i just left, want to get the bike from a place that i can return to and they will remember me!
    Have to say i was shocked on how bad that store staff were.... :(

    lol, I was there the other day but left after a while because there were no staff about! It was a busy Sunday afternoon though, not that that's an excuse.

    They are they only one's who stock both Cube and Giant though... But there are plenty of GIANT dealers around Dublin... Cube dont have a big dealer network here..

    Ya the shop does not have to stock both as i dont mind jumping around shops etc but just was hoping i could get a few names here of places that actually are looking for a sale :P

    Here's a list of bike shops and what they generally stock: Click

    Have a look at Eurocycles on the long mile road, they stock FELT, FOCUS, Corratec and have some good deals as well as top MTB'ers working there...

    Stagg Cycles Lucan - our club sponsor, stock Giant & can probably order in Cube bikes. Best to call during the week when it's quiet and the lads will look after you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 290 ✭✭davey101


    Cycle Inn Tallaght/Long mile, stock Giant.

    i bought a giant (xtra small, ironically) from buildabike and was very happy with the service. So much so, that I bought other bits n pieces there. I would recomend them.

    no affilliation etc. Just a happy customer.

    I'm pretty sure that the CSS are the Irish importers for Cube? So whether you like them or not they're going to get a cut wherever you buy one! Having said that Cubes will usually have a higher spec level than Giants at the same price! Focus are a similar brand to Cube and are also worth considering.

    Cyclesuper store are not a Cube importer , they are just a retailer like any other Cube dealer . Richies bike shop in Swords are also starting deal in Cubes . What model of mtb where you thinking of buying? Stock might not be good on various models.

    Richie doesnt do Cube, he'd like to though as far as I know. CSS are the Lapierre importers (hence pushing them so hard when you go in!). Dont think the Cube importers sell direct in Ireland, met the rep in a shop the other day nice guy.

    I recently made the decision to get back in to mountain biking and bought a Cube Hardtail from the lads in Buildabike. I have to say that I found their service excellent & if you call in you could grab business cards for either Darren or Terry which would include their mobile numbers. I emailed Terry a couple of times and always got a response within a working day.

    I had looked at many stores that stock the likes of Cube, Felt & Stevens but apart from the liking the bike I bought I was really impressed with their service. I would recommend them to anyone.

    A thumbs up from me for Terry as well. I bought a Cube Acid from them and found he was great- very friendly and knowledgeable. I hope to buy another Cube later this year and they'll be my first port of call.

    What model? The Pro is still available in all sizes , the Race is only available in a 16" and the SL is only available in 18" and 22" . They are selling out super fast . Be quick!
