Mod Note: Price Error has been confirmed by Wiggle via email

Perfect for convertible drivers or riders with smaller sports cars, this excellent Seasucker holder comes with everything you need to safely mount your 9mm QR hub and 12mm thru-axle hub road bike to your vehicle. Made from a solid, machined aluminium, it provides a strong base to confidently set your frame on, with the four vacuum cup suckers providing a damage-free hold to your car's rear end.

Easy to install and remove, the Komodo is an excellent carrier for the regular racer or adventurous enthusiast.

Probably an error, but anyway…

    Obviously a pricing error. No need to waste the staff's time, issuing out refunds.

      in this case stuff them….wiggle/crc have destroyed the online bike market and have jacked shipping up to insane levels.

        Then just buy elsewhere and ignore them. No need to get salty about it, were all adults here.

    Hoping that this is genuine; if not, does anyone have any suggestions of a similarly priced bike rack that'll work with a small car like a Fiesta?

        I can see this becoming expensive. I don't even like riding bikes. But I saved 99%!

  • jayboi on 15/10/2020 - 16:30

    Probably meant to be listed at $2,399

  • cchhiillyy on 15/10/2020 - 16:31

      yeah because that's the type of buyer who would spend $2,791.99 on this

      • Omk4r123 on 15/10/2020 - 16:38

        Is it made out of carbon fibre though?

        • jayboi on 15/10/2020 - 16:39

          Probably not

        • Telios on 16/10/2020 - 03:00

          It's aluminium

  • vash5 on 15/10/2020 - 16:31

    Thanks OP.. will see how this pans out.

    • Logical on 15/10/2020 - 22:17

      Empty… No gold in that pan!

  • Buy2Much on 15/10/2020 - 16:32

    Likely $2399. Doubt they will cope this much loss.

    • nezumi on 15/10/2020 - 16:33

      On the other hand, it's a massive company and a small stock item, so maybe?

      • jayboi on 15/10/2020 - 16:38

        • franco cozzo on 15/10/2020 - 16:39

    Error?

    If you'd asked me whether $23.99 or $2,791.99 was the price error for a bike rack, I'd have chosen the latter.

    • franco cozzo on 15/10/2020 - 16:45

      screw crc/wiggle …..they screwed cyclists the world over and really stuffed us over during covid by upping the shipping to crazy dollars.
      not to mention decimating the online / b&m bike shops

      • bongom on 15/10/2020 - 17:11
        +1

        The shipping increased because pre-covid your parcels were on an plane full of passengers who were subsidising the shipping cost.

        • franco cozzo on 15/10/2020 - 17:13
          +1

          they had already increased pricing prior to this and then upped the ante even more back in the 2nd quarter this year
          it now costs nearly $30 shipping for one small item and the threshold for free is $200
          they also have warehouses in AU so they have no excuse

          • sheikyerbouti on 15/10/2020 - 17:38

            @franco cozzo: To be fair the shipping costs more but I got my last order in 5 days from ordering, from UK. That's faster than from Melbourne.

        Not wrong, I don't bother with them anymore, bikebug is a pretty good setup and a lot of the prices are the same anyway. Better yet can pop into the store in Woolloongabba BNE

      This is the real steal, tempted but haven't hit the trails enough yet as only bought mtb a few weeks back (though even for a play and then sell on you would make a few $ from it)

        youve got to know what youre buying when it comes to a fork…you dont just buy one and hope it suits

        • vash5 on 15/10/2020 - 17:18

          True, but at that price you could easily re-sell for 1K

        • inamberclad on 15/10/2020 - 17:22

          mate shut your mouth.. this is ozb.. let the discount speak!

          fast forward 1 week upon delivery damn why doesn't this fit? why did i buy forks? i don't even have a bike!

        • Preferred Username on 15/10/2020 - 17:24

          100% agree if I was in the market for one, though seems like a good business decision just to make money on a resell lol. Not going to purchase, only one left so others have the same idea I think

          Edit: all gone now
