Rumbux is closing for their annual holiday between Dec 13th and Jan 8th. I am trying to get an order together for before they close. This means I can only order what they have in stock, and I'm trying to clarify what that is. If you have any immediate interest in Rumbux products, please let me know ASAP and we may be able to get it shipped out of South Africa by Dec 12th. This is an air cargo order, so it will be in the US only a few days to a week later, depending on flight schedules, and get shipped to you via UPS ground after I re-package it. Might not be in time for Christmas, due to the Christmas UPS rush, but potentially it could be, or soon after.

Thanks and Happy Holidays to everyone!!
Merry Christmas Eric. Thanks for handling Rumbux products and your great customer service. Love the full system on my Super Tenere.

My email is in the sig line of every post. Hit me with an email and we can move on from there. I am out of stock on the Full Spec kits, but placed a new order today. Typically orders take 4-6 weeks, but I won't know what to expect until Rumbux gets back to me with the pro forma invoice. Most of the order is usually sold before it arrives. I accept all major credit cards and PayPal, so let me know what you prefer.

The highway pegs are Kuryakyn Longhorn offset pegs with 1" clamps. You can sometimes find the pegs and extensions in black, but the clamps usually only in chrome.

I just sold the last un-sold set of Super Ten bars in the order in progress. Rumbux re-opens after their holiday break on Jan 8th. I'll be placing a new order with them at that time. Delivery would likely be 4-6 weeks after that, (to me). Then a few days for me to pack them for individual shipping. My email is in the sig line here or my profile. Ping me with an email and I can get you started.

My review of Rumbux crash bars, Skid plate. A couple of months ago I bought a set of crash bars/ skid plate from a fellow inmate who had a wreck. I'm fully convinced these Rumbux crash bars/skid plate either saved his life or at least prevented worse bodily damage. These Rumbux crash bars are stout! More than likely the toughest of all the crash bars. They were a lot of work for someone like myself who has limited experience working with metal and a perfectionist. I'm a tinkerer and working with metal is a weak point in my experience. I went through a long series of heating the bars with Oxy/acetylene torch, bending...letting them cool.... mocking up to bike, then repeat. At one point I was heating while my best friend was bending and I lost attention for a second and torched a hole in them! Tried to repair by brazing with a brazing rod, but had the torch too hot and made the hole larger and just about torched one part of them off! I was giving up which I don't do easy. I took them to a professional welder and he charged me $20.00USD to repair them and make them as strong or stronger and I did the grinding. The welder was impressed with the welds that Rumbux did from the factory and on the Rumbux website these bars are listed as 1010 mild steel, but he thought they were made of something stronger? Some emails back and forth with Eric V on advice...He was EXTREMELY helpful just as everyone who has bought from him has posted. This whole process was great experience for me and I've learned more about metal work.
So a good chance in the near future I could be buying some brand new ones from him I have confidence in him. Rumbux is lucky to have someone like Eric as a North American distributor and I hope he is being compensated well for his time and attention!
Previously I had Altrider crash bars. They were fine and survived me dropping my bike a couple of times on my driveway and once in a parking lot after riding "The Dragon" (Embarrassing but I rode The Dragon well!) But just eyeballing the Rumbux and factoring that Rumbux doesn't mount to the engine stays as most of the others do....Rumbux are more stout for sure. Also, like how Rumbux goes under the headlight. I wanted to mount auxillary lights on a crash bar as opposed to the plastic mounts as others have broken or cracked that mount in some way. My auxillary light is a tad heavier than some. Another factor in my decision on these bars were ease of taking off bottom pan for oil and oil filter change and of course taking off right side lower cowling. Just removing/reinstalling altogether is simple. I don't like putting off farkling or maintenance because I have to factor time to remove something else. I used a wire brush attached to an angle grinder to remove the powder coating to bare metal. I next spray canned them with Rustoleum primer, then paint, then a clear coat. Pictures are in the "what you did to your Tenere today" thread. But...if your doing pros and cons on the Rumbux crash bars and skid plate....They don't mount to parts to where they might do further damage if you wreck, hit a log, rock or boulder. Easy for bike maintenance farkling. Very sturdy and good workmanship. Dealing with Eric V is less to worry. If you sell your bike or the crash bars, resale will be higher. You and your baby (your bike) will be better protected. Good mounting points for lights under headlight. Honestly I like the way they look. ONLY con is they weigh 5lbs. more than my altrider crash bars / skid plate setup. But that speaks to the extra strength. And I did actually weigh them on a scale myself for comparison out of curiosity.
Thank You Eric for your help!

Thanks for posting your feedback and experience Xclimation. You took on quite a project. Good think no one is paying you by the hour for that work!

You're not kidding! As I told you...would've been cheaper for me to work extra hours if factoring time I spent!

Those are the ones. I cut the price in half from what it had been. I will need to add some shipping costs for just the light brackets, but it should be reasonable. Worst case, flat rate small box from USPS. I may be able to do it 1st class package for less.

PM or email with your shipping address and I'll send you a PP invoice. At this time I am only taking PayPal. Email is in my profile and the sig line of every post I make here.

Just received this from Deon Lak at Rumbux:

Hi all Resellers,

Due to low sales volumes the past 2 years, it became increasingly difficult to keep Rumbux profitable lately.

We have changed our business model, in order to accommodate only research and development work. This means that we won't be manufacturing or selling any products in future. We are negotiating with interested parties, regarding the brand, IP & possible manufacturing.

We are in the process of finishing all paid-up orders in the system. My sincere apologies for any inconveniences this may cause. We will keep you up to date with the latest news.

Thank you for all the loyal support over the years.

Regards,

Deon Lak
