0754 543 225I met this online posts on tik tok about second hand as well as new bikes sold on sold and cash as well. I called the number there and the answerer gave me the following sale prices (it's still in their page till now) :- brand new bikes (irregardless of the type) you deposit 15000 (for loan options) and pay 300per day for a certain amount of time that varies with the bike , for the cash it depends on the bike specs also. For second hand bikes, only a deposit of 6500 is needed and a guaranter (2), original ID card and KRA pin. The amount is calculated according to the bike condition, both for loan and cash (instant or upfront payments). Loan for second hand bikes you pay 200 per day. Now they said that they are located at Nakuru town - biashara house ( I travelled there it is a building with safaricom kinda markings and phones are sold on the ground floor as well as other businesses. On reaching the destination (Nakuru town) they said that one needs to book for an appointment since the space in the company is limited to 40 clients. I told him ( it was a man always on the phone) that I have no problem with the payments, but to see what I'm paying for, and for the appointment/space booking fee/ticket (as he put it) I'll pay at the gate (of the presumed company). After a few unanswered calls, he called on another line and sounded like a different person this time. And told me that I have to pay first for hime to come get me with now the receipt at hand. I sensed this a bit fishy (having wasted time and bus fare to Nakuru, at least I made it to a county I have never been) I didn't pay but travelled back. I wanted to take or rather purchase (of course on loan) a new bike or second hande that was in good road condition. I woulda lost 15000 or 6500 or the 1250 for (imaginary) booking fee. NB: I didn't loose money to them, but their tack ticks are soo tempting and might hook up someone who is not on the lookout.
