L-Plate Rider
Hi All
I'm from Europe and moving now to New Zealand. I would like to know what the "price pain barrier " for high quality and safety motorcycle clothes (Like Kevlarjeans ) in New Zealand is. This because I work in this industry and I like to now if I should up something like that in New Zealand too.
Thanks and safe ride

The kiwi version of eBay is trademe.co.nz have a look around on there. Also look on fastbikegear.co.nz at their pricing.
I can't really answer your question as everybody has a different price pain point.
Bear in mind that N.Z. is a small market, so prices are generally higher than Europe or the U.S.

New Zealand is so small and our economy so weak that even if there was such a thing as bike gear here, we wouldn't be able to afford it.

"High quality and safety" in the same sentence as "Kevlar Jeans" ... that's original ...
What good is riding safe if you're trying to sell us "High quality and safety motorcycle clothes " .. (Like Kevlar Jeans .. ???)
Did you recall I mentioned ... free is good ... ??

Send your own gear over when you leave if you've already got it.

If you ride a Harley and a Beemer you shouldn't need to indulge with riding apparel that doesn't have that brands logo already on it. And just as an aside, Kevlar jeans and safe riding apparel do not belong in the same sentence, at least not in my book.

I think the op is wondering about setting up shop in nz to sell bike gear

A range of safety gear prices you would expect to pay in Nz.
Jandals $5.00 ( Warehouse )
Singlet $9.95 "
Shorts $14.99 "
Sunnies $15.00 "
Helmet $50.00 ex trade me.
Not a lot of change from 100 bucks.

Better still, he's looking to supply one of us with his "quality" safety gear so we can sell it for him...

Yeah I'm just making sure everyone knows how retarded I am in case they've forgotten.
Read it as he is moving to NZ and should he bring his gear first or buy here first time around.
Unless you're willing to put your money where your mouth is (as in really commit), bulk ship and be very competitive on price and not expect to make money back on your investment very quickly, NZ ain't the market for you haha We're just too small.

Gee the guy asks a simple question and gets shit about it, give him a break. As the first reply said, look on trademe.co.nz for comparisons
