So you might want to stock up on other little luxuries like soap, tomato sauce, and tea. Bring lots of batteries for your radio so you can continue to get BBC's World Service.

We got plenty of beer though.

Oh, you'd better stock up on Drop Bear Repellant. They're rampant in WA and like to feast on pale English skin. Eye-wink

Fox shock seal kits, yes. Bought two from City Bike Depot here in Sydney a couple of weeks ago. It does depend on the shop. Be prepared for "sticker shock" - the wholesale distributors here like their fat margins.

DT Swiss forks aren't so well-regarded here as in Europe. Fox and Rockshox are dominant. So that might be a challenge.

welcome mate,dont worry about the other blokes, there just having a shit stir, yes you will be able to get them in Perth, but be aware our prices are more expensive compared to euro, they are imported by http://www.bikesportz.com.au/, oh and dont worry about the drop bears over there, i think the locals ate most of them by now, its the Kangawallafox, and the kikatinalong clan that will do you more damage over in those parts of Oz
