Non-Ebay Deals/Bargains

The Fibonacci stuff was when PX became in on the joke. I wish they would just go back to decent prices, good value items and fair postage that they had some years ago.

I emailed and asked them to confirm / clarify listing. So crap.

I know what it meant haha. Its just that obviously "clamp on type" is not the name for A-head or at least threadless.
Its a bike shop who doesn't know the names of bike parts?
Will they start writing "circular rolling type" in the options for wheels?

can't wait for my circular bouncy type wheels to arrive

I enjoyed this one

They must employ some idiots.

There's no need for that. Plus I can't imagine working there being very rewarding.

Sorry flower

The steel ones of those used to be loose ball. If that’s still the case, that’s pretty misleading.

Silver alu ones are cartridge, black steel ones ain't.

Are these the b906? Do they have any rise? I have no trust in planet x descriptions.

Oh yes they have. I was surprised but i'm still using them. They are like the old bullmoose, with angles and rise.

I just have this photo :

That's another 40 quid I'll never see again.

Money well spent 👌

A bit OT, but saw this locally today and seems an actual good deal:

https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/gb/groceries/true-smooth-battery-operated-lady-shaver-134028105-p

It’s pretty identical to mens shavers but half the cost. Worked fine on my face.

I dont think its for your face 😱

Better to test it on a safe area before a danger area........!

But actually, a foil shaver is a foil shaver. The tech is the same and the design is near-identical. At least if it’s for your curly-wurlies you know it’ll do fine on the beard ;)

Besides, maybe the racers want to do their legs?

I went to pick up the order this morning and it was mismatched single hubs. Individual front and rear front different generations with different branding.

Not pairs unfortunately so left them there and asked for a refund as they are not worth £19 each to me.

Nitto Bullmoose from planet x arrived today. They look like 10 degree rise. Now I only need a bike to put them on.

Now I only need a bike to put them on

Same. Maybe mine could go on that GT...

Anyone using them flipped so 10 deg down? Does it look shit? Anyone bought one and changed their mind? I'd rather not do a PX order

I'll put them on my salsa later on and post some pics. Defo not regretting getting them. They'll look ace on my hooger booger when it finally gets here.

Mega clunker! Do it!

Not bad, may even keep it that way when it's fully built.
Flipped bullmoose on the other hand looks like an abomination. I refuse to take pictures of that.

Can’t find a single picture of them flipped. Someone must have done it. Might look alright with a horizontal top tube.

Can’t tell if this is flipped or just 0 degree
