I've had a passion for bikes for a few years now and have always been good at finding good quality bike bits for myself at good prices, as well as being good with webdesign, so I've decided to put my skills to good use and start up a new sort of online bike accessory shop this summer. Now what prompted this was discussions I had with a few suppliers I recently met. I've subsequently negotiated a few deals where I can both pass the savings on and offer a safe and quick payment and delivery system.
I will initially sell small items at lower prices than a lot of the kit thats available to buy at the moment. Things like these (these are "safe" prices but they will definitely go down when I see evidence of demand!):
I also want to sell a range of cheap tools, which don't patronise, so the chain tools, crank pullers, all the sizes and fittings and bits to pull apart and put together bikes new and old alike.
What I want from you people, is to tell me what else you'd like to be able to buy without spending too much, so come summertime I can start negotiating wholesale deals and kick off the shop... All ideas are welcome!
Cheers
