Scrapper: Are you in Greenford? Do you have a shopfront?

yes in greenford, but no shopfront strictly mailorder only at the moment unfortunately.

Doh! I'm just down the road. Any plans for a pick-up service? :)

Thats one of the many changes I'm trying to make.

I'm dissappointed that none of those BB comments were from me. I feel I'm letting down my Essex heritage.

bikepimp.co.uk is good for getting the cheapest prices on the www.

Where in Essex exactly? Just wondering as I also spent my yoot being harrassed at bus stops by groups of Sharons and Traceys in white stilettoes (possibly an earlier era to yourself).

lucky you, I spent my yoot being harassed by the police

Give me the police any day. I've spent the night in the company of both, and got more battered by the girls.

Beware Bonthrone. For me they are by far the worst I've used (and I've used most, it seems). No indication of stock; silly postage charges; take your money straight away but can take weeks to send anything; don't answer the phone; don't reply to emails; order tracking meaningless, etc, etc. Bonthrone have gone into and out of liquidation a few times and commanded an encouraging 1.2 out of 10 on one of the review sites.

CRC, Wiggle and Hargroves have all been faultless for me.

+1 on Bonthrone avoidance.
I used to do work for them (product catalogues etc) and they were a frickin' nightmare.
Certainly would put me off getting anything through them.

Love Hubjub,

Answers questions and is totally helpful.
Otherwise, wiggle, chainreaction and parker are good.

yeah, hubjub is great.

shall we do a ride to essex then gents?

Hmmm...

I'm a big fan of Cyclebasket. I've used them loads for tektro brake parts, but they also have some good prices on rims, hubs, and VERY cheap SSDB spokes. Delivery is £6 a time though. Rubbish website too :/

Otherwise, I use wiggle and CRC and occasionally Ribble (only fair seeing as I ride one :D)

What sort of Ribble?

Hubjub is great.

Where there's a Will...

What sort of Ribble?

Alu audax with mirage groupset and some carbony bits
