    Goods always arrive quickly and well packaged. Somtimes you even get free Wiggle sweets in the box. (Wiggle sweets are like jelly teddies but are in the shape of the Wiggle name).

    Just ordered from Wiggle and paid the extra £3.99 for priority despatch, order arrived via City Link at 2.00pm following day and I live miles out in the countryside. I would recommend them.

    Wiggle are great. However, I personally would get hand built wheels from Merlin.

    I've never had a problem with wiggle & even with the standard (free) postage option the deliveries usually quick.

    Will be going to Merlin for wheelsmyself though. From what I've heard, their build quality is some of the best available.

    If you've never used wiggle before, I'll happilly refer you. Just pm me your email addy, follow the link in the mail they send you & if you spend more than £50.00 within 6 weeks, they'll throw in a free pair of dhb triple lens glasses.

    average bits n bobs from Chain reaction or Wiggle especially if they've got a deal on, wheels from merlin (i would if i had to, not needed to yet though) and everything else from LBS ie i bought a tyre for my dad from there last week and now he needs new grips.

    I just bought a few things from Wiggle, and I've been very happy with it. Good delivery speed, and decent prices. I'm waiting on some gloves at the moment which have been on back order for nearly a week though (the rest of the order was despatched straight away)

    Wiggle along with Chain Reaction Cycles are the "cream" of online retailers - on the rare occasions there is a problem they sort it out brilliantly, though problems are rare. The free delivery option invariably means next day. Shame Luker has already offered to refer you - I would have been pleased to do so myself :(

    Yes agree with the majority...

    I have used wiggle on numerous occasions and apart from the feckin huuuge boxes they package everything in they can't be faulted!

    The same goes for CRC - have used these massively also...

    BUT...

    Go to Merlin, wheel pro or somewhere that 'specializes' in wheel building. I have had two pairs of hand built wheels from Merlin and they are truly handcrafted - truly great!
