So - does anyone know any decent online shops in the US or europe that may have my much soughtafter FSA BB30 chainset?

I guess i am after their eqivalents of Wiggle and Chain Reaction.

Thanks

    Amazingly enough in the US we don't have any online shops that will have as large a selection and consistently low prices as Chain Reaction. There are a number of good places that have a bit of a discount, Colorado Cyclist, Exel Sports, Cambria Bike, Tree Fort Bikes, Bike Nashbar, Ebikestop, Jenson USA, and others of which I can't remember, sorry. I usually end up googling the part I need (FSA BB30 Crankset USA, Germany, etc) and check out whatever shops pop up since somebody is likely to have it on sale or "special offer" or try http://qbike.com/cgi-bin/find.cgi?ord=p ... on&lp=&hp= which has a list of a few different US online shops that carry the BB30. All of the shops mentioned above are places that I have purchased from in the past and had good service. Oh and use the term "crankset" for any US searches.

    Have you tried www.bike24.com ?

    Based in Europe (Germany I think) with a Website in multiple languages.
    Prices are often better than Chain Reaction. Extensive choice and I have personally had rapid and reliable service.

    Other German sites that the European forums often mention as exceptional value are Kompressor-bike.com and Bobshop.de ; But I have not personally used either of these.
