    Looks good, but the closest shop with availability is Twickenham!
    Not a bad thing, as I don't really need it.
    Good spot, though... :wink:

    I've no experience of Revolution bikes, but I did notice that the more expensive Revolution road bikes that were originally in the sale seemed to be very well specced for sub £800. In particular, the Fulcrum Racing 5 wheels were a better grade than the wheels you normally find on bikes at this price point.

    For anyone looking for a bit of deal on lube, I thought I did okay in Halfords today. They have an in store offer of a 400ml can of GT-85 for £1.99 when you buy any Bikehut product. Since I went in to buy a 125ml bottle of Bikehut Dry Lube that is reduced to £4.99, I thought £6.98 for both this and the GT-85 was pretty good.

    Pedals arrived from Merlin, look great, I have already got a set of Crank Bros SL's on another bike and love them. Wiggle don't appear to have as many deals now as they used to, used to always buy from Wiggle as they always had great sales and quick postage, Shops like CRC JE James and Merlin appear to have much better bargins these days plus wiggle don't seam to stock as much kit now.

    Raleigh and BSA single speed
