    It seems like the codes stopped working, was about to order a load of things at work, thought better of it and go for a ride and order when I got home. Not working now?

    Think it's a decent deal:

    Circa £151 after £5 newletter subscription and 3% Quidco cashback, for Fulcrum 5's from Wiggle.

    Even cheaper if you use 12-EXTRA to get 12% off.

    Bugger!
    Usually pretty good at finding these codes, can I ask how or where you came about it?

    I only ordered them this morning, but they were despatched within a few hours - I have messaged them to see if they would refund the difference as a goodwill gesture......

    Isn't it just. You can't have too many cassettes.

  • Ar5e, got up to only two orders until they pulled the plug. Well done Mroll for spotting the code.

    Wiggle pretty much always have a deal for 12% off if you spent £150, 10% for £100... They rotate the codes so you just need to try all the different variations... 12-extra, 12extra, extra12, 12off, 12-off etc. sometimes they do 15% so worth trying those variations too.

    How annoying are Evans with these codes? They offer discounts and want people to use them. People use them and they panic and withdraw them early. Great way to build goodwill.

    I think they cocked up .. nearly 40% off their prices (rather than 40% off RRP)is a pretty big discount.

    The code was never going to last once people started making multiple £50.01 orders.

    But they did exactly the same thing in January. They must realise these are popular offers and not honouring them just winds up the people who miss out.

    Same here. Tried on a new lid on the way home and was going to place the order for the discounted one on line to get double discount. Rats!

    I presume it was a mistake, but they'll still process the orders made.
    They won't lose much. I'll no doubt buy some other 'bits' when I pickup my order.

    Horrible tyres, IMO - I was able to wheelspin on the flat with these.

    I agree. Horrible tyres to ride on and no grip in the wet.
    Worst tyres I have ever had.
    Mine are coming off tonight after a measly 2 week use.
    Conti 4 seasons are infinitely better and well worth the extra cash.
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    .

    Yes - I wonder how many pairs of these tyres are kicking around with only 2-4 weeks of use. I know I have a pair and so does a colleague. He, like me, measured a drop in average speed as a result of using these tyres.

    Instore yes. With pricematch, no. Not in the store near me anyway.

    I did use it twice though, so got Hope Pro2 Evo hub for £36 and then Mavic Open Pro CD rim for £32
