    Does anyone know any current wiggle discount codes please? I have a largeish order to place and none of the usual ones (EXTRA10, 10OFF etc) are working.

    With the tour about to start, may be worth hanging fire for a day or 2. Usually they do a 20% discount or similar.

    Hmm, having just ordered, just seen the option for ultegra brake calipers for £15 more. What do people reckon - worth it?

    Website says they have them in 52cm, 54cm and 56cm - if they do then they look a pretty good deal if you can handle the standard double chainset.....

    I have a 105 calliper on my commuter and it seems fine to me but fifteen quid can't hurt, they do look different on the reviews not just a sticky label

    If you can't, still want an Addict, are a 54 and want IMHO a better gruppo (altho a slightly heavier frame by about 100g), this is a steal. 56 and I'd have had (another) one :)

    Chainreaction have started their TdF offers, 20% of selected Castelli kit, 40% of a Shimano 6600 cassette etc. etc.

    I'm giving Flubit a go to see if they can beat those prices too

    +1, waiting for Merlin to do similar 'gear kit' shifters/derailleur offers on SRAM as they do on Shimano. If they did Rival for the £180 they do 105 both shifters + both mechs at I'd have bought already.

    CycleSurgery are doing any 3 Panaracer tubes for £10, or 1 for £7.99! Given that I'm short of 80mm valve lengths, that's a pretty good deal.

    Nice - will an 80mm valve be sufficiently long to push far enough through a 60mm rim.....?

    They've got other lengths as well, 38, 48, 60 as well as 80mm.

    I've got 50mm clinchers and the 60mm valve tubes I have are just long enough, so I would have thought that 80mm on 60's would be OK.

    I ain't seeing this on their website is it instore only or have I missed it?

    Never mind, just add three to the basket and it works.
    I used to just ride my bike to work but now I find myself going out looking for bigger and bigger hills.

    Does it include a free paintwork repair voucher from Chips-Away? Friend used one and, despite cleaning both surfaces and attaching properly, made a bit of a mess of the boot lid paintwork.
