    These are out of stock now. Can anybody advise on the suitability of the mini drive? I don't really want to shell out £60 on the superdrive but could do with something to replace my very basic commuting lights now that I'm satisfied that I'll be commuting regularly.

    Looks underpowered compared to the power drive. Depends if you are on unlit roads I suppose.

    Just got a refund from CS :( No Powerdrive XL then. Might email them asking why... Assume stock levels were too low though!

    No word yet on my Super Drive, my order history says 'exported' so not sure if this means dispatched?

    Knowing Geek speak, I would say it probably means exported from the eCommerce system to the warehousing system. Probably means someone will be looking for it soon
  • Just had the nice message "Thank you for ordering from CycleSurgery. However, I regret to inform you that the Lezyne Super Drive XL Front light is sold out.
    We have therefore cancelled this item from your order and you will not be charged for this item"

    Bum!

    Apparently 'exported' means that the expected delivery from their supplier is late (probably underestimated demand) and they expect to receive the lights in the next week or two.

    I have requested the special 'cochon volant' delivery option.

    Anyone had the e-mail from Flubit saying that from tomorrow they will only be accepting demands for items from Amazon.co.uk :?

    I've probably bought 15 odd items through Flubit, predmoninantly cycle ones, brake levers, handlebars, helmet yesterday, cable set, stems, steerer cutter, tyres etc etc, and none were from Amazon.

    The two biggest, or priciest items were the pair of RS30 wheels from Ribble, and the oak bikerack from Koo bikes.

    Corriebee I use a mini drive xl through the winter on my commute (London). Seems bright enough for town, not sure how effective it would be on dark roads though.

    Yup I just got it today... Crazzzzzy...

    I've had very good service spending £5-600 through them in the last couple of months... Guess it's going to be zero in the next couple

    I got that email today as well. Only bought a couple of things from them though and the first one took so long to come the saving wasn't really worth the wait so not all that fussed.

    I found Flubit a waste of time anyway. I wanted to buy some pedals which were on offer anyway, thought I would use Flubit to see if I could get any more money off. I registered etc and they said they would get back to me within 48 hours with some kind of offer - nothing ever came through and the pedals sold out... Waste of time. There's nothing on their website about being restricted to Amazon though...

    I've used flubit a number of times but I've had some issues with things being out of stock even though they've been marked as dispatched and some loooooong delivery times, I've also decided the meagre savings aren't really worth it

    I've never had any savings from them. They don't take into account things list Wiggle platinum discount or I get an email telling me they can't identify what I want from the options given: such as a 3T Funda Pro Fork with the 43mm rake option.

    It doesn't bother me that I missed out so much, these things happen, but it took them 1 week to get round to telling me :roll:

    Did either of you get a dispatched email? Received one today, not sure if that means they have dispatched the light or my refund :?
