What size? It's cheaper from Giant if you're after a small.

I am actually but thought I'd managed to bag the 2018 version at a good price.
Would like to see it in the flesh but its not a bad price.
Although I saw a TCR Advanced Pro 2 at the wkend for 1480 which given the carbon clinchers looks a better deal ?

Anyone know how the Pactimo site works? Managed to pick up a couple of jerseys this morning (on recommendations from here) but most of the day later it says “order unfulfilled” is this a wiggle stock issue or are they just working on US time perhaps?

They have a UK arm that handles distribution and returns for here.

I've ordered 4 items from them in the last month or so.

Longest ago was a custom jersey, which happens to have been despatched yesterday, so now says fulfilled, and I also ordered two LS jerseys on Friday, think they were despatched either at the end of the day, or over the weekend, and they both turned up this AM.

I think in the scheme of things they are pretty small, so hopefully they are just a bit behind with the volume of Black F sales.

One item I ordered 4 weeks ago, immediately went out of stock, which I feared meant they did not have it, but it must have been that I had ordered the last one - so from that I would hopefully conclude that their stock system is pretty on the ball - not to say the figures might not be incorrect at some point though.

Do post up what you make of the jerseys - I find them some of the very best out there, nearly as good (In fit for me and material quality) as my favourite, which is Ale at present.
Sadly their bibs do not fit me though :?

Looks like I was being impatient-just got a dispatch notice so all good, well maybe until I realise I am not the racing snake I think I am when it comes to sizing. Will see how I get on when they turn up...

Not sure if this is already out there but if you spend over £60 on new season DHB kit - quoting DHBLOOKBOOK gets you £10 off.

Nice, but not £300 nice for moi :shock:

Plus, I am weird dimensions, so tend to need a narrowish set of bars with a slightly shorter than expected stem.
I'll stick with my £110 Ergonovas which are *Luvverly

*All be it have no fluro on them.

As an aside, if anyone stumbles on one of these Ale jerseys (Green and yellow) in a size small - could they please PM me?


I have the green and black one, but would love the above, but the smallest size I can find is medium :-(

Back on topic - some very decent Ale jersey deals at PBK, especially some LS examples:

I just know I'm going to regret not asking this before putting an order through Wiggle using the DHBLOOKBOOK and claiming Topcashback a moment ago...

Could I have combined that DHB code with British Cycling discount code and Topcashback, if I spent more than £99?

I have only ever been able to use the BC code at CRC, can you now use it at Wiggle then.........?
I'd be keen to know if that was the case - and it should be really.

I have only once or twice had more than one code combine on CRC, and that was pure happen-chance that I had one code cached under my login in a basket I had not completed on.

Sorry, I meant buying the DHB stuff at ChainReaction, spending more than £99.

As it was, I spent ~£75 at Wiggle, including £4 for guaranteed delivery tomorrow for placing order just before 2200. Doesn't look like an option yet at CRC.

I would imagine the warehouse is in Northern Ireland and so an overnight delivery which started pick and pack at 10 would not be possible.
Part of the reason for Wiggle moving to Bilston would,IMO, have been it’s central location and it’s abolitly to meet these ridiculously short delivery times from there more easily than in Portsmouth, although I believe there were other local isssues that could not be resolved too.
The systems integration work is a massive job but I would imagine that they will migrate to a single platform soon. They are already shedding own labels. For example Lifeline seems to have been replaced by x-tools and CRC have taken DHB clothing’s

Evans have Castelli/Sky kit at vastly reduced prices: base layers down to £18/20 and Gabba 3s down to under £60.
Also Endura FS260 women's aero-gel gloves down to £7, really comfy, I can't see what makes them girly-specific so have bought a couple of pairs... lots of other big reductions on there too.

Edit: Gabba 3s are £54. If you don't mind advertising for the Murdochs that is a ridiculously low price for a quality bit of kit.

Clickbait post?

At time of writing - 1 hour after your post- the only Gabba 3 @ less than £60 out of all the available options is a black medium. ALL others are priced @ £150!
