I've searched several online retailers (and continue to do so) but not able to find one.

Can someone recommend me an equivalent turbo that I can actually get now?

Resigned to having to spend more as I will have to get the mat and thong as extras :x

Here you go with another £20 off!!

Thanks...ordered!!!

Will follow up with a call tomorrow as I no longer trust the stock levels quoted online

Percy Vera

If they have no stock, and you live near an Evans they will price match.

DamonC

Evans are out of stock too.

I had 'bought' the kit at £235, but now I just need it so sod the difference

Glad I have seen this as this was the one I was going to order earlier today. DamonC can you let me know if the delivery is alright as I'll order it from the same place as long as they do actualy have it in stock

I have spoken to them this morning and they have physical stock.

Best order by phone and be insistent on checking for physical stock.

I've never needed the thong thing - drape an old teeshirt or rag over your stem.
Mats ? Havent you got an offcut of carpet or something ?

Do budget for a fan too - place it to one side of you slightly and most of the sweat wont fall on the bike anyway. Have fun.

Percy Vera

I used my own leather thong until it broke! :shock:

Now I just use a towel

DamonC

Thanks for the advice.

Despatched!!!! Go Winstanleys!!!!

Cougie, All wood floowing in my house im afraid, As it's part of the package im not to bothered, will come in handy as it has places for remotes, so can leave the IPOD in there and the Sky remote, I do also have a fan which is remote control so that will come in handy if im getting to hot or cold and dont want to get off the bike

DamoncC - How long did they say for delivery? 24hrs?

Thanks

You can buy my Jet Fluid Pro cheapish if you wish (and anywhere near Southampton or Somerset) . Only used once whilst I was away from my imagic.

edit - ah, read the rest of the thread and see you are now sorted.

Evans only price match if the other place has stock. On my last order they were particularly pedantic about this - it was a helmet, and the other place didn't have the specific colour and size combination in stock at the time, so they wouldn't match.

However they did price match on my Tacx Flow with Decathlon which saved me a fair bit

Arrived today

Let the pain begin! :P
