    Depending what chainset you want, Merlin have stock, and if you order a couple of other things for £1 each (doesn't matter what) you'll get 10% so may be cheaper than Fudges
    Carlsberg don't make cycle clothing, but if they did it would probably still not be as good as Assos

    Merlins doesn't appear to be the full 2011 groupset (boxed)...

    Not sure on Sram groupsets, but it says 2011 - which items aren't? Admitedly it may be OEM and without boxes from Merlin, but I just throw the boxes away anyway

    OEM stuff often contains lesser quality chains, cables, etc... The Merlin set also has white hoods.

    The Merlin offer was for a 'basic' GXP BB and a 1070 cassette, the Fudge offer included a 1090 cassette and Ceramic BB.
    Spoke with Fudges who confirmed it was in stock ( he was looking at it!), so must be IT glitch.... Ordered :wink:
