Just received a frame from Westbrook Cycles.

Ordered it late Friday night, they dispatched it on Saturday morning and it arrived today, Tuesday morning first thing.

Great service and an amazing price too. £1499 for last years 586 frame with integrated seat post, RRP of £2500!!!

I havd never used them before but certainly will again.

Well done. :D

    Westbrooks are one of my LBS. Good set of guys to deal with, helpful, competative on price and willing to do a deal.

    They quite often have some cracking offers on bikes and frames. For example a few months ago they had some 2010 Canondale Super Six with SRAM Red for £2.5k, reduced from £4k. I was very tempted.

    I bought my old Cannondale during their sale via telephone, 25% off. I didn't have all the money when I called up, thought I'd give it a shot at putting half down before it sold but they kept it aside for me until the end of the week with no deposit and then sent it free of charge when I paid, arrived next day.

    They also quickly handled a warranty replacement on a groupset part for me.

    Really good experience on my part. Good shop.

    Agreed, I bought a bike from them last year, it was a great deal, they delivered it the next day in the price and I was 5 hours drive away, they were happy to take it back if I wasn't happy with it.
    The only problem i have with them is that they are so too far away from me to use as an LBS or for servicing.

    +1 for Westbrooks

    I'm not a local there, but every time I've been they seem to give me a discount and the last time I was cycling the North York Moors I bust a spoke coming down Carlton Bank, they trued up the wheel for nowt so I could get home.

    Great place 8)

    +1. Got my Scott Addict from them. They were very easy to deal with and flexible - I wanted the bottom bracket bearings swapped out and they did it FOC with no issues.
