Sorry as this has probably been asked loads of times, but, I'm after a 31.6mm 420mm reverb.

Last week i'm sure I saw them on bikediscount for £162, but this week there at £192.

CRC seem to be back up to "normal" £250 prices.

Anyone know where I can get one for the £160 mark????

Thanks.

    On One have them for £199 without the bleed kit. Bike Components De had the 2011 for around £165 when I checked a couple of weeks ago.
    I'm over 6' and have quite a large head.

    They've gone up on bike components too now to £192.
    Interestingly though, they have the KS i900 at £128, second hand ones go for that much on t'bay.

    Got sick of waiting on phone for CRC, try again later....

    I decided to buy from LBS for £240, the savings of £30 (when you add in the carriage) was not worth it for me. I think if these go wrong they go back to the Shop rather than Rockshox.

    I'm glad I got the Bleed Kit as well because I made a pigs ear of the installation. To be fair to me the instructions with it are beyond poor.

    Agreed, but it doesn't take an engineer to work out what you need to do.

    You're right the worst thing is I work for an Engineering Company...I just had a couple of spare parts left over :shock:

    Just ordered one from bike discount for £173 delivered. Pic shows silver ring, but site states manufactured date 2012 so i'm hoping it will be the 2012 model.

    Edit, just rang them and spoke to a very nice german lady and she confirms they are 2012 oem versions hence the silver ring.

    I can vouch for bikediscount as well. Bought mine a month or 2 ago for £175 delivered and it was the 2012 model, as an added bonus it even came with the bleed kit although the website specifically said it wasn't included :D

    How long did it take to arrive?

    Fingers crossed I get a bleed kit too, although not too fussed as I live round the corner and ride with the guys from epic bleed, sure they'll sort me out.

    Ordered mine on a Thursday and it arrived on the Monday (so basically they were quicker than most UK based companies !!)
