hey guys,

just wondering if people know of any decent trusted websites to buy new bike components from? im looking through some but don't want to use a dodgy one or ones that are gonna make me pay over the odds. there has to be a couple of gems out there for me to hunt down some bargains.

thanks

    Chain Reaction Cycles

    I mostly use Wiggle whenever I can.
  • Why use websites?? Support your LBS. Normally just as cheap and a friendly face to talk to as well.

    Ribble and merlin are nearly always the cheapest for components, Ribble are a bit slow, merlin are very quick but their stuff is often OE.

    Some of these places are LBS's - if not local to you. Eg Spa Cycles and the excellent High on Bikes.

    High On Bikes isn't a shop though.
