I’d say this is the bargain of the day !

I’ll still be in trouble though when they arrive though !

    God dammit I paid £100 more than that... That's ludicrously cheap!

    Wow - defo bargain at that price. Bought mine when they were £263

    At £163 I might even be tempted to buy a 2nd pair and stick them in the loft 'til the current ones expire.
  • Damn you. Just ordered a set that in no way do i need.

    Ooooh dear...they look very cheap!!
    I was going to wait till next summer and get some c24 wheels for my weekend Focus.
    Would the Zondas be a good upgrade from the stock Fulcrum Racing 5 wheels that are currently on there?
    I can then move them to the commuter!

    At that price...its kind of hard to ignore them to be honest!

    Happy to spread the word.
    And hopefully with the rest of the world buying them too I won’t be in as much trouble with the wife !
    (Yeah I know it doesn’t work like that but it helps me justify it to myself)

    Thanks Galatzo. Does anyone want to buy a pair of unused Aksiums that are coming on my new bike for the same amount?

    No, I didn't think so :lol:

    Thanks a lot Galatzo,

    Just ordered....the credit card wasn't expecting that one....but delighted to get such a high quality (and good looking) set of wheels for the weekend bike for such a low price!

    Cheers Golatzo - just ordered mine!

    I do actually need them though for a custom build I'm having done in the coming months, and I was going to leave it until nearer the time, but I couldn't pass this deal up.

    You should get comission - they must have sold about 6 sets just to us lot!

    Just happy to be popular :D

    Although there's wives shapening knives all around the country :shock:

    Mine are coming to work as per usual and seeing as I ride here I may just change them here and then turn up at home with them on rather that with a big box of trouble !

    I have ran these on my Caad8 for the past 18 months and they have been amazing.

    Im trying to resist buying a spare set that I really dont need as that is a stupid price !!!

    Make sure you get them nice and dirty before you arrive home, or she will clock them. :D

    I thought it was a mistake when I first saw it or that I was on Wiggle International getting an exVAT price.

    Did a quick Google first to see if there was any news on an improved 2015 version coming out soon but found nowt, not that I would have gone for a 2015 version probably costing £300 and 10 grams lighter and 10% stiffer.

    But they already do the two-way fit at considerabley more than standard clincher fit ?
    Never understood why the two-way fit wheels are so much more than standards, can't cost that much more to produce and limited market still for tubeless I'd say - tyre wise and people willing to try them.

    Mission accomplished !

    Or do you think Wiggle have seen they’ve made an error and pulled them ?

    Still showing 10+ of both options in stock about an hour ago which granted is not a lot in Wiggle sales volumes I’d guess so I am wondering if perhaps they have pulled them.

    Yeah, they havent just run out of stock, they have pulled the listing so it doesnt show up in seaches and if you go to the page manually it says the product is no longer available, not 'email me when in stock'.

    I wonder if they will fulfill any orders? They have been pretty good in the past but who knows...

    I just got word from Wiggle that they aren't gonna sell me a pair at that price and cancelled my order
