Thanks

    Yep. Good prices on tyres and groupsets. Delivery not bad at 3-4 days considering it's coming from Germany

    I've used them a few times now and had no problems. Even if you have to send something back they make it easy (they will send you a returns label etc).

    if I see anything from bike discount I want I just email Wiggle to do a price match. Wiggle then send you a discount code to align the price.

    Yes they are superb, I've ordered plenty of stuff from them, and even had a painless and incredibly free returns process I had to go through for some clothing when I ordered multiple sizes.

    I think it is free returns if the value of what you are ordering is in excess of a certain amount, might be 50 euros or something.

    Their prices are excellent though, and delivery was also fast and tracked all the way.

    Similarly fine experiences with both Rose and 4thebike.

    Thanks for all replies and interesting about Wiggle price match. There are some really good prices on the site and all seems above board.

  • With the Pound being strong v the Euro, European retailers are more competitive. It's certainly worth putting a few of them in your "favourites" to compare prices. Shipping costs can work against them but for more substantial orders the costs are reduced or even free.
