Pretty good price and spec'd bike. If you want a bike sooner rather than later don't wait around, order it now if it's in stock!
Could recommend other bikes but you won't be able to find any at the moment.0 -
I'd be careful about buying Calibre at the moment. Lots of complaints on their Facebook page of people trying to make contact/get a response from them.
I've been wanting to buy a spare mech hanger for my Bossnut for weeks... no stock anywhere...fortunately I don't actually need it but others need one and have unusable bikes. Btw, I love my Bossnut but.... I also love good customer service.
Easy to blame everything on covid but they don't seem to be replying to anyone at all.“You may think that; I couldn’t possibly comment!”

Thanks guys. The line 20 is £600, is the line 10 worth the 300 extra, from what I can see the major additional points are 140mm fork and dropper post. Don't really need the dropper post. I'm thinking to go for the line 20 unless anyone can talk me the other way..0

The cheaper one has non Boost forks, steeper head angle, non Boost quick release rear, 1x10 drivetrain. You get what you pay for.reaperactual said:Pretty good price and spec'd bike. If you want a bike sooner rather than later don't wait around, order it now if it's in stock!

No one cares which one you buy or is influencing your decision it's only advice based on facts.
Choose the bike that suits you, what you want to spend, how and where you will be riding it.

See the latest rumours about Go Outdoors before you commit yourself. No idea how this will affect Calibre bikes -support and spares etc. Blacks are selling Calibre but no idea what support they offer.“You may think that; I couldn’t possibly comment!”
