Beware of this UK bike shop.

It was discovered by a member of a different forum, but I thought I'd share.

Here is the link to the thread on the EMTB forum. It gives all the detail as to why it's a scam.

    Good spot, sadly won't be the last.
    Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    Someone on the other forum has discovered that a change has been made. If you CLICK on the link, it now takes you to a legitimate website, but if you TYPE in the exact same address, then it still goes to the original scam site. Clever bar stewards, but not clever enough!
