Just been looking at bikes on the net and this bike shop popped up with some nice bikes and half decent prices . It does say they have some shop spoilt bikes but not to sure what these are about . Anyone bought from these guys in the past ?

    Yep, they've been going for many years.

    Quite reputable.

    Good spot, i misread the title and wrote my previous reply in relation to Hargroves. I have not heard of Hargreaves cycles.

    Sorry I read it as Hargroves too.

    But they are a proper shop at least.

    Yes.

    I bought an end of line Synapse Adventure with SRAM Rival hydro for £795 from them last year.

    When I got to the shop to pick up the bike a few bits of it had been "borrowed" while it had been sitting in the box.

    I was sent away for a couple of hours and when I got back there was the bike complete with all its bits.

    I was very pleased with the result - proper bike shop with some good bargains.
