I've been a naughty boy - ordered new tyres
« on: 02 April, 2008, 11:00:37 am »
A couple of these http://tinyurl.com/yt8bqk

I've lusted after them, ever since Vittoria announced them. Then decided I couldn't afford them, at over £20 each.

But wiggle have them for £12.99. Allegedly (none in stock).

You think that's bad?
I went to bed last night before completing my Wiggle order but partner had a p******e on his MTB due to hole in the tyre sidewall.
He also found the brake blocks on his 'commuter' bike were chewing the rear rim and used the last of my spare canti blocks to sort this.
His Tchibo jacket is failing so I'll probably replace it with an Altura and he wants a better mirror...

Well, he needs something to encourage him  go on all those CRISPs!

If I had none in stock I'd price them at £11.50. :D

Doesn't matter what Wiggle are allegedly charging if they don't have any. I'd give you some for nowt, if I had any.
