    Chain Reaction Cycles - Worth Checking your $$$

    Good news, CRC have stated the change is due to the banks exchange rate and that the one displayed on the site is indicative. They do however recognise there was a problem with the initial transaction and have offered to a) refund 40 pound (subject to exchange rate) or b) 40 pound voucher. I...

    Chain Reaction Cycles - Worth Checking your $$$

    My Maths isn't great but $516-$494 = uhmmm isn't $60 ... Anywho Agreed, it's not $60, but add that $16 to the $40 difference that was refunded only 20seconds after the initial transaction, and it's pretty close. I don't have an issue with there being a discrepency between the 494 and the...

    Chain Reaction Cycles - Worth Checking your $$$

    XC Forks

    Just thought I'd throw in an up to date comment. I just upgraded from a 2006 Rockshox Dart 2 to a 2011 Reba dual air. I know anything would have been a marked improvement but at a weight saving of 800grms from the Dart 2's and a plushness which compares to my Queen ensemble I reckon they are...

    Portable Bike Stand for Year 12 MDP

    What do your kids ride?

    I must admit we just bought a generic BMX for monkey#1, since that time he's become far more interested in coming for 20 - 25kms rides with me so we are looking at the Giant series of 20" bikes for christmas. The question is 3speed internal hub, vs 6sp with a single up front vs full 18speed...
