Why is that better than bike discount who have it for 630 before vouchers?

Arch are the xc/trail rim, crest are the XC, podium are the weenie racer rims and flows the am/light dh rims. Had a quick look, I would confirm the hubs, arch is a good rim, bargain status will be hub dependant.

Well, it's obviously not.

Wiggle price matched a rock shox fork for me recently with bike-discount. Took them 3 days to get back to me with a promo code but a win-win with best price and local return / warranty address.

Not quite a bargain then eh

Bike Bike Deal and Frugal Rouleur are good for telling whether things are actually cheap, or just reasonably priced and other places are overpriced.

At least this is slightly constructive.

$580 delivered for my 2015 rev rtc3 from bike24 that arrived yesterday. I think tapered, kool side and wagon wheel sizes were the same.

 

[blacksp20]

God that's cheap. They're not even close to that price now

 

[moorey]

If you like purple hoops, that's a bargain. $505 delivered once vat is removed.

Man, the Nukeproof Rook SS is down under $800 on CRC. Getting really sorely tempted to get one and build it up as a 100mm trail bike like the other Rook in PYR.
