Wiggle Australia price match plus 10% off promise

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

While we encourage everyone to support local bike shops... it's understandable people shop around on-line for deals from time to time.

Right now Wiggle.com.au have a great price promise running: for delivery to Australia, they will not only match, but promise to beat any price inclusive of delivery by 10%.

Note that CRC have up to 50% off Shimano this weekend, and with Wiggle pledging to beat any advertised price... you know what that means!

BTW, this covers everything Wiggle sell, I only mention Shimano as an example. Details on the promise are here:

T7 has an easter sale on...

Just a heads up... T7 appear to have an Easter Sale on:

http://www.torpedo7.com.au/

Their home page says, 20% off all non-sale items with the "SAVE20" code. Here's a link direct to the bike gear:

Enjoy!

Wheel Build

Hi guys,

After folding a front wheel I am looking to get a decent set built up to suit general use, XC, 100kg rider, 29" wheels.

I would welcome comment please on:
- Local(ish) wheel builder
- Ballpark cost to build (excluding parts)
- Most economic way to source rims/hubs/spokes
- Any other recommendations

Thank you all.

I don't generally promote bike stores but www.pushys.com.au have some good gear at good prices for sale. A good alternative to Torpedo and Cell. They are in Newcastle with a main distribution center in Brisbane. I picked up these shoes for $139, they put the price up today to $159, but still cheap at that price.
