brink . UK legit ?

had a look on companies house, may be over for a credit card purchase, those carbon wheels just seem really low priced (compared to rivals)

Same link on their Instagram with 29.4k followers so I'd assume it is all well and correct...

Could always ring them?

Yes they're legit I've used them before.

This could be an expensive PSA though. Do I need these wheels? Someone quickly list all the reasons that I shouldn't buy them.

They are a proper company with at least a couple of stores. They run the bike shop/workshop at Phoenix bike park not too far from me.

Also get them down to £949.05 if you sign up to their mailing list.

Same here. Just got a shock back from their service wing, Plush. (That's the name of it, not a description of the shock 🙂 )

thanks all, they certainly look legit, just those wheels  are back order on stif for £1280

@sharkattack only 5 pairs left in a 29 XD   :0)

not sure i have the money, my next post was going to be about tumble dryers heat pump or condenser, tumbledryers seem to have changed alot since my last one which i paid £120 for back in early 2000s

They actually bought a spare frame linkage from me via eBay recently so yeah they are legit. Looks a nice shop they have.

Absolutely legit, they are based just down the road from chicksands bike park should you want to pop in

Some bargain carbon wheels at merlin too

thanks @davros i could have sworn the DT swiss on merlin were 25mm internals last time i looked, these are 30mm's Ideal

Yep My Local shop - buy with confidence

Yep, I bought a set of those 30Sl Reserves from them a few week's ago. All good.

And ordered some of those XRC 1501s for the wife 🙂

Oh well, YOLO.

Anyone want to buy some perfectly good alloy wheels?

I've used Brink (nr Rowney Warren woods/ Chicksands) on a couple of occasions. Very helpful people.

They are my LBS, great place

Yep legit,

They tend to focus on the high end of the market. They are rarely cheap, but often have stuff other shops don't.

Goddamn those 1501s are tempting.

Yep, keep reminding myself I don't need them. Got some roval control which are brilliant and these would go nicely on another bike...

Brink are great. Bought my lads bike from there a few years ago. Bought some forks of them more recently and when they arrived, I decided they weren't for me and they managed to source what I wanted and swapped them out with no problems.

The delivery date on the Reserve wheels is the 27th of August.

Who knew FedEx even offered such a slow service?

The anticipation will drive me mad.

I was expecting DT Swiss 350 hubs on them but those pics have Industry9 by the looks of them.

Alloy MX wheels are on offer as well...

Reserve 30 SL AL / DT 350 Aluminium Wheelset MX / Mullet / SRAM XD & MICROSPLINE / 6 Bolt - £426.55 with the 5% discount code. Not bad given the warranty you get with them.

Yes, I would have 100% bought those if they were available last month. I just built my first mullet and the wheels came in a fair bit more expensive than those and I have zero warranty on the rims.

The Reserves are on sale because all the new ones are coming with a new DT 350 DEG hub. If you’re happy with the standard DT 350 with 36T or 54T then it’s a non issue.

But they aren’t going to be able to sell these at retail now.

Any one know the spoke count. 28 spoke wouldnt put me off if I needed any more wheels but I know quite a few that wouldn't want to take the risk

All Reserves (Carbon) are 28H, well I say all… the HD and SL. Maybe not the DH.

SL AL are 28

HD AL 32

Looks like FedEx were messing with me. That was fast...
