Is that a pair or just the rear? If it's a pair buy em, they're worth more than that used!

They'll convert to 142 but you'll probably need to buy the end cap kit- not expensive, £12-ish I think.

Crest Evo rear 26" for 168, front for 100 on the website. Seems like an excellent deal.

hmm, they seem to have no Flow front but two lots of 26" crest front.

I wonder if one should be a Flow front.

Called them...one has an error. If you look at the pictures you can see which is the Flow EX.

Ordered with 5% cashback (quidco) which makes then £258 for a set of Flow EX.

Now I don't need the set of Arch EX rims I bought a few months ago but have been sitting in the box (combination of no time and hesitation building my first set of wheels)

@jonny - yeah the rear is there. the front is a mistake. Apparently they have lots of mistakes they are sorting out at the moment. making a real drive to push their bike stuff apparently. I really didn't expect Halfords to sell hope stuff. It would seem CRC and Wiggle have some serious competition now.

The best "mistake" I saw on the Halfords site this week was a 10 speed XTR shadow + rear mech for £10.68 - my eyes nearly popped out of my head! If they had any in stock, would have upgraded to 10 speed there and then. Unfortunately now back at RRP minus 20%.

Rang my normal bike shop, who price matched them 🙂 even better as when I went in the Halfords store they were useless. That includes fitting and swapping tubeless tyres over etc. Thought I would give them the option before taking my business elsewhere, and glad I did...

Great find OP!

I think you're right - I have emailed Halfords as I'm after a 26 inch front Flow. Will report back.

Bloke from Halfords CS says

"The Flow model is 538092"

They don't appear to have updated the website though.
