Not a huge range of products (i.e. no brakes, wheels), but worth a look if you are after anything.

ta.

Floating rotors are all 140mm, which is a shame

SS BB for £48 sounds pretty good.

I already have a Hope BB. Can't I reuse the tube from the current bracket to replace the 83mm version on a new one?

Good. Their reductions were unsustainable and probably quite damaging to smaller bike shops. Can't begrudge anyone who grabbed a bargain though!

thats the reason Hope stopped supply. Halfords procurment essentially went to Hope and said 'We're Britains biggest bike retailer, and we are going to have (another) try at being a proper bike shop. What prefferential discount are you going to give us?' (may not have been worded exactly like that, but you ge the idea).

Hope told them to do one, as they preffered to look after the LBS, so Halfords promptly started liquidating all their stock, hence all the discounts.

Well done Hope.

(And, err, thanks Halfords for my district 3 @ 30% off... 😳 )

Maybe some bargains to be had but Halfords are awful retailers IMO. Aside the fact the website consistently comes up with 'bad request' pages in Chrome for me, so far I have bought and paid for 6 in stock items over 2 orders and received only 3 of those items then had to chase for refunds 👿

whereas in the last 6 months Ive used Halfords more often than CRC, had bigger bargains and had better service.
