Purchased a chainset via their [url= http://stores.ebay.co.uk/ScotbyCycles ]Ebay store[/url], was on a 'Buy it now or Best offer' type auction, haggled with 'em a bit to get a price we were both happy with, finalised the sale around 1pm yesterday. Chainset turned up this morning via DHL next day, lovingly packaged and in perfect described condition. Excellent chaps to deal with, highly recommended! 🙂

I used to work there, a long long time ago. When they were still in the little shop next to Kawasaki motorbikes.

They are now opposite the biscuit factory, aye

Have been singing their praises for years. Usually very competative on price and Simon is always very helpfull.

If you become a friend on facebook you get the headsup on some of their offers. I think an XT BB was about £20 posted the other week.

Hi Hobo 😆
You getting interested in the stuff called mountain biking again ❓
They sure have some cracking stock in at the moment. Could be some good Treks in their end of season sale. Wheelbase also have loads of new Treks in, looks like Trek have gone daft this year stocking the shops.
